Sewage Systems - Get it Right
First Time
A failing sewage system can really put a smell
up your nose and what’s the point of having a
million dollar house if the smell puts the damper
on your barbecue? Council tests show over 65 per cent of sewage
systems perform no better than a filtered septic
tank and the cheaper systems are producing the
worst results.
These results are sent to the manufacturers
of the systems involved and yet plumbers and
system agents will still try to sell you ‘their’ system
regardless of whether it is actually works
properly, or is even suitable for your site. Some systems cost over $40 a month to run
while others cost only $3 a month.
A cost analysis shows that the cheaper systems
can cost $30,000 more to maintain (over 25 years)
than other more advanced systems, something
agents of the cheaper systems forget to tell you. Sewage treatment systems range between
$14,000 and $20,000 to install so a thorough site
assessment and system options report is essential
to know the system you choose will stand the
test of time and represent good value for money.
With over 35 years experience in engineering
design and wastewater systems Dave is the most
qualified person to evaluate soil conditions (soil
mechanics) and advise on what system is best for
your property. Dave is also in demand to upgrade existing
septic tank systems and his knowledge and
none.
He can meet you on site and investigate, and
cost out, the full range of sewage systems options
available for your site.
Then he can prepare a full engineering design
and specification to meet Council requirements
for the option selected.
By using Dave’s independent design services
you are guaranteed the best available system at
the lowest possible cost.
