What happens in lack of mainitenance?
Solids build up in the septic tank to a point that debri passes into the laterat lines and attaching itself to the insides of the pipe. Waste water is not applied evenly to the field, instead the first pipe fills and then the second and so on until the first is dry enough to take on more water. Eventually the first pipe will fill with sludge stopping water flow into that pipe. At this point the second pipe becomes the first pipe in line and is doomed to fail like the first. This will continue until only one or two pipes exist, at which time so much pressure is put on the system with each flush of the toilet, with each shower and with each load of laundry that the waste water has only one of two options surface or backup into the house. Surfacing is the lesser of both evils. The only solution at this point is replace the lateral lines. There have been people in the past try to convince homeowners that they can blow out the lines it will solve the problem. This is only a temporary fix. T
