Common questions
- Can a failing drain field recover?
- Sometimes. Pumping the tank, spreading out water use and keeping vehicles off the field can help it recover.
- What causes drain field failure?
- Solids from an overdue tank, too much water at once, roots in the lines and compacted soil are the most common causes.
- Does drain field replacement need a permit?
- Usually, yes. Your county or state sets the rules.
