Affordable Wastewater Treatment for your home

Residents living in rural villages have raised concerns over a ‘significant’ increase in their sewage bills. A number of ex–council homes across the Test Valley area are not connected to mains drainage, meaning their wastewater is collected in a private sewage treatment plant which is managed by the housing association Aster.

Bills have more than trebled in recent years with residents stating their sewage bills have gone from £59 a month to £288 per month. This is due to the increase of how frequent the tank needs emptied. It is reported tankers are being sent from Kent weekly to remove the waste from the treatment plant as otherwise it has been leaking into the neighbouring ditch. The additional resources of tankering companies have unfortunately resulted in residents paying more than 3 times their usual costs to be on this shared system.

With a lack of maintenance, it is evident the current treatment plant is non-compliant and is polluting the environment in the Test Valley area. Maintenance has been minimum, and nothing has been done to extend the systems life span. With no money set aside to renew any of the treatment plants, a cost-of-living crisis, increased electricity, heating and now sewage bills, residents are now seeking alternative solutions for their individual properties.

At Klargester we have been delivering our range of sewage treatment plants for over 70 years to homes across the UK and Ireland. We pride ourselves on delivering fully compliant, cost-efficient wastewater solutions to off-mains rural properties. With a network of local accredited installers, we can also keep costs low on install and maintenance.

Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) are extremely effective at managing wastewater from your home. A STP provides an environment where aerobic bacteria are cultured and helps treat the breakdown of sewage.  This is a highly effective and efficient process, removing up to 95 percent of the pollutants within the wastewater before it is discharged.
