Hello,
I live in an area where we have water supply problems and have been suffering through complete outdoor water use restrictions for a number of weeks each year.
As I explore ways to overcome this, I have been thinking that I could use my septic effluent to subsurface microdrip my lawn. (Another option I'm exploring is drilling an irrigation well but that's going to be costly $20k CDN)
My current septic system is setup with a 900 gal tank, which leads to a 2nd 900 gal tank, which leads to a 650 gal pump tank and a pressurized field with 6 runs 40' long.
My question is around what kind of filter I would need to install/maintain in order to use the effluent in a subsurface microdrip system and not get clogging.
Any thoughts, ideas, feedback would be greatly appreciated!
