The Drain or Leach Field consists of a network of perforated pipes (or âlaterals) laid in gravel under the ground that allow the water to pass into the ground from the septic tank. In most systems this pipe consist of PVC or the newer chamber style field lines that have a higher surface area.
A typical septic drain field (see Figure 1), also known as a leach field, is a series of perforated pipes that are set in trenches and buried with aggregates (Â½- to 2Â½-inch gravel or Â½- to 4-inch rubber chips) and soil.These drain lines are at a minimum depth of 6 inches and are typically 18 to 36 inches wide.The individual drain lines will usually be 8Â½ to 10 feet apart (see Figure 2). It is important to note here that each drain field system will vary from the next. typical septic drain field (see Figure 1), also known as a leach field, is a series of perforated pipes that are set in trenches and buried with aggregates (Â½- to 2Â½-inch gravel or Â½- to 4-inch rubber chips) and soil.
