Chamber Subsurface Disposal Systems.
1.
General: Chamber systems utilize molded plastic bottomless chambers which are
installed in a drain field excavation with the open bottom of the chamber in direct contact
with the trench bottom. The chambers are linked together in such a manner as to
completely cover the excavation with adjacent chambers in contact with each other.
Effluent is introduced into the chambers and is absorbed into the soil for final treatment
and disposal. All chamber systems must be installed by a factory trained and authorized
installer.

Each model of chamber will be assigned a class designation based on the bottom
square footage of the chamber section. This square footage will be derived by a
multiple of the outside width and the useable length of the chamber section.
b.
Chamber models will be assigned a class designation according to Table 8.
