How Your Septic System Works
A septic system is a type of on-site wastewater treatment system that is designed to treat and dispose of household waste. It is composed of two main components: a septic tank and a drain field.
The septic tank is a watertight container made of concrete, plastic, or fiberglass that collects and stores wastewater from the home. As wastewater flows into the tank, it separates into three layers: solids settle to the bottom, oil and grease float to the top, and treated effluent forms in between. Bacteria living within the tank break down some of these solids, but heavier material eventually builds up and must be pumped out periodically by a qualified technician.
The second component of a septic system is the drain field—a shallow network of perforated pipes that are buried in gravel trenches in your backyard. After leaving the tank, wastewater flows through the pipes where it is further processed by natural bacterial activity. This process helps reduce contaminants before they enter groundwater or other nearby surface waters. The soil also filters out unwanted particles as the water slowly infiltrates back into the ground.
The key to successful operation of any septic system lies in its maintenance routine. In addition to having your tank pumped every 3–5 years (depending on usage), you should avoid putting anything besides biodegradable materials down your drains—things like cooking oils can clog your pipes while chemicals such as bleach can kill off helpful bacteria inside your septic tank. With regular maintenance and proper use, you can protect your health and preserve groundwater for generations to come!
