A practical, one-step resource for working with water wells and septic systems.

Each year, thousands upon thousands of Americans install water wells and septic systems on their properties.

Written in language any property owner can understand—yet detailed enough for professionals and technical students—this easy-to-use volume delivers the latest techniques and code requirements for designing, building, rehabilitating, and maintaining private water wells and septic systems. Bolstered by a wealth of informative charts, tables, and illustrations, this book delivers:

  • Current construction, maintenance, and repair methods
  • New International Private Sewage Disposal Code
  • Up-to-date standards from the American Water Works Association
  • Packed with 200 illustrations
