What are the Different Types of Septic Designs?
There are two main types of septic system designs.
The first involves a traditional leaching bed, which features pipes installed in trenches. The soil that covers the piping proves effective in filtering out waste from the septic system.
The second septic system design features a raised leach bed. This involves bringing in suitable soil to your property to produce a leach bed that rises above the water table to properly rid waste from the septic system.
Which design is right for you? It will depend on the Chief Building Official in your area. We will make sure that your new system is installed and serviced according to local code.
What are Signs You Need to Check Your Septic System?
Be on the lookout for these common trouble signs of a damaged septic system:
- Waste backing up into your property or toilets
- Slow draining sinks
- Strong sewage smell
- Unusually green or soft grass near your septic system
- Tainted water (usually contaminated with bacteria and nitrate)
If these problems are not handled accordingly, you will experience severe waste back-up around your property. Your water supply will also be unsafe to use or drink, as they will be filled with contaminants.
