SEPTIC SYSTEM
Some 30 percent of ail Texas
homes today have a septic tank
system, and homeowners with such
a system should know where it is
located, how it works, what t<i do if
it fails, and how to prevent it’-from
failing. A septic system consists of
two main parts: the tank, usually a
1,000 gallon unit made of concrete
and the soil drainfield, also called
nitrification lines or soil absorption
trenches. Symptoms of a failing,
septic system include damp, mushy
ground above the drainfield or
around the tank, standing water
with an oily film or dark color, odor
problems and household plumbing
fixtures that back up or don't drain
properly. A system fails because it
is overloaded with more water than
the soil can absorb. Improper de

sign, poor installation, lack of main-

clogged soils or pipes can all cause
problems, says a soils specialist
with the Texas Agricultural Exten-
sion Service, Texas A4M Univer-
sity System.
