I had to restore the sand filter system here at Pine Meadows Hobby Farm when I purchased the land. I had no clue what to do until I reviewed your videos. Thanks for your contribution.

Excellent video. But just a suggestion, in my country we use manholes, grease traps and trap gully Basins in our sewer system. this help us to clean our sewage pipes it also helps to identify problems in our septic.

Interesting that the coumty prohibits garbage disposals on septic systems. Good idea. This was a very good informative video and should be viewed by anyone purchasing a house on septic or considering building a new house that would have a septic system. The county requires room for TWO complete replacement systems - grin - seems the contractors still run city Hall.
