Hahahahahahahahahahahahaahaaaaa MAGIC BOX HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@nicholasborelli275]

I add bacteria producing enzymes once per month in order to facilitate the breakdown of solids. Things we put down the drain (e.g., detergents, cleansers, etc.) can inhibit breakdown. Pumped out every other year, my 44 year old septic tank and leach field work perfectly.

[@JohnDoe-hp5nn]

But how do u get rid of all the waste n scum in the septic system?

Do towns without public sewer or public water infrastructure, who instead make residents deal with their own shit (literally) out of pocket, have significantly lower property taxes?

[@djmurria]

Yes usually super rural areas so lower taxes

It is 4:32 AM here in the Philippines. I am researching drainage fields for septic. 😅😂 I am curious how I can install this type of system for a future home. My house in Florida has one. I needed to see a diagram of it.

Why do I feel like I'm watching curious George?

[@roderickwilliams6841]

A very detailed explanation for newbies on how our onsite wastewater systems work.

[@housenotebook]

I agree. The only thing I missed was the distribution box. Your septic tank's job is to break down waste. But after that, we've got some liquid leftovers. Where do they go? Enter the D-box! The D-box is like a traffic cop. It sends the liquid waste (effluent), evenly into your drain field. It makes sure everything flows nice and smooth. But if the D-box gets lazy, we've got trouble. The waste might not spread evenly. Some parts of your drain field could get swamped. Believe me, that's not a fun time!

[@cottagekeeper1044]

Music is too loud. great information

[@CaptnBeeBop]

Plenty of sinks and showers/bathtubs don’t connect to the septic and have a separate gray water system. Which is very beneficial because it extends the life of your drain field by quite a bit

It would be smart to construct an integrated wastewater treatment plant for 50 houses instead of doing all this huge separate individual nonsense. Of course, the wastewater treatment plant can be designed with the future development plan in mind. Say, after 10 or 20 years, a sewage treatment plant can be modified to a sewage treatment plant for 200 or 1000 houses, and so on. Waste of time and money and negative impact to the nature.

I went to the town meeting , and voiced my displeasure I said I don’t want my sewage have to be diverted to the sewer system. If my septic system works fine anyway.

[@miketh33]

what are the dangers of a leeching field? do leeching fields attract ebola zombies?

[@chronicawareness9986]

no

[@markgarcia2235]

No haha. The water that is drained through your drainage system is cleaned through a matter for feet it drains though. It is actually in theory safe to drink after 10 feet. Look up artesian wells.

[@JonnyTightLipzs]

Oh shit

[@LuisCruz-yr7my]

[@outabeat]

Ok.. So for a very small vacation place that is a cottage with a small kitchen, 1 bath and that is used maybe a few days a month.... How does that work? The septic system has been in place since 1950. No idea if it has ever been serviced or how it works and there is no access to it as far as I know. Is this a disaster waiting to happen? We have not installed a garbage disposal because we though it would be bad.

[@arfaabbas]

[@ptick16]

One bit of information that I'm looking for, that I cannot seem to be able to find anything on, is combining multiple types of septic systems together. Is it possible to daisy chain different types of septic systems together for the most robust cleaning, and least amount of maintenance? For example, I would like to use Soakaway worms in the first stage, because I am of the understanding that the worms will process nearly all solids. Meaning little to no need for the pumping out of sludge from the system. For the second stage, I would like to use an aerobic system. The bacteria should be able to handle any waste products that make it past the worms. From there, I would like to use a gravity system to a drain field. I am hoping that such a system would put only the cleanest and safest end product onto my land.

[@JohnDoe-hp5nn]

What do you with the left over scum and waste at the btm of the septic ? I wouldnt want the septic to be overloaded with shit n scum. How would u clean it out?

[@ellenrobisonfrost9717]

The sellers had septic and field installed before closing but neglected to have clean out installed. My yard is fenced in with privacy fencing. I spent over $2000 on getting soil filled and grass to grow properly. Question: How will they proceed in cleaning the septic out?

How does it degrade cleaning products and chemicals that are non human?

[@thundaga4005]

It doesn't. Those things tend to stay in the tank and will be sucked out when the tank is emptied, typically every 5 years. See this video explaining that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4mbo62HlpiSma8

[@TheRabidPosum]

These don't exist on Long Island we have cesspools.

[@DrawingTechnical]

I am now going to search for what cesspools are, can't wait to find out!

[@TheRabidPosum]

@@DrawingTechnical it's pretty simple. It's just a big pit underground with cement rings with holes for the water to leach out and a cover. Most have a smaller overflow cesspool connected if the main one fills up. A dry well is the same idea but smaller. But instead of serving a whole house or building it just serves one appliance such as a washing machine or slop sink.

That's a good way to keep the nature clean but this only applies to the developed countries where people could afford the cost and maintenance like the US and where there's "unlimited" land area.

[@codycast]

I thought just the opposite. I thought they were for poor areas as it would seem advanced / developed spots would have city sewer vs individual septic.

My uncle has this bright idea that the toilet paper is going to clog the septic tank up and then he puts his shitty paper in the trash and doesn't throw it out smh

[@roberttill3787]

It does add to the sediment in the bottom of the tank so yes, it does reduce the pump out time, as toilet paper does not as such decay. The best way to get rid of toilet paper is to have a clinical waste bin next to the toilet that toilet paper can go in.

[@dannystricker854]

@@roberttill3787 That's what we do and it really extends intervals between pumping

[@roberttill3787]

@@dannystricker854 Human waste is pretty much eaten by the bacterial action. Toilet paper is refined cellulose which does not get converted by the bacteria, so falls to the bottom as sediment. If you dont add it the tank will last years between pump outs, as you have found.

If those leach lines are in a backyard, is it safe to have dogs running around there ?

[@NadyaPena-01]

totally. The lines are buried underground with drainage so water should not be surfacing up to the top soil. I'd be more worried about the dog waste on the soil because it can contain bacteria harmful to humans (such as salmonella).

The leach field pipes are at an angle, so it would just go downhill. But, there’s a bunch of rocks surrounding the pipes anyways, so it probably wouldn’t go in. If it does, it’s Trudeau’s fault and he should be fired
