Septic systems

---

Conventional septic systems contain drainfields that are usually gravity feed, and constructed with perforated pipe and gravel, leaching chambers, or gravel-less pipe in a trench or bed configuration and backfilled with native soil.

Low Pressure Dosing (LPD) septic systems dispose of pumped effluent under low pressure, into the ground by the means of perforated distribution pipes in gravel in a trench or bed configuration and backfilled with loam.

Mound septic systems dispose of pumped effluent under low pressure to the drainfield(s) that are constructed above the native soil surface.

Aerobic spray septic systems can be installed in almost any soil, dispose treated effluent onto the surface of the ground, and require a maintenance contract for the rest of the life of the system.

Aerobic drip septic systems have an aerobic tank, followed by a micron filter, drip irrigation drainfield and require a maintenance contract for the rest of the life of the system.
