Understanding Your Septic System

All drainage from appliances in a house collect into a single pipe, usually four-inch, that flows into the septic tank. Commonly, tanks are made of concrete and generally measure 8-1/2’ long, 5.5 feet wide, and about 4.5 feet high. The intake is usually 3” the outlet. A barrier in the tank traps floating solids in the inlet side. Usually, there exists an outlet tee, sometimes with a mesh, to prevent solids from clogging the field lines. Solids accumulate at the bottom where they are decomposed by bacteria and enzymes. Liquid effluent flows through the outlet filter and tee to the field lines, which are typically 4” diameter, perforated, corrugated pipe. This allows the wastewater to filter through the soil to be further cleaned by normal soil filtration and bacteria before draining into groundwater. The solids accumulate at the bottom of the tank until the tank is serviced.
