A
building's waste-disposal system has two parts: the drainage
system and the venting
system. The drainage system, also called traps and drains, comprises pipes
leading from various plumbing fixtures to the building drain (indoors) and
then the building sewer (outdoors). The building sewer is then connected
to a municipal sanitary sewage disposal system. Where connection to a
municipal sewage system is not possible, a local, private, code-approved
septic system is required. Cesspools and outhouses do not meet health
codes.
Drain & Sewer Cleaning companies usually come out and clean sewers
lines ad drain line when they are too clogged for you to handle or it the
sewer line has a tree root growing in it blocking passage of water and
sewerage. The often use a plumbers snake.
A plumber's snake, sometimes known as a "toilet jack," is a flexible
auger used to remove clogs in plumbing that cannot be loosened with a
plunger.
Most devices consist of a coiled metal wire with space between the coils
at the end. The other end is attached to a device with a crank that
rotates the wire as it moves down into the pipe. Drains are cleared by one
of several mechanisms:
The auger end of the wire digs itself into the clog much like a corkscrew,
allowing retrieval of the object causing the clog when the snake is pulled
out. (Commonly hair, combs, small toys, cloth.)

The end of the snake breaks up the object, allowing it to pass through
the drain. (Commonly tree roots, foam insulation, plastic objects.)
The snake flails around the inside surface of the pipe, scraping off
accumulated matter (ranging from mineral deposits to bacon fat) which
was reducing the effective interior diameter of the drain pipe.
The auger should be turned clockwise only, unless it has become jammed
in the drain. Not only is this essential for retrieval of foreign
objects, but for the longevity of the cable.A septic tank,
the key component of a septic system, is a small scale sewage
treatment system common in areas with no connection to main sewerage
pipes provided by private corporations or local governments. (Other
components, typically mandated and/or restricted by local governments,
optionally include pumps, alarms, sand filters, and clarified liquid
effluent disposal means such as drain fields, ponds, or peat moss
beds.)
