Where are septic tanks often utilised?

Septic tank installation in Whitby (WA) is common in locations where a small-scale sewage treatment system is needed or in areas not connected to the primary sewage pipes. The city government and private firms often manage the public sewage system.

The installation and maintenance cost of the public system is also high. This is why Dobson Excavations recommend septic tank installation in Whitby for residential or commercial properties that are far from drain lines.

Septic tanks are essential in the recycling of wastewater. The septic tank system uses a natural filtering system to eliminate waste. As soon as the septic tank filters wastewater, it ends up in the leach drain. The soil then separates the bacteria from the water. At this phase, the water is safe for re-use. This water can then replenish the water table, which benefits wildlife.

When we are installing septic tank systems, we take steps to ensure we do it far from structures, boundaries, water supplies like dams, and far from groundwater level. At Dobson Excavations, we take measures to ensure your environment stays safe, during and after the installation of the septic tank.
