What Are Onsite Septic Systems?

Onsite septic systems are wastewater treatment systems installed directly on your property to manage and treat household sewage. These systems typically consist of:

  • A Septic Tank: Collects and separates solid waste from liquids.
  • Drainage Fields: Filters and disperses treated water back into the soil.
  • Secondary Treatment Systems (where required): Provides advanced filtration for cleaner water discharge.

Designed for properties not connected to municipal sewerage systems, onsite septic systems offer a cost-effective and sustainable solution for managing waste.

Maintenance and Servicing of Onsite Septic Systems

Regular maintenance is critical to ensuring your onsite septic system operates efficiently and lasts for decades. This includes periodic inspections to check for any blockages, leaks, or wear in components such as the septic tank and drainage field. Pumping out the septic tank every 1–3 years, depending on usage, is essential to remove accumulated solids and prevent overflow. Additionally, using water efficiently and avoiding the disposal of harmful substances like grease or harsh chemicals can minimise stress on the system and reduce the need for frequent repairs.

FAQs About Onsite Septic Systems

  1. How often should I have my septic system serviced?
    Septic systems typically need servicing every 1–3 years, depending on household size and system capacity. Regular maintenance helps prevent blockages and extends the life of your system.
  2. What are the signs of a failing septic system?
    Common signs include slow drains, unpleasant odours, soggy spots in your yard, or sewage backups. If you notice any of these issues, contact a professional immediately.
  3. Can a septic system handle all household waste?
    No, items like grease, oils, harsh chemicals, and non-biodegradable materials should not be flushed or drained into the system, as they can cause blockages or damage.
