I've had a septic system for 15 years and never had it pumped out.
Yet I see neighbors pumping theirs every 3 years.
All I put down mine is crap and TP and pee (sorry for being blunt).
1. Pee just drains away.
2. Crap (I assume) dissolves itself (bacteria) over time.
3. But what about the TP?
Does the TP dissolve like the crap dissolves?
Or does the TP eventually fill the tank up?
(Why doesn't mine fill up then?)


There's a sceptic tank additive you can get at a hardware store that helps
break down solid waste.



Why not just drink the additive and it will get into the septic system that
way? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

An sdditive for a sceptic tank seems suspicious to me. It probably
doesn't work anyway.
