System Types We Install in Greensboro

Aqua Drill, Inc. installs the right system for your site. The three most common options are the conventional gravity system, the Infiltrator chamber system, and the EZ Flow alternative system. Conventional systems work best on lots with adequate drainage. Infiltrator and EZ Flow systems use recycled plastic chambers instead of gravel, reducing the required land footprint by 24% or more and often performing better on tighter lots.

Matching the System to Guilford County Soil

Greensboro sits in the Piedmont Triad, where dense red clay creates NC Group III and IV soils that absorb water slowly and saturate quickly during summer storms. Conventional gravity systems on this clay can oversaturate and fail, while Infiltrator and EZ Flow systems better match what the clay can handle. Properties toward Oak Ridge, Stokesdale, and McLeansville may also encounter saprolite, a weathered rock layer that can affect drain field depth.

Permits Required for Septic Installation in Guilford County

All septic system installation work in Guilford County requires permits issued through the Guilford County Division of Public Health Environmental Health program before any digging begins. The process involves three steps.

  1. Improvement Permit (IP): The county evaluates your soil and site to confirm a system can be built and determines what type is allowed.
  2. Construction Authorization (CA): Specifies tank size, drain field dimensions, and pipe layout. No excavation may begin without this document.
  3. Operation Permit (OP): After installation, the county inspects the finished system and issues an OP confirming it was built to the approved design.
