Soil Absorption Systems

About The Project

There are a number of Innovative and Alternative Soil Absorption Systems that have been Approved by the Department of Environmental Protection.  Many can be used in new construction or repairs.  Depending on site specific conditions, it may be advantageous to use some of these alternatives to conventional pipe and stone Soil Absorption Systems (aka leaching areas).

These are some examples of Soil Absorption Systems that we have proposed:

Cultec Chambers

Oakson Drip

Presby Enviroseptic
