Your Wastewater System
Introduction
You may have heard the old saying that no two people are exactly alike, well the same applies to septic systems, they all differ slightly in design. The systems may differ by the size of its structures, the number of distribution boxes, the length of piping, the slope of the piping, or by the number of arms in the leachfield (drainfield). System designs are dictated by both local health codes and percolation test data, which is obtained by testing the soil’s ability to soak up water. Civil Engineers perform these “percolation tests,” and then use all of the available information to design properly sized septic systems.
During the operation of most systems, backups and clogs can occur. These problems indicate that the system is improperly functioning, but luckily they usually can be fixed. On the other hand, improper maintenance results in an unseen, slow, and steady clogging of the leachfield.
When a system fails due to a severely clogged leachfield, lofty repair bills may be incurred.
