kcm.MN said: I agree with Mark's post. To add to it a bit (OK, a lot), it has been my belief that homes with conventional water softeners should have 2 separate waste water drains; one for sewage and the other for grey water, which "could" go directly onto the lawn, or could go to a grey water drainage pit. That way you have less problems all around. However, that is the more expensive option as well.
Agree with all of this. I also didn't realize the sumps were being fed from outside until late August this year. I've got just about enough drop to (almost?) daylight additional tile running from the floor drains and also from the outside tile that goes into the sump about 100 feet away, over where the old leach pit used to be. I was thinking of a drywell out there to drain both, which would be more on the order of $4-5000 by the time it's all done. I can do that if I have to, but looking for alternatives (and possible downsides of that plan).
