The steps to be followed are not difficult to go through as long as one has the required equipment for digging.

After one has acquired a permit for constructing the septic, the only remaining part is the actual construction. You only need to create a leveled space which will be used in housing the tank and installing the drainage system. The particulars of this process do vary across jurisdictions. One should obtain complete information from the local authority before the project commences.

Before embarking on the installation process, the first step should be verification of ordinances that apply to such kind of construction. Almost all municipalities will demand various lengths of the drainage field which is coming from the septic tank. This will highly depend on the ability of the surrounding soil to absorb the waste. A sample of the surrounding soil is usually required by the authority before issuing of a permit.

The person who is supposed to collect to collect and forward the soil samples also differ across authorities. There are areas where the samples can only be collected and forwarded by an official from the authorities. Other areas require the owner of the promise to collect and forward the samples personally. The permit acquisition process should be considered before other things since it can highly derail the process of construction. It is the first thing to look after.

After you have cleared with the authorities, the next step to take is that of visiting the retailer. These tanks come as either plastic or concrete. The choice here will also determine the ease and cost of lowering the septic in place. Some of retailers usually offer cranes when it comes to lowering the concrete tanks. However, this should be discussed in detail before purchasing the product.

There are various methods which one can use in digging the holes back at the construction site. One can either use a ditch witch or a backhoe, and one can also dig by hand. Renting digging equipment is optional. However, it is the most recommended method when it comes to time and cost of hiring laborers.

The basic thing that should not be left out is leveling the base perfectly. This is hard to do sometimes especially when one is digging using hands. This is the reason as to why most of the contractors prefer renting the equipment for digging.

The last steps are quite easy and straightforward once the previous phases are done. Once the bottom floor is perfectly leveled, rocks or other materials used in building can be placed. They normally help in keeping the weight of the tank equally distributed. After lowering the tank in place, both lines of drainage are set and secured. Once the glue has dried and the holes which are remaining filled, the installation process is complete.
