Conventional Septic Systems

Choose a New Conventional Septic System

A failed septic system can contaminate ground water with pollutants like nitrogen, phosphorous, and disease-causing bacteria and viruses. A septic system that's properly installed by our certified installers is not only convenient, but it will also effectively process all of these pollutants, protecting your family's health and the environment for generations to come.

Main Components of Your Septic Tank

  • The pipe(s) from your home where all of your wastewater and greywater exit
  • The septic tank, a watertight container where solids settle and form sludge at the bottom of the tank and fats, oil and grease collect as scum on top, and liquid septage forms a middle layer
  • The bacteria in the tank that feed on the sludge and scum to slow build-up of those layers
  • The drain field that provides even dispersement of the septage that flows out of the tank
  • The soil, which filters out contaminants before the wastewater eventually returns to the groundwater
  • The vegetation on top of the drainfield that helps to soak up the filtered water via transpiration
  • And even the sun and wind, which further aid the system through evaporation 
Protect your system by having it pumped every three to five years, use water efficiently, don't dispose of household hazardous wastes or fats/oils/grease in sinks and toilets, don't flush solids such as feminine hygiene products or wet wipes, and maintain your drain field with proper vegetation and drainage.

Protect Your Septic System

By following the simple steps listed above, you can delay costly repairs or replacement. The expense of having to replace a failing or failed system is much more costly than maintaining your system in the first place.
