Septic Systems in Winter Haven – There are a lot of properties throughout the country that rely on septic systems to process and house waste. They are more common in rural areas where the distance is too far to connect to a central sewer processing plant. A septic system has multiple components, and each plays an important role in processing the waste. When you flush a toilet, the waste and liquid go through the pipes and into the septic tank. The size of the tank will depend on the volume of waste produced by the building, so commercial properties tend to have larger tanks than residential homes.
The septic tank contains bacteria that can process and separate solids from liquids, and the liquid layer moves through into the drain field. Some septic systems also have grease traps that can catch oils and other grease from the waste, preventing clogs. If too much grease moves through the system, it can cause the tank to become overloaded. The drain field contains a series of perforated pipes that allow the liquid to seep through and filter through gravel. From there, clear liquid can reenter the soil.
The components of septic systems must all be working properly in order to protect the environment and avoid contamination.
