I highly recommend Charles Noddin from Belmont, NH. He designed a system for us to replace an existing 1935 septic tank. He sat down with us and discussed the process from start to finish including the state regulations and potential pitfalls. He spent about 1-1/2 hours with us and answered all of our questions during his initial visit.

Since our plan was considered a "change in use" by both the state and the town, the approval process took about 3 months. Mr. Noddin handled all of the paperwork and was our intermediary each time the town/state asked for additional information.

idigtractors is 100% correct that a septic designer will design the system for your conditions. I would add that the design is also part of a "perfect world" scenario. The design will take topography, state regulations and perk tests into account; but until they start digging, you won't know if they will find ledge where your tank is supposed to go!

Please feel free to pm me if you want additional information

Best wishes!
