Drain Rock (Septic)
Applications & Uses
Drain Rock with Septic Attribute
Drain rock with a septic attribute is a specialized aggregate designed for optimal performance in septic system installations. This material typically consists of clean, durable stones that are screened to remove fines, ensuring consistent drainage and minimal clogging. The septic attribute indicates that the rock meets specific standards for use in leach fields and other wastewater management applications, where reliable filtration and water flow are critical.
The absence of fine particles in septic drain rock allows for excellent permeability, making it ideal for dispersing effluent in residential and commercial septic systems. Its clean, angular composition helps prevent compaction, maintaining open voids for water movement and reducing the risk of system failure. While primarily used in septic fields, this material is also suitable for French drains, foundation drainage, and other applications where superior drainage is required. The main advantage of septic drain rock is its ability to support long-term system performance, though it may not be suitable for areas requiring compacted bases.
