Drainage Fields/Soakaways

J&R Drainage Solutions Ltd can install a soakaway system or a drain field (also called a drainage field), depending on what type of water is needing to be discharged or removed. These systems take wastewater from your septic tank and discharge it safely into the ground without causing pollution.

In 2015 rules about how wastewater and septic tank discharges came into force, so it is advisable for you to ensure that the company dealing with your drainage and soakaways understand these changes.
General binding rules for wastewater discharge.

Differences between a Drainage Field and a Soakaway

A drainage field is made up of slotted pipes in the ground and arranged so that effluent can be discharged to the ground. There are precise calculations that need to be made to ensure that effluent is treated in the soil through aerobic digestion.

A soakaway is used for allowing rainwater to percolate through the ground. It is normally constructed by installing "soakaway crates" in the ground, which allow a large volume of water to enter and slowly drain away.
