This job came to us from Clayton Homes, one of our builder partners. The owners are building a 4 bed home with possibility of finishing another for 5. We went ahead and installed a 1500 gallon poly tank. Since the field was pure sand, it only called for 39 total chambers, which we installed in 3 50′ trenches.

We began by trenching a 60′ run downhill and installed the 1500 gallon tank perpendicular to the line. I like installing in fashion on slopes so we can keep the risers at the same length.

Here is a side view. You can see we had 36″ of risers!

We then trenched 33′ down the hill to a distribution box splitting the effluent into 3 lines with Flow Equalizers.

Here is a shot of 1 of the trenches that hold 13 Infiltrator Chambers. There are 3 trenches totalling 39 Chambers.

Passed inspection. We already covered the main line here…

Onto the next one. Another successful OWTS install from:

This job came to us from a referral from a prior client. The owners are building a massive 5 bed home. We added a 500 gallon pump tank because the grade of the lot was 2% uphill and the owner wanted the tank installed a good distance from the home.

We began be excavating for a 1500 gallon poly tank. Due to the depth of the mainline from the home, and the slope of the lot, we quickly knew a pump tank was needed. This challenge was previously discussed with the client; and yes, it ended up being required.

We then ran the pump line up the hill to the distribution box; with flowed into 4 80′ long 3′ wide trenches, that housed 20 Infiltrator Chambers, each.

Here is another angle of the Distribution box. After passing inspection, we were able to backfill.

Onto our next challenge. Another successful system installed by:

We began with the septic line leading out of the skirt of the modular home and down to the tank. 24″ of risers.

The outlet leads 19′ down to a 45 degree turn… All 4″ schedule 40 pipe.

The line then leads downhill to the Distribution box..

It’s extremely important that the Distribution Box is level, North->South and East -> West.

It’s also important the all pipe is level, and bedded. Bedding is a process of setting the foundation for the pipe, so that it does not move when backfilling.

All pipes must be level!

More bedding…

and more bedding

Finally, risers are screwed on, and the clean out glue to future grade (very back of picture)

After we pumped and crushed the existing tank, we dug the hole for the new Poly Tank. The septic line came out of the home under the footer, so it was deep. There are 36″ of risers on top! Here is a pic installed. Very sandy soil!

Next, we turned our focus to the field. There were so many trees, and with the 5 bedroom home, we had to have 2 fields. These where 12′ wide and 68 feet and 40 feet long.
