Deciding where to place a septic tank within a property involves a number of factors. A septic system service professional will consider all of the variables to help a property owner make a decision that provides the best results. The septic tank repair and installation team at First Quality Environmental, based in Waimanalo, has more than two decades of experience delivering superior service to clients throughout Oahu and the Hawaiian islands.

When assessing a property and determining where to install a septic tank, keep the following three key factors in mind:

• Local Codes: Typically, a municipality will place restrictions on where a septic tank can be installed, requiring the system to be set back a certain distance from the property line. When conforming to the local setback requirements, the engineer will take into consideration the location of the leach field and distance from the structure it will serve, meeting all local restrictions.
• Property Use: In order to ensure proper function, a septic system needs to be placed at the right distance from the structure. The biggest factor in this decision is the size of the overall property. A septic system service expert will know the proper distance and size of tank to install so water can flow properly from all areas of the house.
• Access: To install a new septic tank, heavy equipment is needed to excavate the area. When picking the right placement for your septic system, consider an area of the property where large equipment can safely and properly gain access.
