Soil-Based Sewage Treatment Systems
Do you know what your soil type is? Do you have dirt that is mostly sandy, coarse or possibly clay? The type of soil that you have on your property is a major determining factor for choosing a Sewage System Design. Soil-based Sewage Treatment Systems, also known as SSTS or ISTS are commonly used by Ham Lake, MN homes that are not connected to a municipal sanitary sewer system. As a MPCA Certified Septic Professional, Brad Krotzer of Custom Septic, Inc. (CSI) has training on how to evaluate soil samples and determine if a Mound System, Trench System, Pressurized Bed System or At-grade Drainfield will be the most effective septic system to install.

Soil Boring Samples
Finding suitable soil for adequate sewage treatment is the key to installing a proper Onsite Sewage Treatment System. Clay type soil can do a good job of removing hazardous bacteria, mold and other microbes but requires a larger soil treatment area. Coarse soil may not do a good enough job or removing bacteria and other contaminants from the sewer.
MN Certified Septic Professionals understand how soil conditions relate to the way harmful bacteria is removed from sewage waste. Custom Septic, Inc. (CSI) can do Soil Boring and percolation tests to assess the type and consistency of dirt samples. These tests can show which kind of septic system should be installed. The Size, Location and Design are all affected by Soil Conditions.
Soil Based Septic Drainfield
The most common form of Sewage Disposal System includes a septic tank and drainfield. Household wastewater flows from the septic tank to the drainfield where it is absorbed by the soil. It is very important that the soil be suitable for removing harmful microbes before reaching the groundwater. For soil to do the job properly it must stay unsaturated and not be overly coarse.
