Septic System Installation

T-Square Groundworks specializes in expert septic system installation, ensuring efficient and environmentally friendly waste management for residential and commercial properties. Our experienced team utilizes the latest techniques and high-quality materials to deliver long-lasting and dependable solutions.

Conventional Systems

A conventional septic system is a common wastewater treatment solution for areas without access to a municipal sewer system. It consists of a septic tank and a drain field.

Installation Process:

  1. Site Evaluation: A professional will assess the property to determine the appropriate location for the septic tank and drain field. Factors such as soil type, groundwater levels, and proximity to buildings are considered.
  2. Excavation: The area for the septic tank and drain field is excavated to the required depth.
  3. Septic Tank Installation: The prefabricated septic tank is placed in the excavated hole and connected to the home’s plumbing system.
  4. Drain Field Installation: A network of perforated pipes is laid out in the drain field area. These pipes allow wastewater to seep into the soil, where bacteria naturally break it down.
  5. Backfill: The excavated areas are filled back in with gravel and original soil or a suitable alternative.
  6. Testing: Once the system is installed, it is tested to ensure proper function and compliance with local regulations.

Low Pressure Pipe (LPP) Systems

A low-pressure pipe (LPP) septic system, also known as a pressure dosing system, is a type of septic system that uses a pump to force wastewater into a pressurized pipe network. This network distributes the wastewater more evenly across the drain field, improving the efficiency of the system.

Installation Process:

  1. Site Evaluation: As with conventional septic systems, a professional will evaluate the property to determine the appropriate location for the septic and pump tanks, and drain field. Typically, these systems are designed by a professional engineer and reviewed/approved by the regulatory body governing the area.
  2. Excavation: The areas for the septic and pump tanks, and drain field are excavated.
  3. Septic and Pump Tanks Installation: The septic and pump tanks are installed in the excavated area.
  4. Pipe Network Installation: A network of pressurized pipes is installed, connecting the pump tank to the drain field.
  5. Pump Installation: A pump is installed to force wastewater from the pump tank into the pressurized pipe network.
  6. Drain Field Installation: The drain field is installed, typically consisting of a series of perforated pipes laid out in a horizontal pattern.
  7. Testing: Once the system is installed, it is tested to ensure proper function.

Benefits of Low-Pressure Pipe Septic Systems:

  • Improved Efficiency: The pressurized pipe network distributes wastewater more evenly across the drain field, improving the efficiency of the system and reducing the risk of backups.
  • Smaller Drain Field: Low-pressure pipe systems often require smaller septic areas compared to conventional systems, which can be beneficial for properties with limited space.
  • Reduced Odor: The pressurized system can help to reduce odors associated with septic systems.

Modified Low Pressure Pipe (MLPP) Systems

A modified low-pressure pipe (MLPP) septic system is a variation of the traditional low-pressure pipe (LPP) system that incorporates additional soil to provide the proper depth needed for the system.

Installation Process:

The installation process for a modified low-pressure pipe septic system is similar to that of a traditional low-pressure pipe (LPP) system, with an additional eight (8) to ten (10) inches of soil added to the surface within the septic area.
