Everyday habits that protect your system

Your septic system handles everything that goes down the drains in your Hutto home. Using less water, spacing out loads of laundry and skipping the garbage disposal all reduce the load. Keep the area over the drain field planted in grass, and know where your tank lid is so pumping visits are quick. Records of past service make future repairs and home sales easier.

Early septic warnings Hutto homeowners notice

The first signs in Hutto are usually subtle. A toilet that takes an extra second to clear, a faint smell near the tank after rain, or a patch of grass that stays greener than the rest. Each one on its own may be nothing. Two or three together mean it is time to have the tank and drain field checked.
