    Leach drains are installed to support septic tank systems. They are tube-like boxes constructed from concrete or plastic and have openings on its sides, which enable water to soak the surrounding ground. When wastewater travels through the septic tank system, solid waste sinks to the bottom to undertake bacterial digestion, while the liquid flows out out of the container to the leach drain and right into the dirt.

    A diverter valve links the leach drain to the septic tank. When the installation of the leach drain is complete, concrete slabs are commonly made use of to seal the drain and keep debris away. This will aid in protecting against obstructions and makes leach drains maintenance even more hard than it is.
