FAQ
How do septic tanks work to manage wastewater?
Septic tanks collect and treat wastewater on-site by separating solids from liquids. Solids settle in the tank while liquids flow into a drainage area for further treatment in the soil. Naturally occurring bacteria help break down waste over time. Proper operation depends on correct system design, regular care and suitable usage.
What are common signs that a septic system is not working properly?
Warning signs can include slow draining fixtures, unpleasant odours or pooling water near the drainage area. Gurgling sounds in pipes may also indicate airflow or blockage issues. In some cases, unusually green grass around the system can signal leaks. Addressing these signs early helps prevent larger system failures.
How can septic tanks be maintained to avoid problems?
Regular inspections help identify sludge buildup, component wear or drainage issues before they escalate. Septic systems benefit from appropriate waste disposal and avoiding excess water use. Pumping schedules vary depending on system size and usage. Ongoing care supports system longevity and reduces the risk of environmental impact.
