If you don’t pay a utility bill for using a local sewer system, you probably have a septic tank on your property. Buried beneath the ground in your yard, this state-of-the-art water treatment system holds liquid and solid waste from your plumbing, treats it, and pumps it back out into the ground to return to an aquifer. To help you better understand your septic tank, A-1 Septic Tank & Drain Service in Coldwater, MS, will provide you with a short introduction to this extremely important component of your property.

Unlike a cesspool, septic tanks treat wastewater and return it back to the water table. When they’re maintained properly, solid waste is left to accumulate in your tank, while the treated water exits the tank and enters the drainage field, where it’s absorbed by the ground and sent back into the aquifer. Maintaining a septic tank is easy: All you have to do is schedule routine inspections from a septic tank cleaning company, which will check for any damage and pump out your system when it’s full.

In a matter of time, your home or office will be ready to enjoy the benefits of having a septic tank.
