Walters Company installed the system. The system installation included a 2000-gallon, two-compartment concrete septic tank with an Orenco® ProPak and PF3005 pump in the second compartment. PVC risers were installed on the tank to bring access to grade. The floats were set to dose approximately 80 gallons each pump cycle, allowing for approximately 10 gallons for drain back into the tank after each pump cycle. The control panel is located within line of sight of the septic tank. Valley Precast out of Buena Vista performed start up on the pumping system. A 1.5-inch diameter Schedule 40 pump line was installed from the pump to an Orenco® automatic distributing valve (ADV), model 6404. The ADV was placed a high point in the system and was placed in an insulated riser with access from grade. Effluent is pressure dosed through 1.5-inch diameter pipes to four trenches, each with 12 ‘Quick 4’ Standard Plus Infiltrator® chambers, for a total of 48 chambers and 576 square feet of infiltrative area. There was at least 6-feet of undisturbed soil between each trench. Effluent is pressure dosed to 1.5-inch diameter laterals, which were hung with zip ties from the underside of the chambers. Laterals have 3/16- inch diameter orifices facing up, with the exception of the first and last holes facing down for drainage. Orifices were placed 3-feet on center. Each lateral ends in a 90 degree ell facing up with a ball valve for flushing. Valves were placed in a valve box, accessible from grade, for access. Inspection ports were placed at the beginning and end of each trench. Ports may be cut to grade and covered with a valve box for access. The OWTS was generally installed according to specifications.
