WHAT IS A SEPTIC SYSTEMS PURPOSE IN THE HOUSEHOLD?
The purpose of the tank is to treat household wastes. The tank treats the waste by the water falling to the bottom, the solids that are lighter float to the top and the heavier waste/sludge goes to the bottom.The sludge/solids that fall to the bottom must be treated with a Septic System treatment to convert these materials into liquids which then will flow to the drain field.
