The PED system for domestic applications

The PED system - domestic and light commercial wastewater dispersal

The PED (Precision Effluent Dispersal) system is a low-pressure, high efficiency irrigation system that uses buried drip tubes to disperse treated effluent and wastewater. Sub-surface drip irrigation technologies have been a part of irrigated agriculture since the 1960s; with the technology advancing rapidly in the last three decades. Using the latest technologies, the PED system is a highly efficient and flexible wastewater dispersal system that can provide frequent light irrigations.

The PED system is suitable for multiple applications including single houses, housing estates, and small business parks, where wastewater can be dispersed and reused safely, efficiently, sustainably and according to environmental regulations.

The PED system is fully licenced by the EPA in Ireland. We have installed the largest system of its kind in Europe.

Reuses wastewater for irrigation

How does the PED system work?

The PED system uses sub-surface drip irrigation, where domestic wastewater is disposed from flow emitters evenly spaced along a flexible low density polyethylene dripline. The dripline is buried between 200-500mm below the ground and effluent is distributed slowly and uniformly over a large surface area. 


As the water is applied below the soil surface, the effect of surface irrigation characteristics, such as crusting and potential surface run off, are eliminated.

Why choose the PED system for your project?

There are many advantages to installing a PED system for domestic wastewater dispersal, including:

  • A high degree of control over water application
  • Reduced evaporation
  • Frequent irrigation allows for optimum soil moisture content in the root zone
  • Impressive performance in windy and arid locations
  • If pre-treated wastewater is used for irrigation, the risk of direct contact with crops and labourers is reduced

A fully licenced system

The PED system is uniquely certified by the Irish Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for precision effulent dispersal. As the EPA no longer accepts the septic tank and percolation system, the PED system therefore provides the perfect approved solutions for domestic developments.
