Drainfield Installation

Drainfield Installation in Spartanburg

The drainfield is where treated effluent returns to the soil, and it is the most important part of any septic system to get right. Nationalvideogamearchive builds gravel trench and plastic chamber fields sized straight from your perc rate, so wastewater disperses into the ground near Fairview Avenue without surfacing in the yard or backing up into the house.

Why the Soil Sets the Size

A drainfield cannot be guessed. The perc test measures how many minutes it takes water to drop an inch, and that rate sets how many square feet of trench the county will require. Fast draining sandy loam near Roebuck keeps the field small. Slow, heavy clay needs a larger field, a gravelless chamber system, or an engineered mound to hold the four foot vertical separation to the water table that code demands.

Our Process

We evaluate the soil, confirm the field size with the health department, and lay out the trenches to the permitted design. Washed gravel or plastic leaching chambers, perforated PVC laterals, a level distribution box, and non woven geotextile fabric all go in to spec. We keep the field the right distance from wells and property lines, then backfill and grade so water runs off the surface rather than pooling over the laterals.
