The
Infiltrator
Chamber System for Septic Leachfields.
|
| |
| Standard and High
Capacity Infiltrator chambers provide up to twice the infiltrative
capacity of stone and pipe systems.
The Infiltrator Chamber System
is a direct replacement for old-fashioned stone and pipe leachfields
installed in a three-foot wide trench. Infiltrator chambers sit directly
on the trench bottom. The patented interlocks add strength and latch the
chambers together quickly, end to end, so installation takes less than
half the time of a laborious stone and pipe job.
Infiltrator chambers may be used
for any application that is suitable for stone and pipe. However, by
offering greater infiltrative capacity per linear foot, Infiltrator
Chamber Systems can require as little as half the space as conventional
systems, depending on state and local regulations.

Patented
MicroLeaching(TM)
sidewall.
The Infiltrator
chamber has an engineered, louvered sidewall that allows effluent
to pass laterally into the soil. The angled louvers prevent
backfill intrusion into the chamber while 1/4" slots allow
lateral leaching.
Open chamber bottom
boosts infiltration.
The chamber bottom is completely open, promoting effluent
infiltration into the soil with 100% efficiency. The open-bottom
area, in combination with the MicroLeaching sidewall, provides
maximum infiltrative capacity for long-term, trouble-free service.

PolyTuff(TM)
polyolefin construction.
Infiltrator chambers are molded of
PolyTuff plastic, a proprietary blend of polyolefin, formulated for
optimum strength and chemical resistance. Its impervious to wastewater
constituents and is stabilized to resist ultraviolet rays. Infiltrator
chambers are manufactured using an exclusive patented process to assure
consistent high quality. They are the toughest, most-reliable chambers in
the industry.
AASHTO H-10 and H-20 load
ratings.
Infiltrator chambers have been structurally tested by a registered
professional engineer. Both Standard and High Capacity chambers are
available with AASHTO ratings of H-10 (16,000 lb/axle with 12" of
compacted cover) or H-20 (32,000 lb/axle with 18" of compacted
cover).

| Infiltrator
Chamber System Advantages. |
|
Easy assembly
and installation by two people. |
|
Only a
backhoe and pickup truck are required. |
|
Lightweight
chambers can be delivered in one pickup truck load and
hand-carried into position. |
|
Entire trench
bottom is open for effluent infiltration with 100% efficiency. |
|
There is less
regrading, tree damage, and landscape repair involved, and no
stone cleanup. |
|
Inspection
port is available for easy access to leachfield with no site
disruption. |

Infiltrator Systems
Inc., the world leader in septic
and stormwater chamber system technology.
Over 13 million chambers
already in service.
In just thirteen years, the innovative leaching chambers of
Infiltrator Systems have drastically changed the technology of on-site
septic and stormwater disposal. Already, over 13 million chambers have
been installed in 50 states, Canada and overseas, forming over 240 million
square feet of chamber systems with a success rate of 99%. And, were
expanding at the rate of 12,000 new systems a month.
Environmentally concerned
company.
Infiltrator Systems devotes over $1,000,000 a year to research and
development, creating new products that operate more and more efficiently
and conserve natural resources. Besides using recycled resins, Infiltrator
Systems products take better care of the environment by avoiding the
mining, crushing, grading, washing, and hauling of stone, as well as the
environmental impact and site disruption that stone causes. Thats one
of our "greener" ideas for septic and stormwater disposal that
just makes sense.
