The purpose of regular scheduled maintenance on a septic system is to remove any solids from the tank. 

How often should the tank be pumped?

A septic system should be pumped generally every 3-5 years. There are other things that also need to be considered, for example

The older the system the more often it will need to be serviced. Over the years a bio-mat forms on the bottom and the sides of the leaching field. This is from the bacteria and particles that are suspended in the effluent water and float out into the leaching field naturally.

Every septic system requires periodic pumping to prevent solids from plugging system which could cause the septic to back up in you home or spill over in your yard. While a septic system should be pumped generally every 3-5 years, the frequency of the pumping varies depending on the usage of the system.
