FAQ
What are signs that a septic system is starting to fail?
Early warning signs include slow-draining sinks and toilets, gurgling sounds in the plumbing, or foul odours near the tank or drainfield. You might also notice unusually lush grass patches above the system, which often indicate leaking effluent. Left untreated, these symptoms can lead to full system failure or environmental contamination. Addressing issues early usually means simpler and less expensive repairs.
How can heavy rain affect the performance of a septic system?
After prolonged rainfall, saturated soil can make it harder for a drainfield to absorb and filter wastewater. This can cause effluent to back up into the tank or even into the property. In some cases, pooling water appears above the ground where the drainfield is located. Having a system designed and maintained to handle local conditions helps minimise these risks.
Are there property restrictions that affect where a septic system can be installed?
Yes, installation must meet specific guidelines regarding distance from property boundaries, buildings, and water sources. Soil type, slope, and groundwater levels all influence where a septic system can safely operate. Local councils often have regulations to ensure environmental and public health standards are met. Site assessments are typically required before a new system can be approved.
