This article explains how to find the septic drainfield or leach field or soakaway bed. InspectAPedia tolerates no conflicts of interest. We have no relationship with advertisers nor with topics or services discussed at this website.This article series and our accompanying septic system location videos explains how to find the leach field or drainfield portion of a septic system. We include sketches and photos that help you learn what to look for, and we describe several methods useful for finding buried drainfield components. Septic drain fields are also called soil absorption systems or seepage beds. Also see How to Find the Septic Tank. The septic system video#2 at right describes walking a homesite by a lake in order to reason that the drainfield must be not only uphill from the lake but in this case uphill from the septic tank too. A septic pumping system will be needed. More videos on septic system location & maintenance are at SEPTIC VIDEOS.
