Septic Tank & Cesspool Emptying

Desludging a septic tank
It is both necessary and important to have your septic tank or sewage treatment plant emptied annually to ensure proper functioning of the unit, but there are a few factors to bear in mind before having your tank or treatment plant emptied:
• Septic tanks and sewage treatment plants should never be completely emptied - there should always be a small amount of sludge left in-situ at the bottom of the tank to ensure bacteria continues to breed in the unit. This guidance applies to both septic tanks and sewage treatment plants.

• Make sure you use a reputable company to empty your tank. Most damage is done to septic tanks or sewage treatment plants during emptying by the high pressure hoses that are used in the emptying process.
At Septic Tank Supplies we can offer an emptying service second to none across the country with our recommended partners. For more information please call us on 01923 261660

Difference Between A Septic Tank & Cesspool

At Septic Tank Supplies we get asked daily what the difference is between a septic tank and a cesspool.

The simple answer is that a cesspool has no outlet and all the waste water is stored inside the system and needs to be emptied by a tanker, usually once a month depending on size and usage.
With a septic tank they have an outlet pipe and therefore only store the sludge and all the waste water passes on through the system and out into a soakaway. With a septic tank they are designed to be emptied annually depending on the size and usage this can be longer.

There are two types of cesspools supplied in the United Kingdom, there is domestic sized cesspool and commercial sized cesspool;

·         Domestic cesspools start at 18,000 litres and would cater for two people or a one bed room property and for every extra person another 6,800 litres needs to be added to size. Domestic cesspools are required to hold 45 days storage before requiring emptying.

·         Commercial cesspools are a little bit more tricky to size as you need to work out the flow that will be running into them. Commercial cesspools start at 2,800 litres and go right up to 79,000 litres. For help sizing a commercial cesspool please give us a call on 01923 261660.
             Commercial cesspools are ideal for camp sites, caravan parks and fishing lakes.

Cesspools are usually a last resort due to the size required and the constant need for emptying, but where a site has very little area for a soakaway or a high water table there may be no other solution.

Sewage Explained



Sewage, also known as waste-water,  is water based waste that normally needs to be removed from an area.  It commonly contains physical, chemical or biological waste.  There are different types of sewage, ranging from commercial, agricultural, sanitary and surface water -waste.  Sewage is often discharged from a property through a underground drainage network.  It is then needed to be carried off to be treated before being released back into the environment. There are many different ways to treat sewage, and many countries vary their approach.



In most countries there is a national sewage system, however not all properties are connected, depending on their location.  If this is the case then you will have to install and maintain either a septic tank, sewage treatment plant or a cesspool.  Cesspools are only used as a last resort if a soak away cannot be installed.  A soak is where the treated sewage water is discharged over a large sewage area.  It consists of a network of perforated  drain pipes usually in a herringbone system, that lets the water drain naturally over a period of time back into the ground.   Most people currently prefer the sewage treatment plants, as it is better for the environment and has the option of being discharged into a watercourse with consent.

There are so many reasons we need to make sure that all forms of sewage are collected in a safe manner and then dealt with, making sure that all toxic substances are removed before the treated material is then reused. At Septic Tank Supplies we make sure all the sewage tanks we sell have been tested to the latest certification to be used in the United Kingdom.

Cesspools

Sewage Cesspools


A critical development to industrial or perhaps commercial business sites that have limited sewage release structures is the implementation of sewage cesspools and when looking at this delicate operation, it is vital that you only ever use the best in the business.
Septic Tank Supplies have the very systems available to ease the trauma that having little or no sewage connections can hold for businesses and, truly aware of how many sites are still without correct sewage disposal throughout the UK, are incredibly keen to rectify your needs quickly, efficiently and at low cost to you.
Sewage cesspools are single-chambered storage tanks that have no outlet, so must be manually emptied at varying occasions by a licensed sewage contractor for the correct and safe off-site riddance. Comprising a very large tank that holds all waste water (not just raw sewage), they are often made of concrete or brick and Septic Tank Supplies can competently provide you with the accurately sized sewage cesspools to meet your individual needs.
Being the top sewage cesspools supplier for the UK, Septic Tank Supplies have a range of sewage cesspools to suit your needs that are incredibly easy to operate and empty once installed by a select team of experts in this particular field.
With years of experience in the use and fitting of sewage cesspools, Septic Tank Supplies are confidently able to bring you high specification products that require very little maintenance.
Offering free site visits, Septic Tank Supplies are keen to provide you with the right equipment, at the right time and equally at the right price so urge you to get in contact. To find out more about sewage cesspools and the need for them on your site, give the expert team a call on 01442 865 708.

The team at Septic Tank Supplies have many years of experience in designing all types of solutions and supplying best-fit  industrial cesspools that are low profile, low maintenance and can easily be emptied as regularly as necessary.

An industrial cesspool is particularly vital to sites where a septic tank is unable to disperse liquid into the surrounding subsoil.
Because we’re experts in our field, we can help you to select the ideal size of cesspool and all cesspools come with a years guarantee.
