Our professional design service ensures a high-performance wastewater solution tailored to your property’s specific soil conditions and Florida’s regulatory requirements. We provide a comprehensive Site Evaluation and System Design package, which includes:
Core Design Components
- System Sizing & Capacity: Precise calculation of tank volume and drain field square footage based on bedroom count, building square footage, and estimated daily flow.
- Advanced Site Evaluation: Analyze soil morphology and seasonal high-water table (SHWT) levels to determine required soil application rates and the optimal system type (Standard, Infiltrator, or Performance-Based).
- Strategic Component Placement: Detailed layout of the septic tank (sized per Florida code), including inlet/outlet piping and multi-compartment baffles for maximum solids settling. Tank material specifications (such as concrete, fiberglass, or polyethylene) are determined based on specific design requirements, site accessibility, and client preference.
- Drain Field Engineering: Custom design of the absorption area, considering slope, soil loading rates, and required setbacks to protect the property’s integrity.
Well & Septic Integration (New Septic & Proposed Well)
When a property requires both a septic system and a private well, separation is the most critical factor for regulatory approval. Our design includes:
- Mandatory Setback Compliance: We guarantee the minimum required separation (typically 75 feet per Florida standards) between the proposed septic system components and the proposed or existing potable water well.
- Well Location Optimization: Strategic placement of the proposed well to prevent cross-contamination while maintaining accessibility for future maintenance and drilling equipment.
- Protection of Groundwater: Engineering the system to prevent effluent from impacting the aquifer, ensuring your drinking water remains safe.
Compliance & Permit Agency Services
- Regulatory Alignment: All designs strictly adhere to Florida Administrative Code (64E-6) and local county ordinances.
- Authorized Permit Agent: We can act as your Authorized Agent before the Florida Department of Health (DOH). This includes preparing all applications, submitting engineered plans, and communicating directly with health officials to streamline the approval process.
- Permit-Ready Documentation: We provide the complete septic plan, including elevations, setbacks, and construction specifications required for immediate submission and permitting.
