Sewage disposal
As will be explained later, the length of sub-surface tiling necessary
to receive a given quantity of sewage effluent should vary, within
certain limits, with the character and porosity of the soil, thus
requiring larger quantities of effluent to be delivered from the siphon
or dosing chamber in the case of the more compact soils. Also the size
of this chamber should be determined with reference to the number of
sections into which the sub-surface tiling system is divided.
