Why Choose Mr. Rooter Plumbing for Septic Drain Field Service and Cleaning?

Septic Drain Fields Explained
After the wastewater from your home flows through drains or toilets, it goes into the septic tank. Chambers inside the tank separate the fats, solids, and liquids. All the fat floats to the top of the main tank, where it congeals. The solids sink to the bottom and are digested by bacteria. The remaining liquid flows into the drain field, which is a grid of perforated pipes. Tiny holes in the pipes allow liquid to seep into the dirt below, where it’s naturally filtered before harmlessly returning to the groundwater.
Septic drain fields are known by many names, including:
- Absorption beds
- Disposal fields
- Drain fields
- Leach fields
- Seepage fields
- Weeping tiles
Whatever you prefer to call it, you need it to work the right way. Let us help with your septic drain field service and cleaning.
