Septic systems vary a lot from area to area, depending on many factors, including the number of people in the household or business, the type of soil, the size of the land parcel, type of water in the vicinity, and also the slope of the building site.

While there are many types of septic systems, the 3 most common conventional systems include the SEPTIC TANK, the CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM, and the CHAMBER SYSTEM.

1. SEPTIC TANK:

Septic tanks can be made out of concrete, metal, or types of plastic. They are buried in the ground, and are watertight. The heavy solids will stay at the bottom of the tank, while lighter solids and liquids stay on top. The solids will stay in the tank, and the wastewater goes to a drainfield to be treated and dispersed.

2. CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM:

A conventional septic system will include a tank, a trench, or a drainfield. Many times this type of system is used for smaller businesses and homes.

3. CHAMBER SYSTEMS:

Chamber systems are extensively used, and can include a variety of forms such as open-bottom tanks, fabric-wrapped pipe, or other synthetic materials. These systems that do not use gravel can leave less of an environmental footprint than other systems. The chamber system uses chambers that are connected, and the areas above and around the system are filled with soil. Wastewater travels from the septic tank to the chambers, where it then disperses into the soil.
