Eljen GSF - Model A42 -Geotextile Sand Filter
The Eljen GSF (Geotextile Sand Filter) is an alternative onsite septic leachfield system. Each GSF Module is made up of geotextile fabric and a plastic core material that work together to provide vertical surface area and oxygen transfer. The GSF System applies secondary treated effluent to the soil, increasing the soil’s long-term acceptance rate. A Specified Sand layer provides additional filtration, and prevents saturated conditions.
Installation shall comply with the latest installation instructions published by Eljen Corporation and abide by local regulations. Eljen Modules are installed along their 4-foot lengths on a base of stabilized Specified Sand, with the painted stripe facing up. A 4? perforated pipe is centered on top of the Modules, and is secured with supplied metal clamps (one per Module). Cover fabric is supplied by Eljen and substitutions are not allowed. Specified Sand is placed along both sides of the Module, and at the beginning and end of each row once the cover fabric is in place. For more specifications and detailed installation instructions consult the appropriate Design and Installation Manual.
