What changes in Interlachen
Two setbacks decide an Interlachen replacement: the distance from the lake under today's rule, and the 75 feet from the well on the same lot. On a small lake lot those two circles can leave one place for the field, and the site evaluation says whether it drains. The tank is polyethylene where the lot cannot take a crane, set against flotation in sand, and the county health department in Palatka permits and inspects it.
Where the shallow well has gone dry with the lakes, the replacement well is planned on the same site plan so both setbacks are settled once.
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 Interlachen
Is there room on a lake lot for a new system?
Often one place. The two setbacks are drawn first, and the evaluation says whether it drains.
Can the well move to make room?
Sometimes that is the answer, and the same crew does both under separate permits.
