1. Clogging of the system
Septic tank clogging is one of the most common problems that can lead to serious consequences if not addressed in a timely manner. The main function of a septic tank is to separate solid waste from liquids, where the solid waste settles to the bottom and the treated water is gradually drained to a drain field. If non-biodegradable materials (e.g., paper towels, napkins, plastic), fats or oils enter the system, it can lead to a buildup of waste that clogs pipes or the drainage system.
