![]() The baffle keeps most these things in the first compartment and the tee is to prevent any floaters that surface in the second compartment from going into the drain-lines. The tank is designed to allow heavy things to sink to the bottom and grease, oils and other floaters to come to the top. Some counties require a filter on the outlet I'm not sure about Chatham. ![]() In NC if you are in a new house and the septic system is new, the tank should have a baffle between the first and second compartment and a tee on the outlet. I would still go with the solids handling pump but I think it would be all right to go with a grinder pump. If I do install an ejector, where should the well/ejector be located? I don't want an above ground (AKA visible) Sewage Line and think that I'd need to place the well further downgrade (or deeper into the ground) so that the well is gravity fed and has some back pressure on the line to the septic tank. ![]() I've looked at both and while it's clear that an ejector would be lower cost, I want to install the correct pump for the job.Īlso, I've read (on a Composting Toilet website) that output from a Grinder pump shouldn't be pumped into a septic tank because the solids are TOO mascerated and will flow out the drain side before settling. Should it be a Grinder Pump or Sewage Ejector? I think I need to install a pump of some sort. ![]() The workshop is on the same side of the house as the septic tank (approximately 50-75ft away from the tank inlet) but the problem is, with the grade of the property, the workshop is not high enough above the level of the septic tank to get proper gravity drainage. I am building a workshop with a half bath about 75-100 feet from my main house. ![]()
