The main benefit of using a septic system is that it requires less maintenance and upkeep than a sewage system. It also produces fewer pollutants, making it better for the environment. Additionally, a septic tank can be designed in such a way that it can treat waste more efficiently and break down solids more quickly, reducing the risk of clogging and overflowing. Finally, a septic system generally costs less to install and maintain than a sewage system.
