Septic System Estimate
The only way to get a true estimate is to circulate an approved design to several licensed system installers.
Standards have changed and research has developed new and better approaches to treating sewage onsite to protect the health of the residents, the community, and the environment.
While some older systems may have met standards when they were installed, upgrades and replacements will take advantage of the tremendous advances scientists and engineers have developed to improve wastewater treatment. Be prepared for new or upgraded systems to be different from the system that may have been installed decades ago.
