Depends on what kind of septic system you have, if its a pump out or gravity feed to a field. If you have a pump that cuts in on your wet side at a certain level and pumps out the tank you will never have any issues but still need to double up on your bacteria additive to break down solids.

If you have a gravity feed out to a field like I do, you need to be very aware of what goes down the drain in the form of liquid. Even when we have a house full during the holidays I have to check the level on the wet side to make sure it does not get to high and go over the weir that separates the solid's from the wet side. So water changes for me are a bit more challenging.
