Klargester Domestic Sewage Treatment Plant installed to replace leaking Cesspool
Owners of a residential dwelling in the tranquil Isle of Sheppey reached out for our help as their current concrete cesspool was no longer fit for use due to being undersized and resulted in ongoing leaks.
The Klargester team were contacted by a local installer, Kent Wastewater to arrange a free site visit to review and establish the best drainage system to serve the property.
Our Area Sales Manager, Will Hadler visited the property in Spring 2022 to carry out an in-depth site assessment to ensure the correct sized sewage treatment plant was installed for the property. Will was on hand to offer advice to the properties owners and provided full guidance from start to finish of the process.
To begin with, Will performed a percolation test which determines the rate of water absorption into the ground. The procedure measures how long it takes a measured amount of water to drain away from a saturated hole dug into the ground. The result of the test determines the suitability of the soil for an underground tank and ensures the ground has sufficient drainage capacity to handle the amount of water that will come from the drainage field.
For this site, due to a high-water table we recommended our Klargester domestic sewage treatment plant. Fully compliant with EN 12566-3, the Klargester domestic sewage treatment plant employs unique (patent pending) aerobic trickling process technology to filter and treat the sewage, which is fully compliant with environmental regulations.
Benefitting from easy installation and low-level visibility the sewage treatment plant offers homeowners the added benefit of limited garden destruction. With improved effluent quality and affordable lifetime running costs, this product offers peace of mind to families and homeowners across the UK.
Our Klargester sewage treatment plants have been designed to cater to homes without access to mains drainage for over 70 years. Available in a variety of models and specifications to suit domestic properties, our sewage treatment plants are available to suit all types of domestic applications, catering for single and multi-house properties.
