Understanding Your Septic System

Waste from fixtures in a home collect into a main pipe, usually four-inch, that flows into the septic tank. The majority of tanks are constructed from concrete and generally measure approximately 8.5 feet long, roughly 5.5 feet wide, and about 4.5 feet high. The intake is usually three inches the outlet. A barrier in the tank captures floating solids in the inlet side. There is generally an outlet tee, sometimes with a filter, to prevent solids from getting into the field lines. Solids accumulate at the bottom where they are digested by bacteria and enzymes. Clear water flows through the outlet filter and tee to the field lines, which are typically four-inch, perforated, corrugated pipe. This allows the effluent water to filter through the soil to be subsequently purified by normal soil filtration and bacteria before seeping down into groundwater. The solids accumulate at the bottom of the tank until the tank is serviced.
