OHEL - Infiltrator leaching field soakaway system 

Because the ribs on the chamber itself are facing down so dirt can’t go down then up and over the ribs on the chamber I’m sure some dirt will find it’s way In there at some point but not as much as you’d think

Perk and soil tests are required for all septic systems. They have engineers analyze the soil before install.

If your soil type is loam or sandy and has insufficient clay content it will ABSOLUTELY find its way into the chamber cavity and when it does your surface will collapse and cave in. Voice of experience talking and just Google "infiltrator septic system failures" and see what comes up. This system might be reliable in hard clay but if it is so hard that you have little to no permeability and the affluent can't soak into the base clay type soil you might have a problem under high volume load conditions. Make sure your perk test evaluates your soil's permeability to the full depth of the chamber heights and another 12' beyond that.

@@audrybella6405 Thank you for your insightful comments.

I lived in Lula GA and had this system. Never had any issues. They do a perk test before installing and design the system based on your perk rate.

I also live in N GA, near McCaysville. My soil type was tested and shown to be Evard, one of the best types for leach fields (red GA clay). For a two-bedroom residential home, I was approved for an infiltrator system. According to my permit on a percolation rate of 45, I need 132 linear feet of "Quick 4 High Capacity - 14" product with a 1,000 ga. tank.

Lmao with proper leveling, of each ditch, and the proper distribution, it's not flow it's filling volume , no flow

Im no rocket scientist but now I need to be one to put in a poop field. What kind of technology do I need to learn to go flip bergers?

@@3starsfell huh?

From first hand experience, max run per line is roughly 50’ - 60’ depending on the requirements of the system. A 100’ run is broken down to 2- 25’ lines thus reducing the amount of space which is required compared to conventional leach lines. Adding 1/8” of slope per foot assist with the fill capacity of the chambers (other wise known as surge capacity). There is no flow created by pressure. Its just over flow from the septic tank to the chambers. If you add 17 gallons of waste to the septic tank, you’ll discharge roughly 15 gallons of effluent. Gravity does all the work. Hope this helps.

@@erichemard7066 Are you saying that adding 1/8"-per-foot slope more than regular slope (1/8" or 1/4" per foot) is enough to distribute the effluent 25 feet? (A sincere question.)

Keep the Jesus shit to yourself weirdo

This is a goofy post. What does this have to do with this video?

Evaporate? As in a soggy lawn? Sure, there is some evaporation, but the majority of the water is dispersed into the ground, not into the air. In cold areas, the surface is frozen during winter, and very little evaporative action will take place. 'Common sense'

In New York state, snow on the ground in the winter, wet spring and fall, rainy summers with high humidity are all added to clay soil if you live in the wrong area.

The chambers are laid level. Water (effluent) does not pile up in piles,- it seeks and immediately levels into the entire are provided…if it doesn’t all integrate into the ground before it reaches that point.
