Types of Septic Systems

Septic systems come in various forms, each suited to different environmental conditions and household needs. The most common types include conventional systems, aerobic treatment units (ATUs), and mound systems. Conventional systems utilize a septic tank and a drain field to treat and disperse wastewater, while ATUs use oxygen to break down organic matter more efficiently, making them suitable for smaller properties or those with poor soil conditions. Mound systems, on the other hand, are designed for areas with high water tables or shallow soil depths, using a constructed sand mound to treat and disperse effluent.
