Use this site as a planning tool, not as engineering or legal approval.

These terms describe the intended use of the public estimator and related content. They set the operating boundaries for a planning tool, not a permit or compliance service.

Estimate-only use

Results are planning estimates designed to help users ask better questions before speaking with local septic professionals.

Outputs are not engineered designs.
Outputs are not code-compliance determinations.
Outputs are not permit approvals or official state calculations.

User responsibility

Users remain responsible for confirming local permit rules, system feasibility, and contractor qualifications.

County and local authorities may override state-level general guidance.
Actual cost depends on site evaluation, system type, access, and local scope.
Homebuyers should still request system records and inspection evidence before closing.

Commercial use and availability

The site may evolve, change coverage, or stop accepting quote requests without notice if source coverage, partner availability, or product scope changes.

Content may be updated when sources change or pages are re-verified.
Quote matching is not guaranteed in every state or project category.
No warranty is made that any estimate range will match a final contractor proposal.

Important note

Trust the workflow, not fake precision

Use the estimate to narrow the likely range, then verify locally and collect real quotes.
