Understand what’s underground

How does a septic system work?

Follow the flow from your home to the tank, the drain field and the soil.

Conventional septic system cutaway: wastewater travels from the home to a tank with floating scum, liquid and settled sludge, then through a distribution box into a drain field and the soil below.

  1. 1

    From your home

    A main drain carries wastewater from household fixtures to the buried tank.

  2. 2

    Inside the tank

    Solids settle as sludge; oils float as scum. The liquid between them moves toward the outlet.

  3. 3

    Into the drain field

    Partially treated liquid is distributed through the field’s piping.

  4. 4

    Through the soil

    Unsaturated soil receives and further treats the liquid as it moves downward.

Your questions, answered

Before you schedule.

A clear scope makes the next step easier. Let us know if you have questions about the visit.

Why can the price vary so much?

The amount of excavation, access, property conditions and system requirements affect the project.

Is drain field replacement the same as replacing the tank?

No. The tank and drain field are different parts of the system. The evaluation should identify which work is needed.
