A septic tank is an underground wastewater treatment system commonly utilized in areas without access to municipal sewage systems. The process begins when wastewater from your home enters the tank via a main drainage pipe. Inside the tank, the wastewater separates into three layers: scum (oils and grease) on top, liquid effluent in the middle, and sludge (heavy solids) at the bottom. Bacteria in the tank break down some of the organic matter. The liquid effluent then flows into a drain field where it's filtered through soil before reaching groundwater. Regular maintenance, including pumping every 3-5 years, is crucial for optimal system performance.
