If the sink and shower are both draining slowly and there is a smell around the pit in your garden, septic tank pumping in Şile is no longer something you can put off. A septic pit collects the waste water of a building that is not connected to the sewer network, and over time it has to be emptied by a vacuum truck. At Cantley, we pump septic tanks 24/7 in the districts of Istanbul.

In Şile, the pit of a flat where an elderly couple lives does not fill at the same rate as the pit of a café or restaurant that gets crowded in summer. The couple's pit fills slowly, so they usually notice the problem only from the smell or from slow drains. In a business, the waste jumps on busy days and the pit may need pumping earlier than expected. We first open the cover and look at the level and smell of the waste, share what we find with you, and then do what is needed.

## Why does a septic pit fill differently in Şile?

In houses with gardens in Şile, the pit cover is often hidden under soil, gravel or a plant pot. Finding the cover before the crew arrives and keeping free the road where the large truck will park makes the job easier. If the pit is in the common area of a housing complex and the hose will cross a shared path, it is a good idea to tell the management beforehand.

In small guesthouses in Ağva, weekend crowds can fill the pit quickly. In the summer housing complexes in central Şile, sand washed off after a day at the beach and carried into the drains puts extra load on the pit. Checking how full the pit is before the season opens lowers the risk of overflow in busy periods.

## Frequently asked questions

### How often should a septic pit be pumped in Şile?

There is no fixed schedule that applies to everyone. The interval depends on the volume of the pit, the number of people using it and the type of pit. In a sealed pit the waste leaves only by pumping, while in a leaching pit part of it seeps into the ground. At the first pumping, we look at how full the pit is and suggest an interval that suits you.

### Is it right to wait if there is a smell from the pit cover?

No. If a smell or a stain that keeps the ground wet continues, waiting makes the problem bigger. Having the pit checked, rather than blaming rain or hot weather, helps you tell the real cause. If you see liquid seeping from the edge of the cover, keep people away from that area and let us know.

### What should not be thrown into the toilet?

Only waste water and toilet paper should go into the toilet. Wet wipes, cloths, sanitary pads and cooking oil should not. They form sediment in the pit, harden the sludge at the bottom and lead to more waste coming out at every pumping. Chemical solvents can also upset the balance in the pit, so do not try a product yourself.
