ABSTRACT:
A discharge system for a septic tank is disclosed which has a dump valve means at the outlet thereof for controlling the discharge of effluent. Leading from the dump valve is a central pipe that then has a plurality of smaller pipes interconnected therewith, the smaller pipes being interconnected so that the lower wall of the smaller pipes are in line with the lower wall of the larger pipe. Additionally, diverter valve or valve means as the case may be are provided for closing off part of the distribution system, and the distribution system itself is particularly characterized by having particular designed apertures through the lower circumferential section thereof so that the effluent will leach out of the pipes throughout their length by providing apertures at the far end of the pipe at the lower most circumferential portion and then progressively increasing the height of the holes as one goes back toward the central pipe and/or the septic tank.
