About Septic Systems

What is a Septic System?

A septic system is a vital component of your entire plumbing system. It is a small-scale onsite wastewater treatment plant that processes household waste. This waste is also known as effluent.

As wastewater from the home enters the septic tank, effluent is moved from the septic tank and enters the absorption trench. The effluent disperses  as it is absorbed into the soil surface.

Meanwhile, the oil and grease will float to the top of the tank, known as scum. Your septic tank will prevent the sludge and scum from leaving the tank and traveling into your drain field.

The Functions of a Septic Tank

Your septic tank is where the first stage of wastewater treatment begins. The conditions in the tank are ideal for bacterial growth. The bacteria will use organic waste as food.

After processing, it settles to the bottom of the tank. Since the fats and grease are lighter than water, these continue to float on top of the water.

The area between the sludge and scum is the clear zone. This zone is where treated wastewater moves out from the tank. The gases generated are generally vented through the property’s plumbing vents.
