Percolation test: Testing method, Alternatives & Overview

A percolation test (colloquially called a perc test) is a test to determine the water absorption rate of soil (that is, its capacity for percolation) in preparation for the building of a septic drain field (leach field) or infiltration basin. The results of a percolation test are required to design a septic system properly. In its broadest terms…
