What are the benefits of having a septic tank?

The primary benefit of having a septic tank is that it reduces the amount of waste that ends up in our waterways and oceans, which helps protect our environment. Additionally, it allows for the natural breakdown of waste into harmless byproducts, such as methane and carbon dioxide, which can be safely released back into the atmosphere. Finally, a properly maintained septic system can help prevent groundwater contamination from leaching into the soil.
