How Much Does a Nitrogen-Reducing System Cost?
The cost of installing any septic system depends on the site; for example, the size of your house, how close you are to water, how much fill dirt is needed, your soil type and other such site conditions. For example, a three-bedroom house, installing a traditional septic system costs from $2,000 to $8,000. Installing a nitrogen-reducing system costs from $8,000 to $15,000. Nitrogen-reducing systems also have small monthly electricity costs. Operating permits and maintenance contracts add to the costs too. How Do I Get a Nitrogen-Reducing System? The first step is to contact either a septic system installer or an engineer who works with these systems. You may find it helpful to visit http://www.doh.state.fl.us/ENVIRONMENT/ostds/ to see a list of licensed installers. There, too, you will find general information on septic systems and nitrogen-reducing systems. How Do I Maintain a Nitrogen-Reducing System? The installer (or other maintenance company) will check the system 2-4 times yearly
