Soak away drainage in the form of Mound systems
When buying anything even a small ball of cotton wool I have seen people focussing upon various types of cotton wools available in the market with an aim to purchase cotton of the best quality.

This is what we are planning to do in this article but this does not mean that we will be displaying to you different types of cotton wools but a new type of soakaway drainage system known as the Mound system. When we take up something separately it means there will be a lot of information or important information upon it that will aid us in making a correct decision in choosing a product. When we talk about the word mounds I must tell you that this is something that is not valid in this new world. Earlier yes this system was in use but now its demand, its use has certainly gone down in fact has depleted.

The first line itself has made you take the decision but here lots more to come up with that will make things much clearer in your mind. The first line says that mound systems are no longer appropriate but what you would remark is that there are several people who have these systems installed in their house. So here is something vital the homeowner needs to know if they don’t know still.

Mound systems refer basically to ‘raised drain fields’ came into existence during 1940s. As per the conditions that were required to build these systems were impermeable soil, high ground water level and not to forget the limited conditions. Until the last year this system was in heavy use but with the arrival of new and efficient technologies, high costs and numerous mound failures have led to their decline. In case there are regions where the mound systems are being used still then you needs to check in some of the new and better alternatives for yourself.

To give a physical description a mound basically consist of a sand bed found over lightly tilted native soil while on top of it there is a gravel distribution bed and lastly a cover of top soil over the mound. Perforated pipes are used to handle the entire situation which works to distribute the effluent on the distribution bed through pressure. Remember always that these perforated pipes are there in the gravel bed. However earlier we have even seen many of the mound systems that were not at all pressure filled. The advantage of using a pressurised dose-filled drain filled is that it helps in the even distribution of the septic effluent which obviously does not create any sort of clogging issues.

Like mound systems there several more that can be discussed but above all what we need to do is to study them all though not in detail but understand what these soak away drainage system are meant to provide us and then choose among them to bring the best for your hose.
