What Are Leach Lines, and When Should You Replace Them?
Leach lines are the primary way that wastewater is disposed of in your septic system. Also known as leach drains or leach fields, they are essentially pipes that are buried underground and connected to the septic tank.
Wastewater flows from your house into the tank and then, is treated by naturally occurring bacteria. The treated water then exits the tank and travels through a network of underground pipes known as leach lines. These pipes are typically made of PVC and are buried in gravel or soil. Without leach lines, you would constantly be pumping your septic tank, and your yard would quickly become a cesspool.
When one or more of your leach lines become clogged, water will likely pool in your lawn, soaking into the soil and possibly causing other parts of your yard to flood. The first sign of this type of problem is usually a swampy spot on your lawn that never dries out.
If you are experiencing such problems with your leach field, it is important to have it checked out by a professional as soon as possible. Transou's Plumbing & Septic in High-Point, NC will perform a thorough inspection and make sure everything is running smoothly again.
