The septic system was backfilled and is now complete. I’m not sure what the two 4-in PVC pipes are for; they are approx. in line with the leaching trenches, but are not shown on the septic plan drawings.

Also installed recently was the fireplace. Note that excess heat can be transferred to the basement.

The house is toasty warm with only two heaters running to dry the plaster - although it’s still quite humid.

Enjoy the photos.
