Septic Systems

Septic systems can be thought of as individual, small-scale sewage treatment systems typically used in homes or businesses that cannot connect to municipal sewer systems. In these circumstances, all wastewater treatment must occur onsite in an individually designed septic system. Septic systems consist of two parts, treatment and disposal, which work together to purify wastewater effluent.
