A fluid drainage and filtering system composed of stocked in-drains and spacers wrapped serpentine fashion with a non-woven fabric of fluid pervious material. Each in-drain has a dimpled core sheet defining spaced lands and surrounding valleys and a thickness related to the pitch distance between these lands. Each spacer has outer sheets of about 1/2 the thickness of the core sheet, but also having lands surrounded by valleys. The pitch distance of the lands in these outer sheets is also about 1/2 that of the thicker core sheets so the spacers and in-drains do not tend to nest into one another when the system is installed.

[ I claim:] [1.] A subterranean drainage system for fluid filtration into the surrounding soil comprising:fluid conduit means oriented generally horizontally to provide an elongated cavity for receiving effluent from a septic tank, at least one fabric sheet provided over said fluid conduit means, and openings in the fluid conduit means for the gravity flow of effluent from the fluid conduit means,fluid filtering means below said conduit means and including a plurality of core sheets oriented in parallel vertical spaced relationship to one another where D equals the pitch distance between said core sheets, spacers of width T provided between said core sheets, said spacers having non-planar end faces abutting said core sheets and said core sheets having a dimpled non-planar contour to provide passageways for the fluid flowing downwardly from said fluid conduit means,said non-planar end faces of said spacers having a contour that avoids nesting between said contoured spacers and said contoured dimpled non-pointer core sheets, andfluid pervious filter fabric wrapped serpentine fashion over each said spacer, between said spacer and an adjacent core sheet, and under each said core sheet, and upwardly between said core sheet and the next adjacent spacer.
