What are the parts of any septic system?

Any properly designed septic system consists of the following components:

  1. Source (the house or building attached to the system)

  2. Collection & Storage (the pipes that take wastewater to the tanks)

  3. Pretreatment (septic tanks)

    • (Optional) Advanced Pretreatment (aerobic treatment units, etc.)

  4. Final Treatment & Dispersal (in-grade trenches, mound, lagoon, etc.)

Is a "mound" required if I install or replace my septic system?

I don't want a mound, what can I do about it?

Can I reduce the size or height of my mound system?

I'm thinking about building, what will my septic system cost?

Can I reuse my existing septic tank when replacing my system?

What is a perc test?
