What changes in Fleming Island
A Fleming Island replacement on a waterfront lot is held to the current distance from surface water, and the old tank was often laid closer than that. The new tank and field are sited to today's rule, which on a lot with water on three sides can leave one corner that qualifies, and the site evaluation says whether it drains. The county health department permits and inspects it.
The irrigation well feeding the sprinklers is measured for its own setback from the new field.
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.
