What is a Septic Tank?

A septic tank is an underground wastewater treatment structure that collects and processes household or commercial waste. It separates solids, allowing wastewater to flow into a drainage field while breaking down organic material naturally. Regular maintenance is crucial for ensuring your system operates properly and avoiding expensive repairs.

How Does a Septic Tank Work?

When wastewater enters the septic tank, it separates into three layers:

  • Solids (Sludge): Heavy waste settles at the bottom of your tank, where it decomposes over time.
  • Liquid Waste (Effluent): The middle layer flows out to the drain field for further treatment.
  • Scum: Oils and grease float to the top and are prevented from exiting the tank.

Regular septic tank service and pumping keep the system working efficiently, preventing blockages and failures.

What Are the 3 Types of Septic Systems?

Choosing the right septic system depends on your property and soil conditions. We install and maintain:

  1. Conventional Septic Systems – The most popular kind, using a tank and drain field to naturally treat wastewater.
  2. Aerobic Treatment Units (ATUs) – These use oxygen to break down waste more efficiently, ideal for smaller properties.
  3. Mound Systems – Designed for areas with high water tables or poor soil conditions, using an elevated drainage field.

We help you select the best system for your site, ensuring compliance with local regulations.
