Yes, there are several steps you can take to help keep your septic system working properly. First, make sure that it is properly installed and maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Second, check for any signs of trouble, such as odors or slow draining. Third, reduce the amount of grease and food scraps going into the drainfield by using compostable materials instead. Finally, contact a professional if you suspect that your septic system may be malfunctioning.
