Everyone needs a way to manage household waste. If your home isn't connected to a municipal sewage network, installing a septic system may be the best option. To get you excited about the installation, here's an overview of the benefits you'll enjoy once the unit is in place.

How Will a Septic System Benefit You?

1. Environmentally Friendly 

A septic system has a drain or leach field. After being treated in the tank, wastewater is released into this series of pipes so that the soil can absorb it. Soil filters out the contaminants from wastewater and returns it to the water table for reuse. This is an effective way to clean and recycle water naturally. Local vegetation and wildlife will benefit from its continuous replenishment, making your yard lush and vibrant.

2. Cost-Effective

Installing a septic system is more cost-effective than laying down pipes for a sewage system. Once the unit is set up, you won't have to worry about monthly sewage bills or taxes. The only recurring expenses will be for the occasional pumping and repair, as discussed in more detail below.

3. Low-Maintenance 

After septic installation, there are certain items you shouldn’t pour down the drains because they cause clogs. Coffee grounds, pasta, rice, cat litter, oil, grease, and fat are a few examples. 

Other than that, these systems are generally simple to maintain. In general, you can expect to only need annual inspections and pumping every three to five years. With this upkeep, most systems last between 20 and 40 years.
