Droughts & Septics

Surviving The Dry Spell

The year 2023 delivered tough drought conditions in many areas of the Midwest. Did you know that a well-maintained septic system is a valuable asset to your property and the environment during drought conditions? A properly functioning septic system undergoes natural biological processes that cleanse, restore, and return wastewater to the environment. Septic systems play a vital role in promoting healthy, natural, and essential processes on our planet.

Here's how it works. When wastewater exits your home, it remains in the septic tank for an adequate period, allowing solids to settle at the bottom and oils and greases to rise to the top. The remaining water, known as effluent, then either flows by gravity or is pumped to the drainfield. The effluent drains through the soil, effectively removing bacteria and naturally restoring the water. A properly functioning septic system repurposes and restores water into the environment. How cool is that?
