In order to confirm with local code during, septic systems must be capable of handling more than the amount of waste projected to be created by the occupants of a home.

For instance, a 2 bedroom home might require a 750 gallon septic tank with a specific drain field to match the projected use of the home. A 3 bedroom home might have a 1000 gallon tank since the projected use is expected to be higher, requiring a larger system to handle the waste.

In general, smaller homes with fewer bedrooms than larger homes have smaller septic tanks. Overtaxing a smaller tank by having too many occupants than the home was designed for can lead to system failure or very frequent pump outs.
