A Great Review From One Of Our Customers

This is a great review as the customer goes into detail about how he is making a saving on a shallow septic tank over a traditional bottle/onion septic tank.

Looked at the onion shaped septic tank and this one and have chosen this due to the large savings on the installation - Smaller digger, less time on site & no concrete required.

Many thanks for all your advice

Types Of Septic Tanks

Spherical Septic Tank
The Onion shape septic tank is the most commonly used septic tank style in the UK - because of their shape they are easy to install and maintain. All these tanks come with a full instruction manual on how to install and maintain in order to prevent bad odour and deterioration of the septic tank.  Most onion shape septic tanks should be installed with a concrete surround, unlike the cylindrical Tricel tank and the Clearwater Shallow Septic Tank which can be installed with a granular backfill.
The onion shape septic tank are the cheapest option on the market for off mains drainage solutions starting at just £399.
GRP Cylindrical Septic Tank
This style of septic tank has a lower invert than most other septic tanks and a 40% lower profile than the onion shape alternative. Cylindrical septic tanks are suitable for installations in high water table areas or where the construction depth cannot be too deep, the cylindrical shape also makes this type of septic tank much easier to install.
The key benefits are;
  • No concrete required, as long as the site conditions are dry
  • Shallower installation, so less soil to remove from site and smaller digger required
  • Shallower outlet, so no need to dig long deep soakaways

Rotomold Cylindrical Low Profile Septic Tanks
These tanks are very similar to the GRP type cylindrical septic tank, these septic tanks have a very low profile but because of their strong plastic construction are ideal for DIY installations. These tanks are extremely lightweight, making them very easy to move into position without needing large machinery.
These tanks have one of the shallowest installations available to date with a total height of 1.4m for the 6 person model.

Clearwater & Matrix Sewage Treatment Plants

At Septic Tank Supplies we offer a range of sewage treatment plants to cater for all kinds of applications be it domestic/residential to large commercial sites.

Two of our most popular sewage treatment plants brands are Clearwater & Matrix

The Clearwater Sewage Treatment Plant
The Clearwater uses an aeration chamber rather than a rotating disc as in the BioDisc system, so no moving internal parts.
Package Sewage Treatment System - Cutaway Plan
 
Benefits:
  • High performance rating.
  • Can be discharged directly to a watercourse.
  • Free from mechanical or electrical components within the unit - very low maintenance and running costs.
  • Minimal visual impact on surroundings - low level cover with child safe locks.
  • Controlled ventilation.
  • Annual emptying.
Process:
Three distinct process stages take place within the single tank:
  • First, coarse solids are filtered and retained for gradual breakdown.
  • Then the resulting liquid is continuously distributed over a plastic suspended filter by an integral lift, powered by a remotely sited blower.
  • Finally, the solids are allowed to settle and, under normal domestic conditions, treated water of 20mg/l BOD, 30mg/l S.S., 20mg/l Ammonia can be achieved.
The Matrix Sewage Treatment Plant

he MATRIX sewage treatment system is designed to achieve the minimum required effluent quality standard of 20mg/litre (BOD) : 30mg/litre (SS) : 20mg/litre Ammoniacal 
The certified performance of the MATRIX system is that it produces an average final effluent quality of 11mg/litre (BOD) : 16mg/litre (SS) and 7mg/litre Ammoniacal.
This relates to an average efficiency ratio of 96.2%, better than most other manufacturers. As part of the test procedure the MATRIX system was proven to have one of the lowest operating costs.
All Matrix sewage treatment plants have a standard inlet invert depth, but in keeping with our commitment to customer satisfaction and to keep installation simple, we can manufacture matrix units to specifically meet site requirements. Integral pumped discharges can also be provided with all units, eliminating the need for additional tankage and installation costs.
All Matrix systems are complete with failure alarms as standard (as required by BSEN12566-3) and are not, as with some other companies in this industry which will usually set you back on average over £100.
The MATRIX treatment system is a three stage biological process contained within a single tank structure, based on the principles of a submerged bed reactor and designed in accordance with the requirements of BS6297. Careful configuration of the internal flowpath and the inclusion of non-mechanical recirculation systems ensures optimal process performance as demonstrated by the exceptional results obtained from the independent testing, providing complete peace of mind. There are NO electrical or mechanical components within the Matrix treatment plant thereby eliminating the need for any specialist servicing arrangements ensuring that any maintenance requirements on the MATRIX system are kept to an absolute minimum.
Benfits Of The Matrix Sewage Treatment Plant
  • Free nationwide site surveys and technical proposal with no obligation.
  • Full technical back up and customer service support.
  • Nationwide network of service engineers.

Graf Platin Rainwater Harvesters

The Platin flat rainwater tank was specially developed by Graf for rainwater harvesting. It is available in sizes of between 1500 and 7500 litres. It features a minimum installation depth which translates into a short installation time and low installation costs.

Minimum installation depth means a short installation time and low installation costs
The size of the rainwater tank explains why. The 1500 l tank measures just 210 x 120 cm the height to the tank shoulder is just 70 cm. The low tank height allows it to be installed without slope angles and therefore in a very small pit. Since the tank weighs in at just 80 kg, it’s easy for two people to complete installation in a morning.
Suitable for vehicle loading
When combined with a corresponding tank cover, the tank is suitable for vehicle loading. The Platin tank can therefore also be installed under your driveway.
Groundwater-stable
The design of the Platin flat tank guarantees high stability. The flat tank can therefore be installed in groundwater up to the tank shoulder.

 Key Points
  • Minimum installation depth means a short installation time and low installation costs
  • Integrated filter technology thanks to tank filter packages
  • Can be driven over by cars (when combined with a cast telescope)
  • Groundwater-stable up to the tank shoulder thanks to extremely stable design
  • Easy to transport thanks to low weight
  • Secure investment thanks to 15-year warranty
  • The Platin rainwater tank can be extended in any way

WPL Diamond Sewage Treatment Plant

There are several key reasons to choose a Diamond wastewater solution for your development:
  • Minimal maintenance, low running cost - unlike other sewage treatment plants on the market, the Diamond’s unique design has no internal moving parts.  This means that it requires minimal annual maintenance, making it economical to run.
  • Kind to the environment – the Diamond’s treatment process requires no chemicals, so it’s kind to the environment.
  • Minimal visual impact – the Diamond’s tank is buried entirely underground, so it has minimal visual impact.
  • No smells – most other treatment plants have primary tanks which store settled solids and can emit odours.  The Diamond has no primary tank and is therefore odour-free.
  • Long emptying cycle – the Diamond’s continuous bacterial digestion treats wastewater to a standard that meets all normal Environment Agency consents.  This treatment process can achieve a de-sludge (emptying) period of up to three years – much longer than that of most other plants.
  • CE marked and Irish agrement certified
  • Over 40,000 Diamonds units installed world wide
  • Reduced soakaway
Process Performance Guaranteed
The Diamond treats wastewater to a 95 percentile standard of:
• 20mg/l Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD)
• 30mg/l Suspended Solids (SS)
• 20mg/l Ammoniacal Nitrogen (AMM-N)
Installation;
The Diamond sits below ground and is straightforward to install – often without the need for concrete backfill.  A comprehensive installation manual is supplied with each plant, which you should read thoroughly prior to installation.
The plant is supplied with an air blower, together with an alarm and an enclosure to protect it from the weather.  This comes with 10 metres of airline to connect the blower to the tank.  The Diamond can accommodate longer airlines – up to 30 metres
The WPL Diamond range meets the following industry standards:
• CE marked, fully type tested and certificated in accordance with the mandatory European standard BS EN12566-3, and meets all current legislation under the Environmental Permitting Programme
• Fully compliant with UK Building Regulations and Environment Agency recommendations
• The Diamond is designed using the British Water Code of Practice Flows and Loads, to ensure correct sized tanks
• LABC approved, which means it has been assessed against Building Regulation requirements and can be installed without the need to have it signed off again by building control

The Karis May Darling Foundation

At Septic Tank Supplies we believe in looking after charities and have supplied a Conder 3,000 litre Millennium septic tank as low as we could to the Karis May Darling Foundation which are building a community centre.

The Karis May Darling Foundation

Karis May DarlingThe Foundation came in to being through the family and friends of Karis May Darling. We have many goals and aims, we exist from kind donations and direct fundraising through various events and challenges around the UK. The money we raise goes towards providing equipment and opportunity for children and youth.
We principally set out to help underprivileged children achieve their aspirations through performing arts and sport. We also like to raise awareness of Organ donation and the benefits this can bring.
The foundation takes its inspiration from Karis and the character and kind human being she was, it’s through her acts of giving and caring that we continue to support children in the way in which her integrity allowed.
Karis was always helping and giving in life, she would light up a room with her personality. She saved 5 lives with her organs and would have been so proud others can aspire because of her, the foundation provide facility for the caring and help Karis gave in life is never forgotten.
We are not a national charity our volunteers help to keep the charity sustainable and every penny we raise goes towards our foundation supporting children and young adults. Our strength is in the local and wider community with many events being held and more and more opportunity for children and youth to aspire through our foundation, we believe that the best way to get something done is to begin.
