Understanding Septic System Design

What is Septic Design? The process of creating detailed plans for a new or replacement septic system, specifying component types, sizes, and locations based on site conditions, wastewater flow, and regulations.
Why is Custom Design Important? Every property is different. A custom design ensures the system fits the site, handles the expected load, meets all codes, maximizes longevity, and minimizes environmental impact. Generic plans often fail.
Key Design Factors: Soil percolation rates, property size and slope, setbacks from wells and water bodies, number of bedrooms (residential) or type of business (commercial), and local health codes all influence the final design.
Types of Septic Systems: Learn about conventional systems, chamber systems, drip distribution, mound systems, and other alternative designs that may be required based on site limitations.
