Homemade septic tank of cubic containers

For the manufacture of homemade septic tank of two tanks of 700 liters, we used cheap materials at hand, based on the standard scheme. Optionally, you can use 100 liters of capacity and also combine their scheme. We pass by the theoretical foundations for septic tanks - information can be found online.

Let us dwell on design features and materials for homemade septic tank. It is worth noting that the collected under this scheme septic successfully operates in summer and winter time does not create problems with the operation. Only in the first year of use should be regularly fill bacterial drugs to avoid unpleasant odors in the bathroom. We used an American doctor Roebik, then moved to Moscow Tamir.

Let us dwell on the necessity of putting the tee on all headroom pipes inside the tank - this will help avoid surface clogging soaps, shampoos, etc. Compound is also necessary level above the vapor tube liquid. For such a connection, we used conventional pipes warmed later foam and polyethylene foam. For better use of external sewage pipe red. All the compounds we liberally coat with silicone sealant and sanitary wrap tape. If desired, the compounds of tubes with tanks can walk epoxide. It is recommended to set the output to a pipe on the aeration-return valve, which prevents leaking of groundwater. Part of this can be removed in the negative slope outlet tube and filter box.

Placed in the ground tanks strengthened with outer side flaps (wooden or iron), to insulate the sides and top. Also, warm coming out of the house sewer pipe. On vysokopuchnistyh ground tanks better pour the concrete, so they do not pop up, but the turf should not do. Also, it is necessary to withdraw ventilation.

Theoretically, its output should not be less than four meters, but in practice, the height of one and a half meters is no worse - the smell from the air was absent. For a septic tank is also important to follow some rules, for example, do not throw toilet paper in the toilet, do not pour the detergent in large quantities.

To avoid killing beneficial bacteria, we took the bathroom once in the second tank, which provided more conditions for the bacteria in the first septic tank. Unlike round septic tanks, septic tanks of our tanks were seen during ascent during soil heaving. But for reinsurance should bind them to the concrete tile - stand. Quartz sand, gravel, anthracite, granulated blast furnace slag, resins, crushed granite, concrete block - all of these materials are allowed to be used as filter material.

It is also possible to use other particulate materials which have the necessary technological features, mechanical strength and chemical resistance.
