<human>: What are the advantages of using a septic system versus a sewer system?
<bot>: 
1. The primary advantage of using a septic system is that it is more cost effective than a sewer system, as you only need to pay for the installation and maintenance of a septic tank instead of a sewer line.
2. Additionally, a septic tank can be installed almost anywhere, whereas a sewer system requires a connection to your home’s plumbing infrastructure.
3. Finally, because a septic tank is designed to break down waste naturally, they are generally considered safer than sewer systems.
