Septic Tank Pumpout
Hi everyone. We had someone come out to pump out our septic. The guy pumped out only from the outlet side of the tank and not the inlet side. The outlet side didn't have any solids and it was mostly liquid. Our house was built in 1993 if it matters.
In the past the person coming out has pumped from the inlet side where I have seen all the solids. My concern is that they only pumped out the filtered liquid and not all the solids and sludge from the inlet side. Is my concern valid?
Edit 1: I summarized my concerns to the receptionist. She forwarded the message to the owner who just called me. The actual owner was really reasonable and listened to my concerns. He said he would address the issues directly with the employee and personally come out next week to pump out the inlet side. I'm not going to pursue any sort of other action. I told the owner that I would take him at his word that he will address the issues with this employee. He also stated normally they would pump out both the inlet and outlet sides of the tank. He was surprised by the employees behavior and it seems like maybe he was having a bad day.
