What is a septic tank, and how does it work?
A septic tank is an underground wastewater treatment system. It separates solid waste from liquids, allowing the liquid to flow into a drainage field and solids to break down naturally. It’s a reliable solution for managing wastewater in areas without access to municipal sewer systems.
Can septic tanks handle heavy rain or floods?
Properly installed septic systems can handle typical rainfall but may struggle with extreme flooding. SLR Projects designs systems with Durban’s climate in mind, including features to mitigate weather-related risks, ensuring reliable performance during heavy rains.
