Frequently Asked Septic Tank Systems Questions

In a septic tank system, wastewater from toilets, sinks, showers, and other household fixtures flows into the septic tank, where solids settle to the bottom and fats, oils, and grease float to the top. Bacteria in the tank break down the organic matter, converting it into liquid and gas. The liquid effluent then flows out of the tank and into the drainfield, where it is further treated and absorbed into the soil.

The frequency depends on the size of the tank, the number of occupants in the household, the volume of wastewater generated, and other factors. We generally recommend that septic tanks be pumped every 3 to 5 years to remove accumulated solids and prevent system failure.

  • Slow-draining sinks, showers, or toilets
  • Foul sewage smells, especially from your plumbing or around the area where your septic tank is buried
  • Sewage backups through your plumbing
  • Pools of standing water in your landscaping
  • Gurgling sounds coming from your plumbing
  • Greener grass near where your septic tank is buried (leaking sewage can act as a fertilizer)
