Not a whole lot of pitch for a 55'+ run,if I understand correctly 1/4" per ft, needs 13-14" of fall. Too much and water will run too fast and won't carry the solids. Exactly,,even at 1/8 /ft he should have 1-1/4" /10' When I said "If I understand correctly" I meant his math. Seems shallow. It is shallow as fuuuk . Espically coming out of the house. And then momo robbing me of 1 to 1.5 inch drop from the main from the house by the rubber connector and clean out being set low like that. Wait one. Will btt what I'm saying.

Wow! There’s a lot of science in disposing of a turd. Mine just goes out into a concrete box buried in the yard.

You need to pull an 811 ticket too Shush... Mr I live out in the county guy and can get away with schitt... 🥴🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🥴 ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/TYXnTQV7/20230313-155851.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/zfPn5r7K/20230313-155906.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/KjtLng2D/20230313-155943.jpg) Done for the day. Need to address the clean out valve . Replace that and have the fuuuking cap thing above ground Loosing a inch right off the back from the house from whoever Did the craptastic joint job on that. Pipe looks good to me so far Got about 25 ft more to that circle in the pic to the city pipe you can the low spot in the lawn where the pipe has settled. Cause sir dick of head whoever didn't do it right before... 😡😡😡 Probably get the concrete saw in the morning Get the walkway cut on the pour joints. Get those sections moved. Dig out that section then to the city line. Get a level on the pipe see where I gotta bring it up to fix the bow and get slope to city line from the house line Fuuking cantaloupe size rocks all in the back fill all over the pipe from zippy the pinhead who did it before. JFC...... Cleanout pic... This abortion right here at the cleanout sits 1 to 1.5 inches below the lowest level of the house main. Already robbing me of slope. It will be fixed and covered 3 to 4vft of either of line with 4 to 6 inches of dirt sloped out into the yard.

Low water flush toilets. 😡😡😡 I’ve got a commercial building up here with an incredibly long gradual waste grade. With remodeling for new tenants those dam low flush toilets are all that can be had. Try to get your family to start the sink running the moment they step in to use the toilet,leave it run, by the time they flush the skids are wet. Makes all the difference in the world. Osky

Any 90° in sewer service at all under house? Just the 2 turns from the toilets. Main is fully visible thru garage to foundation. When I pull the toilets and replace the wax rings. Gonna hit those both with my 50 ft snake out the the exit side of the house. Then run a house inside the house and flush out. Then put wax rings and toilets back in. Already did the roof vent.

Is that a Ferco at PVC cleanout to whatever is under house? Big Ole rubber 4 to 6 thing. You can see how the bottom of the clean out is sitting below the bottom level of the main. It wasn't set right or settled from not being bedded under it right and on that 1st run of pipe going to the unfuuuking glued connector under the side walk I discovered later Which was at the house end of the bowed long pipe That 1st section of pipe was basicallydead level coming out of the house going into the bowed section starting under the side walk going to that rubber sleeve area where I had my "pleasant" discoveries today That robbing point area at the house main was the 1st obvious fuuked up thing I encountered... 🤦♂️😡🤦♂️

Wow! There’s a lot of science in disposing of a turd. Mine just goes out into a concrete box buried in the yard. And then into something else after the concrete box. I assumed the liquids drained out through the full lines, but the solids stayed in the box until dissolved. Is that incorrect?

2 part chamber, chunky side, effluent side
The soup side goes out the perforated pipe or chamber domes

The soup side goes out the perforated pipe or chamber domes Unless just an old gravity set up. Still a lot of old tanks here that don't even have an aerator. Not so sure our new set up won't be 3 chambers with a pump on a timer or float to pump water up hill into field then gravity back into 3rd chamber. No liquid stays in pressure line. Shallow system that uses vegetation and evaporation to keep from saturating the ground touch.
