We had a situation in our development where they said nobody here had
room to repair their septic systems if they failed and the only alternative now was to run public sewers at $43,100 per house. Needless to say, that was not a very popular plan with the folks who live here and an alternative was desperately needed. The aerobic on-site wastewater systems I found out about are NSF certified and already approved for use by PA DEP. The local regulators acted as if there were absolutely no other options available to us other than public sewer until the residents brought this information to their attention (you would think the local sewage enforcement officer would at least be aware of this option). The story is summarized on my website (there is also links to some cool pictures of our inground pool being demolished) http://home.comcast.net/%7Ephil.detweiler/aerobic.html |

Hi Bill.
I did indeed search out old threads that ~specifically~ dealt with the subject of alternatives for septic systems to post my message because I found the information to be quite helpful in our situation; I'm sorry you did not. Many people read the old threads (that's why they are there). and the hundreds of hits on my site, and dozens of emails that I received suggest that there are many others in search of this type of information as well. I never indicated that I owned one of these systems nor am I "touting" them, I am just making others aware of their availability (it is the awareness of their availability in our case that significantly altered the situation) and my experience as it relates to the subject. I suspect you have some different views on these systems, so perhaps you could contribute what you know about the topic for the good of all those reading the thread. Phil |
