Frequently asked in Lexington-Fayette

How does a septic tank actually work?

In Lexington-Fayette, your septic tank is a crucial part of your home's wastewater system. It's a buried, watertight container that holds sewage from your toilets and drains. Inside the tank, solids settle to the bottom, forming sludge, while lighter materials like grease float to the top as scum. Bacteria naturally present in the tank begin to break down some of the solid waste. The liquid effluent then flows out of the tank to a drain field for further treatment and dispersal into the soil. It's a natural process designed to handle household wastewater effectively.
