FAQs

How does a septic tank system work?
A septic system separates and breaks down household wastewater on-site, using a tank followed by a dispersal or treatment area. Solids settle in the tank while liquid moves on for further treatment or absorption into the ground.
What factors affect whether a property can have a septic system installed?
Soil type, available land size, slope and proximity to waterways or bores all affect whether a septic system can be installed and what type suits the site. A site assessment is usually needed to confirm what's possible.
Why does septic system maintenance matter?
Regular maintenance helps a septic system continue working effectively and reduces the risk of overflow or environmental issues. Neglected systems are more likely to develop problems that affect the whole property.
