If you own a property that cannot be connected to local sewer systems for any reason, you will need a septic system installed on your property instead. One essential part of this system is the septic tank. Here are a few steps you will want to take to prepare for your septic tank installation.
- Understand your property: One of the first steps in preparing for your septic tank installation involves gaining a complete understanding of your land. This can be accomplished by knowing whether there might be any bedrock or otherwise beneath the surface or whether there might need to be any land clearing or grading involved before your tank is installed. You will also want to obtain a county drawing from the local health department.
- Know the tank you will need: You will also want to do the necessary research to determine what size septic tank you will need for your septic tank installation. This can be determined based on your household, the size of your home, and the anticipated wastewater volume.
- Choose the right septic company: Another important step in preparing for your septic tank installation will be choosing a septic company. You can choose us at Dewey’s Septic and Grading.
