Howdy,
I've got a fairly typical rural septic tank (two, actually) with leech
field setup. I've also got an RV.
I want to put in a T or whatever in the line from the house going to the
septic tank, with a screw on cap so that I can dump the RV's tanks at
home.
Is there anything to this beyond just digging down to the pipe, gluing in
a T with a capped riser, and filling the hole back in? You do glue septic
pipe, right?
Do I need to worry about freezing weather with this? The existing pipe is
(presumably) below the frost line, but now I'm going to have a 2' or 3' or
whatever pipe with essentially no insulation going up above the frost
line...
Thanks for any advice!
Mark
