What changes in Palatka
A Palatka tank may be block, steel or early concrete, and its distribution box has usually rusted out. The replacement is a modern tank sized to the house, set with risers, connected to a field sized by a site evaluation and sited to today's setback from the river, and inspected by the county health department in Palatka. Where the old shallow well on the lot is too close to the new field, that is said, because the rule holds the new system to 75 feet.
Polyethylene suits the small river-town lots where a crane cannot get in.
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.
