Everything related to health and hygiene is grouped in what is called “the sanitary”. More specifically, it is the bathroom and the toilet. In most homes, these two rooms are combined. In addition, there are the showers, laundry room, and kitchen. The plumbing system distributes water and/or gas to your home. Its installation is not improvised, hence the need to call an expert plumber. The latter can also perform other work such as the connection of sanitary appliances like the washing machine, the installation of your bathtub, etc.

Things to Remember Before Proceeding

It is essential to know a few things before proceeding with a plumbing connection. First of all, you should know that there are several pipes: the main pipe (22mm diameter), and the 12mm pipes that run from other pipes to the tap. Next, you need to think about the materials that make up the pipes. For gas pipes, it is much better to choose copper pipes. For the comfort of use of each sanitary element, specific measures should be carefully observed.

The Principle of a Drain Field

A leaching bed is defined as an elaborate device for removing contaminants and impurities from wastewater in septic tanks. This device is generally composed of perforated pipes buried in trenches. Their primary purpose is to pre-treatment water from sanitary installations before it is released into the water table or landfill.

Dimensions to Be Respected

For the leaching bed not to saturate too quickly, the size of the leaching bed must be proportional to the number of occupants in the house. For a home with 3 bedrooms, you need 750 gallons; for 4 bedrooms, 1,050 gallons, and 5 bedrooms, 1,500 gallons.
