myfs_156152 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 HelloI am new to your sit andfind it a tremendous source of information. My questions is that we are considering buying a house where the home's waste wateris routed to an underground reservoir thatis on your land about20 feet from the house. This reservoir gets emptied about 1 time per year. I know this cannot be good, but is there anything Ican do to ensure that this"waste" does not harm us in any way? Or should weconsider buying anotherhome where water waste goes into the city sewer system (rather than your ownpersonal system)? Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 21, 2012 Staff Share Posted November 21, 2012 1. In my opinion, this has more to do with common sense.2. Can search for "dangers of underground water"3. More importantly, it is always not adviceable e.g. to stay close to locations where "fumes" can emit. 3.1 For example, it is not ideal to stay next door to a petrol station. Why?3.2. Common sense says that fumes be it from people pumping petrol into their car-tanks or from underground storage beneath the station can emit fumes.4. A key ingredient of Feng Shui = Wind and Water = "steam" (or gas). And such locations may produce too much (emit) too much of such unhealthy fumes). In addition to higher probability of an explosion vs staying next to a church.5. Thus, in your case, just beware of fumes from gas such as methane (sewerage) etc...
