This video gave me more advice than the couple of other septic field videos I've viewed so far. And it's given me the RIGHT questions to ask the local 'Regional Building Department'.😍 The best answers come from the best questions! 😁😁 Thanks TAA!
Have a hard time believing the waste water ever makes it to the end of the tunnels. Id say the first half gets totally saturated over the years while the last half stays relatively unused. Be nice to put a camera down the inspection hole after a few years and see if thats the case.
Is there supposed to be a pipe inside the entire chamber? I saw one video of a septic guy that did that but my septic guy did not put a pipe inside the chamber, only pipe connecting the chamber. It is level.
Hard to beat the gravel lines! I've got some I installed 28 years ago still working great. I've installed alot of 10" graveless lines but really don't like it as good as gravel. I've installed some of the easy flow lines.
With 24 inch wide tunnel system and the top being 18 inches from the surface you can drive over the top of them (dry dirt) with 16,000 lbs per axel. They are tougher than they look.
why wouldn't he just put all the rows right next to each other? I've seen this done in other videos and it passed whatever inspection. These plastic chamber systems don't make sense to me. Aren't they just open on the bottom? Who's to say you don't have one spot that just soaks up water a lot better than other spots and all the influent soaks in there? PVC with rocks makes a lot more sense in my mind.

Depends on the dirt.
An example in the extreme, but think of a river. It’s not impossible for a water flow to outrun it percolating.
No distribution box from tank to chambers? How much pitch can you have between the chambers when the elevation changes? Nice video.
Excellent instruction and education
Thanks
Is using a pump system vs gravity fed a bad idea with the chambers?
The chambers are actually 35" wide hence the 36" ditch
What happens if the ditch is wider than 36"?

Your guy did it right!
Yeah, no pipe inside. That would defeat the purpose of the tunnel. The idea is to get rid of perforated pipe.
Is a gravel and pipe better than the chamber system
Depends on the soil but yes I think it is

Could this be repaired if a section is crushed?

lol “the wife”
Like the dirt closer to the tank is not any better than down there. Bullshit.
I hear a lot of yak yak and no work getting done.
20 minutes of saying level
Comcrete baffles are garbage
