    Leach drains are installed to support septic tank systems. They are tube-like boxes made from concrete or plastic and have holes on its sides, which allow water to soak the surrounding ground. When wastewater travels through the septic tank system, solid waste sinks to the bottom to go through microbial digestion, while the liquid flows out out of the container to the leach drain and into the soil.

    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 at bay. This will help in protecting against obstructions and makes leach drains maintenance much more difficult than it is.
