A septic tank should be inspected and emptied every 3 to 5 years by a professional. How do you know if a septic tank is ready to be drained? Well, this can be determined if the drains are tanking forever to drain, if you hear gurgling water near the setup, bad smells, and if there’s a pool of water over the septic tank. Small septic tanks take about 30 to 45 minutes to empty, medium septic tank take about 1 hour, large septic tank take and hour to two, and extra large septic tanks take 2 to 3 hours. This time may increase or reduce depending on the situation. A professional septic tank emptying company should be in a position to tell you how long the project should take.
