Excellent video. Well explained. Really appreciate your effort and sharing your knowledge.
our septic system is quite different. For one, we had very little soil. We began years before we built, hauling in fill material as we are on a mountain of rock. The djainfield was dug around 20'x40' and a bed of clean 3/4" rock laid and the a grid of perforated pipe laid and covered with more clean rock and then a very heavy fabric. over that was a layer of soil. In total, there are probably 100 loads of material in our djainfield. Our tank is a 1500 gallon with no compartments. the drop from the house to the tank is probably 8' and the drop from the tank to the djainfield is another 15'
Thank you for the video and I have to say that it was a very detailed and unselfishly done, professional bit of information.

This is easily best case scenario when installing a new system. It’s dry and sunny and nice. The dirt has absolutely no rocks in it. Imagine putting these in the dark, cold, and pouring rain. Constantly fighting the mud to keep the system level to satisfy the inspectors, and unearthing watermelon size rocks and tossing them out of the trench to prevent a break when the dirt settles after backfilling.
Great video thanks. And what a good brother you are.
Great job bedding tank and pipe. that is the most often failure on installations and regulatory inspections. As a regulator I see many failures due to improper bedding. One local homeowner spent a three day weekend with 10 degree or below temps hand digging sewage laden mud from beneath his deck and home to resolve a blockage due to improperly bedded pipe on a 6 year old system. Get it right at installation and you don't have to repeat that homeowners experience!

If the plan is to live in the mobile home until they save enough and then build the dream home, will the mobile home be sold/removed from the property once the dream home is built? Looks like the dream home will end up being on the opposite side of the leech field as the mobile home. Does that mean you will need to dig for a second septic for the dream home? Was there any chance at placing the leech field such that it could be repurposed for the dream home after the mobile home was no longer needed?

I design these for a living in North Carolina, so I'm just curious about a few things: 1. Were you required to go through a soil scientist, or did you have the option of a REHS from the county or state level? 2. Is the 1250-gallon tank a requirement in your state? Anything less than 5 bedrooms only requires a 1000 gallon tank here in NC. 3. Why is the D-box set so far away from the drain lines? Would you have been unable to get 1/8 inch of fall per foot of supply line to the D-box if you'd set it closer to the lines? There's nothing wrong with your design, I've just never seen a D-box set so far away. 4. Did you use low-profile chambers so that your curtain drain wouldn't have to be as deep? Just wondering because if you were allowed up to a 36 inch trench depth, you could've used standard Infiltrator chambers and received a 25% reduction on linear footage. The 4 lines would've been 75 feet instead of 100, so the curtain drain would've been deeper but also a bit shorter. I'm just curious of how the math worked out, if it was still somehow cheaper to use low-profiles. It's fascinating to see how this is done in other states! 👍🏻
@NoNeedForaName734

I am really curious as to their soil conditions. The DRs do the soil evals here in AR. We wouldn't do a curtain drain unless we had a pretty high brief in the seasonal water table. 400ft with a curtain drain would be some pretty sad soil. We would do standard chambers by default unless we had a high rock layer to minimize trench depth. We don't even install standard chambers 36in deep, much less low profile. Also, we have to follow contour, so our lines are rarely straight.
How long will this system last ? Also how much would it cost to have it done ?
@thefarmer5677

Septic system longevity is in large part driven by how the homeowner uses and maintains the system. You need to be careful about what goes down all of the drains in the house. No oils, no disposal units in sinks, no chemicals, etc.. Have the tank pumped out every 3 or so years (for 4 adults in the home), don't allow heavy vehicles on the disposal field (nothing heavier than, say, a riding mower) and don't plant anything other than grass over the field. If you do all of these things, a septic system can last 25+ years or longer. If you mistreat the system (even by dumping too much water in it, like from a constantly running toilet due to a work flush valve), you can have problems almost from the start.
Great Job! Very Professional Work! Very Good Explanation! Whoever invented the septic and lateral line sewer system was a genius, makes it possible for people to live at their dream place! I recently bought my first house in the country that has a similar septic system, just a bit smaller for a one bedroom house. My previous house I owned was in the city. I did own a place in the country (woods) when I was younger and it had a small lagoon sewer pond that was very functional and had no odors. I'm so grateful to get out of the city again and back to the country (woods) after 32 years. Now at least I'm not so far from the city so it's not so far to have easier access to the things I need.
I'm in the beginning phases of researching modular/manufactured home installation and somehow I ended up here...Very informative.

Just another note when you're gluing pipe and you shove your pipe into the glue joint you need to twist your pipe at least a quarter turn this allows for the bubbles to be expelled.

Great job, FYI, always use PVC with the bell end, no connectors. Using connectors are failure points either by the ground settling, tree roots , vehicle traffic etc. PVC with the bell end totally eliminates a possible failure point.
