Connecticut Status
The Enviro-Septic® Wastewater Treatment System is approved for use in Connecticut; however, our current approval requires the system to be designed in much the same way as a conventional pipe and stone system. In other states where we are approved for use, our systems are given a significantly reduced bed size and/or reduced separation distance to restrictive features in recognition of our superior treatment capabilities. For example, in New Hampshire, our bed size can be less than half the size of a conventional leachfield, and our system can be installed closer to the water table than any other approved product.
The smaller bed size requirement is primarily what makes our system a good value to the consumer, since less fill material, excavation, and labor is required to install our system. However, since the State of Connecticut does not allow for a bed size reduction with our product, using our system would simply not be cost-effective for the consumer. For this reason, we have elected not to distribute Enviro-Septic® in Connecticut at this time.
However, should your particular designer or local approving authority be agreeable to developing a design for your property that is in accordance with our guidelines, we would be happy to assist your designer in the design process. If that is the case, please contact us for further information.
