How's that for a title!!
Serious question here though, hoping for some insight for any of you in the know.
Thanks in advance! Love this site!
What would be an average number of gallons of Shiite that would need to be pumped each yr..or maybe not need to be pumped each yr?
1. We had a 1500 gallon septic tank system installed at our lake lot late May this year We decided to go with the 1500 gallon for any future cabin build.
2. We(just the better half and I) have a park model type camper on lot.(no washer, disposal hook ups)
3. 90% of the time it is just her an I there on most weekends in the summer.
4. We have our own well for H20. No H20 leaks from any connections.
I just had it pumped as I wanted a ball park figure how full that 1500 would get on what I consider an average summer of usage. The guy who pumped it told me it was about half full..ie 750 gallons..Now I know I am full of Sh*t...but seriously..does that amount sound reasonable for a summer of 2 people using it every other weekend? Or is the guy wanting my business each year? I mean..we have a lake I use to bathe so didn't even use shower all that much.
I did some checking and can understand like a family of 4 ..with teenagers showering multiple times daily using that much.. so.. that's the question.
Is that amount in line with a family of 2 for the summer?
Thanks!
