My friend Denny Weaver dug the trench for the drain field, and I connected it to the septic tank. The drain field is 144 ft. long and 3 ft wide. Our county health inspector came up yesterday and approved the system, so we can now cover it up.
Things are really starting to come together. Ray Pattan, my electrician, Clayton Russell of Gem Pump & Supply, and Denny Weaver got together to install the upper booster pump and pump house and connect the water lines and electrical conduit to the house. These guys really make it look easy. I couldn't ask for a nicer, more capable bunch of guys to hold my hand through this construction adventure.
This is what the upper pressure pump looks like. It was necessary due to the loss of pressure caused by the 80 feet gain in elevation between the well and the house. With this additional pump, I'll be able to maintain pressures in excess of 65psi. at the house, as opposed to around 25psi without it. Ray will connect the electricity as soon as the power company energizes the permanent circuit box and moves the meter.
