Location
The location of an infiltration system should be selected such that percolating escaping water does not
cause damage to buildings or other installations. To avoid erosion and accumulation, an infiltration
system should also be located at a distance of at least 1.5 times the installation depth.
A
The distance between the installation base of an infiltration system and the average highest groundwater
level expected must not fall below one metre according to most national standards. If this distance does
fall below one metre, approval must be sort from the relevant authorities.
Distance (A') to existing or planned trees must also be at least the expected crown diameter (A).
