[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 57281, member: 816"] i was gonna ask... do you have a drain field? if so and its functioning, once a year is way too much for a lake lot. and when he says he pumped 750 gallons of shit that can be misleading. if you have 1500 gallon tank and the outlet to the drain field is midway up in that tank, then he is gonna pump 750 gallons out anytime the tank is full enough to be emptying into the field. it ain't all gonna be shit though. most of it is black water. as long as the drain field is functioning, then the sludge level is really all you need to be concerned about. and that shouldn't need attention more than every 2-4 years. now, if you have no drain field, thats a different story... once a year would be minimal... or whenever the shit starts backing up into the cabin or on the lawn. ;) [/QUOTE]
