How to Choose a New Septic Tank or Septic System
Whether you are replacing a septic system or installing a new one it is important to know which type of septic system you need for your property. You’ll want to consider:
- The tank size: these range from 50 to 3,000 gallons. Oregon has minimum size standards depending on the number of bedrooms in a home
- Tank configuration: Tanks come in different shapes and sizes, like narrow or wide, tall or short, and one or two compartments. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages
- Tank material: septic tanks can be made from concrete, steel, fiberglass, high-density plastic, and low-density plastic

How Long Does a Septic Install Take?
Most septic installations take about 3-5 business days. But this depends on several factors including:
- Your location
- The weather
- The wastewater treatment system
- Regulations
After your septic system has been installed, the county will inspect it and perform a series of tests to make sure your septic system is watertight and installed correctly. Once the county has approved your septic system, you can begin using it.
