Signs of a Failing Septic System

Your septic system consists of two main parts – the septic tank and the drain field. Wastewater enters the septic tank through a chamber, where the solid waste settles on the bottom, while the scum floats to the top. The scum is moved to another chamber by moving water until it is finally disposed into the drain field. Throughout the process, the waste is anaerobically decomposed.

How to Tell If Your System Is Failing:

• Sewage is backing up into the home
• Your tank is too full of solid waste
• Bright, green grass appears around drain field
• Puddles of water appear around septic tank/ in the basement
• There is a strong odor coming from the tank

At Mr. Rooter® Plumbing, we recommend you have your septic tank pumped every 3-5 years. If you see signs of a failing septic system, contact our Savannah plumbers today.
