Diagnosing Issues and Replacing Cesspits
At Proseptic, we’re proud of our extensive experience and knowledge surrounding cesspits. In order to provide the most cost-effective solutions, we assess your property and individual circumstances at a pre-arranged site inspection.
What Is A Cesspit?
A cesspit is a sealed underground tank that collects sewage and wastewater. Unlike a septic tank, it does not process or treat the sewage but merely stores it ready for emptying. Cesspits are usually discreetly buried underground so that they can discreetly collect waste without causing aesthetic disturbance or inconvenience to the household.
Compliant Cesspits
As cesspits store waste for collection they are often seen as a substitute for soakaways when it is unsafe to disperse any water, no matter how well treated, to nearby land.
In order to run compliant sewage treatment, you must have a site survey and an industry expert determine whether you need a cesspit or soakaway.
Cesspits must also be installed adequate distance from your home to comply with legislation. At Proseptic, we are fully up to date with the latest cesspit legislation and can therefore carry out compliant installations.
It is worth remembering that cesspits can only be emptied by professional drainage experts.
