Has she become savy on the technical issues of your lifestyle? You sound like you have a wonderful relationship, and much expertise. This is the first I have thought about going off the grid. I'm retired from computer work and it intrigues me. I own a 34.5' Paradise Point 5th wheel. What is your home like?

Sorry, I can't recommend anyone. I had my system installed by a man who lives within 15 miles of my house. I know he travels long distances and may give you a quote. He wasn't the least expensive. I got a quote of $2000 from one person and the man who installed it charged $3,500. I didn't have confidence in the lowest quote. My system was installed by Ralph Pinheiro (Pinheiro’s Excavating and Contruction) — 928-526-3818. Good luck! Jessica,

Also can you recommend someone to install the whole septic system? Prices I've gotten are quite steep. Thanks.
