→‎Septic Tank Operation and Maintenance

#When you are satisfied that the bottom half of the tank does not leak, backfill around the tank to just below the current level of the water. The weight of the soil around the tank will equalize the weight of the water pushing against the sidewall of the tank.

#Repeat the above steps for the top half of the tank. When the top half is leak free, back fill with the remaining soil. Remember that inlet and outlet pipes from the tank must also be sealed to the tank. Roofing tar or mortar are good products for sealing the holes where the pipes enter and exit the tank.
