How do you install dry well for washing machine?
A drywell is a hole in the ground filled with crushed stone that helps store and distribute the discharge of a washing machine underground. In many jurisdictions it is unlawful and a washing machine must be tied into a sewer system if one is available. A drywell is a much better method if the structure uses a septic tank because the disharge from the washer will overload the septic tank. There is no set method for installing a drywell unless a standard is adopted by ordinance. A typical size for a single family residence would be about 2 feet by 2 feet, and about 3 feet deep. This provides about 24 square feet of soil that can soak up the water. The drywell designed above will hold about 50 gallons of water. A more accurate method of calculating the size needed could be performed if the amount of water used per cycle and the frequency of use is known. The permeability of the soil would also be a factor.
