The septic distribution box (aka D-box) connects the effluent line to the network of leach lines in the absorption system, or to seepage galleys or pits, and is used to regulate the rate of flow to the lines.

For added protection to your drain field, as well as providing peace of mind, your septic system may benefit by installing a filter to the outlet tee in order to reduce the amount of suspended solids leaving the tank.

Garbage disposals are not recommended for homes with septic systems. The finely ground products will float on the surface of the water and make their way into and clog lines. Consider composting vegetable matter and disposing of animal by-products.

According to the USDA, the main reason a drainage bed fails is because of improper septic tank maintenance. This, in turn, causes the soil absorption system to clog because of a buildup of solids throughout the system.

If you are putting your home on the market, it is always a good idea to have the septic tank pumped before you begin showing the house. Not only does this prevent back up or overflow issues, it is also a good time to check for any problems the system may have.

Be careful using anti-bacterial soaps and detergents in your daily routines. Their chemical makeup destroys the bacteria in your septic system that helps to breakdown waste materials. Using regular soap and rubbing thoroughly will do the trick and not inhibit the septic system.

If you have faucets that drip or toilet tanks that leak, you will need your septic system pumped more frequently. These seemingly minor problems add to daily water usage and contribute to more rapid filling of the tank.

Septic tanks have at least two chambers that work in unison to separate sewage from effluent before sending it to a leach field. If you notice an odor coming from the leach field, there is a problem somewhere in the system.

If your septic tank is constantly filled to within a foot of the top, it may be time to consider replacement. Pumping it out is a temporary fix and, besides delaying the inevitable, more serious problems could arise.

03/04/2021

If the septic tank is suspect, whether due to age or capacity, you should have it pumped out before and after periods of heavy use to both avoid a backup and to restore the system to more manageable levels.

As important as trees and shrubs are for the environment and for your home’s look, their roots can wreak havoc with septic systems. Before planting, locate the tank and lines. Then consider the species being planted and locate them far enough away from the system so its roots do not invade it.

Waiting too long to clean a septic tank can result in more damage than just a sewage backup into your home. The inside of the tank can corrode or the leach field can become polluted.
