What is a Septic System?

A septic system is an onsite waste-water treatment system that processes and purifies household waste (effluent). Effluent consists of “black-water” (toilet waste) and “grey-water” (kitchen sink, bathtub and laundry waste). If your home is not connected to a public sewer line, you must use a septic system.

How does a septic system work?

Anytime you flush the toilet or run water down a drain in your house, it flows into a pipe that leads to your septic system. Solid waste sinks to the bottom of the septic tank, where it sits for 24 to 48 hours and gets broken down by bacteria. After the effluent is broken down, it empties, along with the liquid waste, into the drain field and is absorbed into the soil as fertilizer. Greases, oils, and fats float to the top of the tank, where a scum layer is formed. This scum cannot be broken down and therefore must be pumped out of the tank every 1 to 3 years, depending on how fast it builds up.
