What are septic tanks ?.

Septic tanks are a way of collecting waste material from a property that can not connect to the public sewer system because the public sewer system is too far away for instance.

There are many things to consider when deciding on a septic tank set up like how many people will it serve, environmental issues, distance to property, water sources like rivers etc.
