Onsite Wastewater Systems

Working under the direct supervision of a Registered Onsite Wastewater Practitioner (ROWP) we designed and constructed this Dosed Gravity Septic System. This system serves a one bedroom home which is located in a forested area where power outages are not uncommon.
In our planning phase we identified this site to be capable of gravity feed due to the favorable soil conditions and elevation differential t in the area that became the dispersal field.
We installed a "Flout" which is pre set to dose the dispersal field with individual 190 Liter (50 gallon) doses.  This ensures all areas of the dispersal field get used every dose rather than the traditional trickling gravity system where only a small part of the field is used.  This Flout does not require  electricity so is not affected by power outages.  A mechanical counter is installed to count all doses to the dispersal field.  This counter also requires no electricity for operation.
The laterals are connected as a circuit to ensure equal dispersal of effluent
Insulated Pressure Treated enclosures protect the Flout and Counter and also the D-box from the cold temperatures and from damage.
This is an ideal minimal maintenance septic system for any  remote, seasonal or grid tied residence.
