Septic systems are designed to efficiently manage wastewater in homes and businesses without access to a municipal sewer system. Most systems in the Central Valley rely on gravity to carry household waste from plumbing pipes into a septic tank, where solids settle, and liquids are gradually filtered through the soil.

Over time, solid waste accumulates, and without regular pumping, it can clog drain wells or leach fields, leading to backups and costly repairs. Routine maintenance, such as scheduled pumping and proper septic hygiene, helps extend the life of your system and prevent unexpected failures.
