Septic Waste Tanks Domestic Somerset
Our professional Septic Tank removal services throughout the South West.A septic tank consists of one storage tank designed to allow the solid and liquids waste to separate slowly. These tanks must be water tight to allow no contamination into the ground. Bacteriological action will take place and so that liquid can safely exit the tank to a soakaway system, where liquids can be dispersed into the ground. These tanks are usually placed in properties that cannot connect to mains drainage. All raw sewage and waste water will feed into the tank from the property.
