Excellent book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I got the edition revised by some guy named Blackwell. I bought this book after reading it at the library. It arrived, but did not stay [due to my use and abuse], in excellent condition. The information is excellent and detailed. But I wish there was more. For example there is a comment about what I think is cisterns, but no detailed instructions on how to build one. A value tool to anyone who needs or wants DIY water and septic, could literally save you thousands of dollars, even if you don't Do it yourself.
Help when needed

This book was everything the seller had said it was. It was valuable for the self-help person.
Wells and Septic Systems
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book has given me an introduction to the information needed to replace my septic field with regard to the length and depth of the field trenches and components needed. The book reviews the basics on perculation testing and various calculations for determining the trench dimensions as well as the amount and type of stone and dirt backfill needed. You then need to compare this data to your local code(Pa. Chapter 73 in my case). All States are a little different on their exact requirements for the work.
A textbook on wells and septic systems

Book reads like a textbook. However, very detailed information provides good fundamental knowledge of the topic.
