Septic & Well Water Services in Alpharetta, GA

Below are illustrations of how most septic tanks are set up. 1000 gallon tanks are approximately 10'5 long and 5'4 wide. Most septic tanks have 2 lids (with a metal handle) on both ends of the tank. Waste water from your home flows into the tank. Solids then separate from the liquid. Things such as soap suds and grease, float to the top of the tank to form a scum layer. The baffles prevent the scum layer from exiting into the drain field. The liquids will then go into the drain field (also called fingers) while the heavier solids sink to the bottom. Most of the solids are broken down by bacteria. Solids form a layer of sludge that needs to be pumped out on a regular basis.
