What changes in Callahan
Callahan's rural tanks fail under heavy use rather than age, and the replacement is sized to the household and to whatever else drains to it, on flat ground where the wet-season table means the tank is set against flotation and the field is set high. Lots are large, so the well setback is easy to meet, but it is measured and recorded because the well is the only water the property has and a drain field too close to it is not a small mistake.
The county health department in Nassau permits and inspects it, and the visit is grouped with other Callahan work.
How the job runs
How a tank is replaced
The failed tank is pumped and inspected so the replacement is quoted from what is seen. The permit is filed with the county environmental health office, with the new tank sized to the bedroom count. The drain field is inspected honestly before the new tank is connected to it. The new tank, precast concrete or polyethylene depending on access and groundwater, is set level with risers to grade and inlet and outlet connected. The old tank is pumped, crushed and filled, or removed. The county inspects before backfill and the record is closed. Financing through Hearth is available.
Straight answers
Septic Tank Replacement questions from Callahan
How big should a rural Callahan system be?
As big as the site evaluation and the real load say, which is usually larger than the old one.
Why is the well setback so important here?
Because the well is the only water there is, and a field too close to it contaminates it.
