A mobile home septic system has to be planned before the home rolls onto the lot. Levelset2 installs these systems on lots in Summerton and about 50 miles around it. We work with home buyers and with the dealers who set the homes. Mobile home is the everyday name, and manufactured home is the formal term.
The parts match any septic system installation in Summerton: a tank and a drain field, with the lines between them. The order of work changes, since the state permit has to come before the home. Then the tank and the field have to fit around the home's pad and the drive. A small subdivision of lots falls under our commercial septic systems work.

The septic permit comes first. State rules say a mobile home cannot be moved onto a lot until its septic permit is issued. Without it, state guidance says, the county cannot issue its own permit for the home. Under the same rules, the property owner is responsible for getting the permit.
Before the state's site visit, its rules call for stakes at the corners of the home. The spots for the tank and the field get marked too. So does the stub-out, the point where the home's sewer line comes out. The state may ask for underbrush to be cleared first, and our lot clearing for home sites handles that.
Next, a state inspector bores the soil and sizes the system on the permit. Wet weather can push that visit back, since soaked ground may not give a proper reading. With the permit issued, we set a dig date that works for the dealer and the set-up crew. The system gets its final inspection before it is covered, as state rules require.
State guidance puts good soil for the septic system ahead of where the home sits. Every part of the system but solid pipe stays at least 5 feet from a building. Those parts also stay out from under a driveway or a parking area. On a mobile home lot, that keeps the tank and the field clear of the pad and the drive.
State rules also hold back a repair area at least half the size of the drain field. That ground has to stay clear of buildings and paving. Driving over a drain field can break the tank lid and pipes and pack the soil, the state warns. When we look at the lot, we check the path the home comes in on.
The bedroom count sets the size of the tank and the field. The soil can even limit how many bedrooms a lot can carry, state guidance says. Apply with the bedroom count you want before you sign for the home.
Across Clarendon County, about one home in three is a mobile home, Census survey figures show. The county Planning Department issues the set-up permit when a home is placed. Its checklist asks for the state septic permit when the lot gets a new system. A zoning certificate comes before the home is even bought.
The state environmental agency, formerly DHEC, handles Clarendon County from its Sumter office. That office also covers Sumter, Kershaw and Lee counties. The county and that office have the final word on your lot.
Lots on Lake Marion add a setback from the water. State rules keep a septic system at least 75 feet from the lake's high-water line. Some system types need 125 feet. On any lot, the soil color shows the inspector how high the water table rises in the wettest months.
