70 years old? I’m surprised it didn’t have a cess pool instead. I’m a plumber and when I worked in a small town we did quite a few septic tanks. Now that I’m in a city they have contractors that only do septic systems. I haven’t done one in almost 20 years. We had issues with them. Though it’s a different situation where I was. It was west Texas so the dirt was very sandy and loose. Critters would get inside the panels and less things up. We started putting netting around them to keep them out. I left before I learned whether that actually worked or not. An interesting septic tank story. We got in with a welder who started building metal framed hunting cabins by a big lake in west Texas. He had a septic guy do the tanks. One day we were working on the rough when they were digging the hole. They hit bedrock. They had a way to break it a little faster than a breaker attachment. They had dug about 5’ when they hit rock. They then drilled a bunch of holes in the rock, stuffed it with TNT and then filled the whole hole back in. We had to stop working to get a safe distance while they blasted but when they did every bit of dirt in the hole collectively went up about 6’ in the air and back down. Then they just dig it out. They dig probably a 10’ x 10’ hole through about 2’ of solid rock in a few hours.

I moved to Midland from Colorado about 2 years ago. People are debating what the boundaries of West Texas are. People disagree whether Lubbock and San Angelo are in and some even said El Paso is not in, because it has a different culture, and it's not what they're talking about when they say west Texas.

@@countysecession I live in Austin and I’m from a small town between Abilene and San Angelo. I always considered west Texas to start when the terrain changed from hilly to flat which is around Brady or mason depending on your route. I’ve had people tell me Sam Angelo isn’t west Texas but I’m almost 40 and they’ve been called west Texas since I can remember. I have heard the El Paso thing. It’s like the put everything west of the Pecos in its own category. However El peso is as west Texas as you can get. I count Lubbock but separate Amarillo as being the panhandle. I always defined west Texas as a combo of location, climate, and terrain. It has to be west of Brady because that’s the heart (center) of Texas, it has to be flat, dry, and windy.

My city (in NZ) has old sewer lines at capacity, with sewerage overflowing down streets becoming increasingly common. They won't even allow new houses to connect to the city sewers (so you can't build a house). We'd love septic systems but there always isn't the space or soil conditions - city sewer lines cost A LOT to maintain and process the waste.

This brings back memories. We built 30 years ago in Texas on a lot that had terrible percolation. The city made us put in a drainage field with 2500 feet of lateral line (5 bedrooms with 7 kids). I am glad they did. The system was strained only a couple times during the years (during excessive spring rains). About 15 years after we built, the city put in a sewer system but we passed on hooking up. We paid a fortune (for us at the time) for that septic system and I was determined to get my money's worth.

You can also see the house from the interstate right as you hit the Sutherlin city limit sign headed to Roseburg. Place is amazing.

I used to deliver and set septic tanks in rural Colorado. Most of the lots sloped down from the road. By the time I arrived the customer had everything excavated, a pit for the tank, leach field, and trenches for the lines so all I needed to do was set the tank. Well sometimes they would get a rainstorm before they got the tank backfilled and the rainwater would run off the roof into the trench and into the tank pit, filling it up and floating the tank. Yes, hard to believe, but concrete will float.

Was thinking this and also thought it was odd that this was only a two chamber tank and the spray pump was in the second part. I also wasn't a big fan of that clunky filter assembly I can just imagine laying on my belly pulling that big piece of junk out to check something. Now imagine doing that 5-10x a day. No thanks. Here in MS the main tank is two compartments then it goes to the final chamber which we call the "spray tank" its either in the same tank just a third compartment or another smaller tank where it either gets sprayed out in sprinklers or distributed to drip lines like this one. With an overland it just goes out of the end of the treatment system in 4" sched 40 to wherever is specified by the health department.

Back in the late 70s the church my family attended tried to get a permit to build a new church. The town health department figured the size of the septic system on the maximum building occupancy of 140 persons all using the toilets every day. Plans were put on hold. A few years later we had a new pastor, who having worked with the state of Maine, knew a bit about dealing with bureaucracies. He did a study of water usage by churches of a similar size to what we proposed to build and got a much smaller system approved.

The septic system was inadequate to say the least. Then later on I built a house in the Shenandoah Valley and installed a septic system, it was a gravity type. It works fine even though the installer put the tank in backwards, I discovered this 20 years later while pumping it out, during normal maintenance.

Another great video. 8 yrs ago I did this by myself. It was a great learning experience as that was the first time I ran an escavator. Eight years later and many winters at -30 deg c with no freezing I'm happy as a pig in brown water.

I bought a house built in the 50's 5 years ago. It was a dream of mine to own my house out right asap because I had never owned anything. I've already paid it off. It's a fixer/upper, I've done 90 % of the work myself. When I bought it they told me it had a septic tank which I don't remember even caring about...today I love the fact that it does. I pay 10 bucks a month on my water bill. In my book, that's a win. One day I'll have little ones and I hope they love this project as much as I have and that they keep it in the fam when I'm gone. Next up, I'm looking into solar panels. I'm trying to be off the grid and as independent as possible.

Nice job, I see why you use them. Very neat work, the time of year really was perfect. They didn’t have to contend with any mud, didn’t leave huge tracks everywhere. It looks like the only thing you had to do when they left was spread some grass seed around and wait for some rain. Just more of keeping up the good work!

Great video. Thanks for sharing. One thing I'd like to add is concerning Perk Test. Most places require a Perk Test to see how fast the effluent in the leach field drains through the soil. Where I live the soil is too sandy and rocky. My perk test drained too fast, so we had to add material to slow down the absorption so the effluent can filter properly though the soil. I hope that's clear as mud. 😁

Those guys from Reynolds should start up a youtube channel. Their guys seem like they're comfortable around the camera, and more importantly, they're good at what they're doing. Brain really knows his stuff and it shows. I bet they work on all sorts of cool projects that would be entertaining to watch.
