Aerobic Maintenance
We service aerobic septic systems on a schedule and check the aerator, pump, alarm and spray heads each visit. Conventional systems get routine checks of the tank and lateral lines.

Septic tank pumping takes out the sludge and scum that build up in your tank. Eastern Oklahoma Septic Services pumps and cleans septic tanks for homes in Sapulpa and across the Tulsa area. We pump conventional tanks and the tanks on aerobic systems. While the tank is open, we check it and its baffles, then tell you what we see.
Pumping on a schedule keeps sludge in the tank and out of your lateral lines, also called the drain field. Solids that reach the lines can clog them, and lateral line repair is a bigger job than a pump-out. We are based in Sapulpa and pump tanks about 40 miles around it, across Creek County and the Tulsa area. We also handle repairs and septic system installation in Sapulpa and nearby towns.
Tell us about the new install or what your septic or aerobic system needs, and where the property is. We look at the job and put the quote in writing.
A septic tank holds wastewater while the solids settle out. Heavy solids sink and form sludge, and grease floats to the top as scum. Baffles hold both layers in the tank, and only the liquid flows on to the lateral lines.
We pump the tank until it is empty. Then we check the baffles and look over the tank for cracks. We tell you what we saw. If a part needs fixing, we put the septic system repair quote in writing.
Write down the date of each pumping and what we found. The Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) publishes a homeowner guide with a maintenance record page. That record helps you time the next pumping.
The DEQ homeowner guide says to pump every three to five years under average conditions. The right interval depends on the tank's size and how many people use it.
The guide charts a 1,000 gallon tank as an example. With two people in the home, it lists six years between pumpings. With four people it lists three years, and with six people, two. The guide says the chart should not take the place of measuring the sludge.
Some habits fill a tank faster. The guide says a home with a garbage disposal should plan on pumping every one to two years. Paper towels, cat litter, grease and coffee grounds stay in the tank, because its bacteria cannot readily break them down. A day of back-to-back laundry can push solids out toward the lateral lines.
An aerobic system starts with a trash tank, where solids settle out. Next, an air pump bubbles air through the wastewater to treat it. The treated water then goes out through the spray heads.
Solids build up in the trash tank much like they do in a conventional tank. Oklahoma's extension service says to check them at least every six months. It says to pump the tank when the sludge reaches 40 percent of its liquid capacity.
We pump the tanks on aerobic systems as well as conventional tanks. The aerator and the spray heads get their own checks during aerobic septic system maintenance.
