How much liquid should be left on the bottom of a septic tank after
being cleaned 1", 2" or more?




Odd, the fill mine with water after pumping the sludge out. The tank
could be damaged if left completely empty, I am told.


You were told a lie.


A light weight plastic or metal tank in a high water table area might want
to float if it is not weighed down with plenty of soil overburden or full of
water.
