@OntarioSeptic Thank you for joining us! We’re really glad you found the discussion valuable — these are exactly the kinds of industry conversations we hoped to spark.

Always a pleasure connecting with you.

Great event @GunnellEngineer!

We learned a lot about making sand, the costs, realities of QAQC and the need to start thinking above sand supplements & alternatives based on supply longevity & the pressures to meet CTD design specs for their custom sands

Thank you

💡 Did you know?
Septic systems are vital in the treatment of various contaminants, especially E.coli 🦠
A proper functioning septic system protects groundwater and surface water from fecal contamination.
The presence of E.coli in water is an indication of contamination.

🍂 As the seasons change, so do the demands on your septic system. Fall is the perfect time to check for drainage issues before the ground freezes.

A small step now can save big headaches later.

Septic design is changing — Today’s systems are smarter, longer-lasting, and more eco-friendly than ever.

Modern designs can include advanced treatment units and eco-friendly layouts that reduce impact on groundwater and nearby ecosystems.

Ever wondered what goes into a septic system design❓
It’s more than just a tank in the ground...

We consider:
🟦Soil conditions
🟦Lot area & setbacks
🟦Topography
🟦Daily design flow
🟦Household or site usage

That’s why thoughtful design is so important. A “one-size-fits-all” approach just doesn’t work.

And it's why we’re proud to do what we do.✏️💼

🗨️What’s something about septic systems you’ve always wondered about?

[Gunnell Engineering @GunnellEngineer]

The key to a septic system's longevity mostly relies on how well it’s designed for your property.

Every property is unique. Soil conditions, slope, water table depth, etc. — all of these affect how long a system will perform well.

💧Did you know a well-maintained septic system can last 20–30 years (sometimes longer)?
Regular inspections and the right design make all the difference.

It’s one of those behind-the-scenes systems that keeps daily life running smoothly.

New regulations focused on waterfront and rural builds in Ontario are elevating septic system standards—especially in cottage country. At Gunnell Engineering, we’re keeping pace so your next build stays compliant, eco-conscious, and reliable.

Septic systems have come a long way — modern designs are more efficient, eco-friendly, and easier to maintain than older setups. Upgrading isn’t just about replacement, it’s about long-term reliability. #Septicsystem #engineeringleadership #Teamgunnell #designers

[Gunnell Engineering @GunnellEngineer]

Great septic systems start with great design.

That’s why we develop site-specific solutions based on soil conditions, usage needs, and long-term performance.

It’s not just engineering — it’s protecting your investment.

📐Tip Tuesday:

Always start your septic system design with a proper site and soil evaluation.

It’s the key to long-term performance — and helps prevent costly issues down the line. #TipTuesday #SepticDesign #TeamGunnell

Wrapping up a productive week at Gunnell Engineering!

From site assessments to septic design reviews, the team’s been all in.

Now, it’s time to recharge and get ready for another week of building better-designed systems. 💧🛠️
