If you decide to build a bathhouse, then it is important to think about making a septic tank - it is a necessity, because there will be a lot of wastewater in the bathhouse. In this article we will learn how to make a septic tank for a bathhouse with your own hands.

For proper arrangement septic tank in the bathhouse, taking into account the type of soil and location groundwater you can use two methods:

• Storage drive installation. With this option, a large container is installed that will collect all the drainage from the bathhouse. As soon as the container is filled, it must be cleaned by calling a sewer truck. The advantage of such a septic tank is the simplicity of its design. You need to purchase a ready-made plastic container the right size and install it in the pit. As for the disadvantages, it is problematic in maintenance. If you use the bathhouse regularly, you will have to call a sewer truck regularly, which is not a cheap pleasure. Moreover, the installation of a septic tank in this case must be carried out in such a way that there is free access to it, which can be problematic.
• Another method of arranging a septic tank for a bathhouse is to make a structure from which there will be no need to pump out wastewater. For this purpose, filtration wells are made or ground filtration is organized.

At the very beginning, all the dirty work needs to be done. It is important to consider the following nuances:

• The depth of the septic tank must be sufficient so that when it is used in winter time he didn't freeze.
• Cover the bottom of the first chamber with sand and place a layer of clay up to 200 mm. Then it can be concreted.
• The second chamber is constructed with a drainage pad. To do this, pour a layer of 400 mm of crushed stone onto the bottom.

In order to slightly, but reduce the amount of land work, it is possible to provide insulation of the septic tank chambers and pipes. As a result, the depth of the hole will be slightly reduced.

If you purchased ready-made concrete rings, the work process is significantly accelerated:

• Lifting equipment is usually used to install reinforced concrete rings. It will be very difficult to install them yourself, although in some cases this is only the only option, for example, when special equipment cannot drive up to the construction site of the septic tank.
• It is recommended to connect each ring to each other. The joints are sealed with mortar, which increases the tightness of the structure.
• An important and difficult step will be the installation of a pipe that will connect several chambers into one. It is important here to implement correct connection. So, the pipe with incoming waste should be as high as possible. The next pipe with an overflow into the next chamber below and so on.

You can buy reinforced concrete rings with ready-made holes. Designs with a finished bottom are also available for sale. This will save you from having to pour a concrete pad in the hole. Rings with holes are sold for the drainage chamber.

Backfilling the septic tank

When all the rings are installed, all that remains is to make finishing touch. It is recommended to use clay to fill the rings from the outside. In case of leakage, the clay will serve as an additional sealing layer. Although some are covered with earth raised from the pit. It is important to compact the soil or clay thoroughly. This will create good strength of the entire structure, and the earth will not settle much after a while.

Following these simple tips, you can make a septic tank for a bathhouse with your own hands. Now let's look at another technology that involves the use of tires.

Septic tank made from tires

One of the economical methods of arranging a septic tank for a bathhouse is to use car tires. To do this, you need to use the tires of a large car or even a tractor. The design of a septic tank made from car tires can also have two or three chambers. The number of cameras depends on the availability of a toilet in the bathhouse. So, the process of manufacturing such a structure is carried out in the following sequence:

1. First of all, pits are dug. The width depends on the diameter of the tires used. In this case, the width of the pit should be 150 mm wider so that you do not have any problems during installation. As for the depth, it should be below the freezing level of the soil.
2. Next, with inside trim the edges of the tires. This is important so that during operation of the septic tank it does not become clogged. The cut will be easy to make using a chainsaw or jigsaw.
3. When all the tires are trimmed on the inside, they need to be laid out on top of each other in the pit.
4. Now it’s time to install a pipe to drain the wastewater from the bathhouse, as well as to overflow into the second chamber. It should be installed at the appropriate angle. To insert the pipe into the tire, you must also make an additional cut.
5. In the first chamber, the bottom is constructed using concreting or clay. The bottom of the second chamber is filled with coarse crushed stone.
6. When the tires are installed, the space between the pit is filled with sand or fine crushed stone. You can also use clay, as in the case of reinforced concrete rings.

When making a well from car tires, it is important to build a reliable lid that will prevent it from falling inside.

This method is quite simple. The most difficult thing is to carry out excavation work by digging two holes. Such a septic tank can be made in a few days.

PVC cubes for septic tank

Another simple option for arranging a well for a bathhouse is the use of PVC cubes (also called Euro-containers). Although they are very expensive, their installation is very simple and quick.

To save money, you can buy used containers from transport companies who use them to transport various liquids.

Installation of PVC cubes is carried out as follows:

1. Cut off the neck of the container and install a tee in this place. The joint is treated with a special sealant for plastic.
2. You also make a second hole at the end of the container, 25 cm away from the top. The installation will be installed in this hole. plastic pipe, coming from the bathhouse. The same holes are made to connect containers to each other if you are making two-chamber septic tank. It is important to take into account the height difference at which the pipes will be installed.
3. Plus, you make another hole on top of the container to organize ventilation.
4. This entire structure can be made on the surface, and then, after digging a hole, carefully lower it.
5. It is recommended to reinforce the bottom of the pit with a screed using iron reinforcement. This also applies to external walls. A frame is also made and everything is filled with concrete right up to the neck.

Although the resulting design of a septic tank for a bathhouse turns out to be very expensive, it will serve you for decades.

If you have a relatively small bathhouse on summer cottage or in the garden, then it makes no sense to equip the above-described septic tanks. You can use metal barrels. In this case, the work will look like this:

• As in all cases, you dig a hole, with a margin of 150 mm in width. At the bottom you also make a cushion of crushed stone, 100 mm thick.
• Stepping back 200 mm from the top of the barrel, make a hole for the drain pipe.
• To prevent the barrel from warping during operation, stick reinforcement into the ground on four sides. They will hold the barrel during its installation.
• As in other cases, fill the gap between the barrel and the pit and prime it with sand, clay or earth.
• Make a cover with a protrusion 100 mm from the ground.
• When installing such a septic tank, cut out the bottom of the barrel. The water will gradually be absorbed into the ground itself.

This method is only valid for Not large sauna where a bathroom will not be installed.

So, in this article we looked at options on how to make a septic tank for a bathhouse with your own hands. Some methods are very simple, so even without experience in this field big problems you won't have it. We will be interested to know about your experience in arranging a septic tank for a bathhouse. Leave feedback and comments at the end of this article.

Proper installation of sewerage is the key to convenient and comfortable operation of the bathhouse. After all, you can truly enjoy the cleansing of your soul and body only if the washing process is not overshadowed by extraneous irritants - unpleasant odors, water collecting on the floor and dirt in the room. Read our material on how to properly arrange a sewer system for a bathhouse. In this article we will talk in detail about general structure sewerage in the bathhouse, organization of water drainage, drainage, installation of a septic tank and other options.

Sewage system for a bathhouse

About the device sewer system It is important to think about bathhouses even at the stage of laying the foundation, then the type of sewer system will be selected correctly, and all work will be completed with the highest quality and in a timely manner. Before arranging a sewer system for a bathhouse, you need to carefully study some points in order to choose the right type of drainage system:

• maximum number of visitors (this determines which type of sewerage system is suitable for specific bath and what tank volume to choose);
• seasonal use of the bathhouse - winter, summer or all year round;
• joint sewerage for the entire site or arrangement of a separate wastewater system for the bathhouse;
• availability of a toilet in the bathhouse building;
• soil type;
• soil freezing;
• groundwater level.

After studying all the features of the site and making the necessary calculations, you can think about what type of sewer system is suitable for your bathhouse - a simple drain structure, a waste (drain) pit, drainage system or a large and complex septic tank.

Important. Regardless of what type of sewer system you choose, a well-thought-out scheme for recycling used water helps solve most of the problems. Make sure that all drains leading from the steam room and shower are installed before laying the floors.

How to drain a bathhouse

If you are planning to build a seasonal bathhouse without a toilet, then the best option is the simplest one drainage system(drain), which involves laying waste pipes with a slope towards the storage tank. To do this, place a bathhouse at some distance from the bathhouse building (optimally 2-3 m). storage capacity and lead the waste pipe to it. As storage tank Any reliable container can serve - a can, a bath, a barrel made of plastic or metal, the main thing is that it has a suitable volume. After settling in a container, the water can be used for watering flower beds and beds or for household work.

Important: you can calculate the volume of the storage tank if you consider that washing two people requires about 30 liters of water. Thus, if the bathhouse is designed for 4-6 visitors, you need to select a tank with a volume of at least 100 liters.

Drain pit

Another option is a regular drainage pit, but such a sewer can be installed in those areas where the groundwater in the area lies quite deep. Otherwise, the drainage pit will fill with underground water and there will be little space left for water from the bathhouse.

How to make a drain hole correctly

Calculate the volume of water that will be consumed per wash, and dig a pit at a distance of three to four meters from the building, the dimensions of which will correspond to the approximate volume of wastewater. A drainage pit for a small bathhouse is usually made with a height, width and depth of 1 meter.

If the soil is sandy, then the sides of the pit must be strengthened, otherwise the earth will settle, crumble and damage the structure. The walls are reinforced with boards or slate, lined with bricks or concrete rings are installed, and in some cases tires are used. You can even fill it with cement, having first made the formwork. Loam and sandstone do not need to be strengthened - water will easily seep into the soil through the walls and bottom of the pit.

Drainage sewer system

Usually the bathhouse is on personal plot built for a limited number of people, not exceeding 6-8 people. Therefore, most suitable option for your own bathhouse you will have the simplest drainage system.

To begin, select on the site convenient place near the bathhouse for a drainage well. The depth of the well is calculated depending on the freezing of the soil in winter period. If the ground freezes to 70 cm, then the well must have a depth of at least 1.5 m.

A drainage well is made according to the principle of constructing a drainage pit - they dig a hole of the required size and lay sewage pipes to it. The main difference is filling the well with drainage, which is used as gravel, expanded clay, crushed stone or broken brick. So, the procedure for constructing a drainage well:

• Place a 10 cm layer of clay at the bottom of the hole.
• Cover the trench that will be used as a drain with the same 10 cm layer of clay and give it the shape of a gutter. If you provide a slight slope to the side when digging a trench sewer pit, the water will flow down the gutter without stopping or accumulating in one place.
• Lay out 0.5 m of drainage (expanded clay, crushed stone or gravel mixed with sand) on a carefully processed clay cushion, then carefully sprinkle it with a layer of earth and compact it thoroughly.
• It is advisable to insulate the drain pipe laid from the bathhouse to the pit well so that the water does not freeze in winter.

If a mixture of gravel and sand was used as drainage, you need to remember that it quickly becomes dirty and will need to be cleaned periodically.

Septic tank for a bath

For a large bathhouse with a toilet and a rest room, a simple drainage pit will clearly not be enough, so a good owner needs to install a reliable sewer system - a complex and high-quality septic tank for a bathhouse. If funds allow, then you can buy a septic tank - there are modern installations of any size and level of complexity. But even the most complex treatment plant can be built with my own hands, so usually site owners prefer to install septic tanks themselves.

Eurocubes for septic tank

For device homemade septic tanks Eurocubes are often used - plastic containers with a volume of one thousand liters.

Eurocube is a tank with a rigid steel lathing, designed for the transportation and storage of bulk and liquid cargo. Eurocubes are made from polyurethane, plastic, wood, high-carbon steel and aluminum. In the upper part, the container is equipped with a neck with a polyethylene lid and a sealing ring, and in the lower part there is a drain valve with a valve and a seal.

In order for the Eurocube to perform its functions efficiently, it must be prepared:

1. A tee is installed in the neck located in the upper part of the cube.
2. At the end of the tank, at a distance of 25 cm from the top edge of the tank, make a hole for the inlet supply pipe.
3. A hole is cut in the upper horizontal part for ventilation pipe, which is then connected to the tee.
4. If two tanks are installed, they must be connected. To do this, make a hole for connecting pipes. In the first container, a hole is cut 20 cm below the supply pipe. The second tank is located below the first.
5. After preparation, the containers are connected to each other with pipes and secured with fittings.
6. In the second tank, 30 cm below the top edge, a hole is made for the outlet pipe.

Important: if the neck is too narrow and you cannot insert a tee into it, you can make a cut around it. After installing the tee, seal it securely.

Carefully lubricate all connections of the structure with sealant, and then begin preparing the pit.

First of all, you need to correctly calculate the size of the hole. The pit should be such that there is about 15 cm between its walls and the walls of the container free space, and at the bottom there was a concrete slab 15 cm high. The Eurocubes will stand firmly and reliably if the walls and bottom of the pit are concreted.

Installation of tanks

After the concrete in the pit has dried, tanks are installed and filled with water. The gap between the tanks is concreted so that when the soil moves, the structure does not collapse. Upper part The septic tank must be insulated by laying foam sheets on top. Then fill the tanks with soil, leaving only the ventilation pipes on the surface.

Installing a septic tank has its advantages and disadvantages. Among the main advantages is the ability to collect in a storage container large number water, lack unpleasant odors and cleanliness of the area. The disadvantages of a septic tank include:

The need to equip the installation on the lowest part of the dacha to ensure natural flow of water into the tanks;

Organization of free passage of the sewage disposal truck to the site and directly to the sump;

The need to regularly order the services of vacuum cleaners, which creates an additional expense item in the family budget.

How to connect a bathhouse to the central sewer line

The presence of an autonomous or centralized sewer system can facilitate efforts to arrange sewerage. By connecting drain pipes directly to ready-made system, the owner gets rid of the problem of arranging a sewage system.

If the site is located next to the central sewer line, it is quite possible to connect to it. To do this, you need to write an application to the appropriate department, fill out a package permitting documents and do some things:

1. Draw up an agreement for installation and excavation work with a design organization that carries out its activities in full compliance with the law and has all the necessary certificates.
2. If work will be carried out next to residential buildings, obtain written consent from neighbors to hold the event.
3. Install a special inspection well designed to monitor the sewer system and check sewer pipes.

Only after all measures have been completed can permission be obtained to connect the bathhouse sewer system to the central main line.

As a rule, owners small baths they try to arrange the sewage system themselves, since the volume is small waste water from the bathhouse makes all the time and effort spent on visiting institutions and drawing up contracts impractical. Building a high-quality sewer system with your own hands will cost an order of magnitude less and will not require much time.

Good day. Thank you for visiting the created topic. I hope you can advise.

SITUATION:
1. The goal is to make a sewer system for a bathhouse under construction.
2. The bathhouse will have the following sewerage points: a shower in the washroom, a toilet (toilet) in the washroom, a floor drain in the washroom (there will be a small barrel-font), a floor drain in the steam room (the steam room will have a washing function with basins) .
3. The bathhouse is one-story, small (40 sq. m.), frequency of use is once every 1-2 weeks. 1-3 people will go to the bathhouse, no more.
4. The site is extreme in the SNT, relatively close to the edge of the site (8-10 m) there is a small shallow (depth less than 1 m) river.
5. The water level is high (when they dug holes for the piles for the foundation of the bathhouse, there was already water at a depth of 1 m). The soil is water-saturated sand and loam, gravel.
6. The foundation strip (and the floor of the bathhouse, respectively) is raised above the ground by 45 cm.
7. Sometimes it floods a little (the river doesn’t seem to overflow its banks, it’s just melting snow, the area is at the bottom of the slope).
8. The site is located on a sharp slope; no car will ever approach the bathhouse or the planned location for installing the septic tank. I plan to clean it once a year and invite a Tajik.

Attached is a proposed bathhouse sewer system with a 1-chamber septic tank consisting of 2 concrete rings without a bottom, with further discharge of liquid into a small filtration field.

QUESTIONS:
1. CRITICISM OF THE PROPOSED SCHEME IS VERY NEEDED. PLEASE REPLY WITHIN 1-2 DAYS, BECAUSE I AM LEAVING AND I NEED TO URGENTLY APPROVAL THE SCHEME FOR THE FOREIGNER SO THAT HE FURTHER LOOKS FOR A CONTRACTOR.
2. WHAT I ASK YOU TO PAY ATTENTION TO IN YOUR COMMENTS:
2.1. For the outlet from the washing room (toilet, shower, floor drain) I plan to use a pipe with a diameter of 110, for the outlet from the steam room a pipe with a diameter of 40, and the main pipe to the septic tank with a diameter of 110. Is that normal?
2.2. Which pipe would be optimal to choose (material, if possible, manufacturer)? I read that polypropylene seems to be better than PVC. Optimal in my understanding - it will work for a long time, without hemorrhoids, and you won’t overpay for unnecessary qualities.
2.3. The pipe will exit the bathhouse at a depth of 0.5 m, the pipe will enter the septic tank at a depth of 0.7 m, and in the filtration field it will arrive at a depth of 0.8 m. Is this normal?
2.4. Is it necessary to insulate the pipe? What is the best way to do this if necessary?
2.5. Should the pipes be laid and buried simply in the ground or should they be surrounded with crushed stone?
2.6. The septic tank ring will be 15 cm above ground level. Is it normal or higher?
2.7. I have provided ventilation pipes - one into the septic tank itself and the second I want to cut into a leaky pipe in the filtration field. Normal? Shouldn't there be a smell in the gazebo planned nearby?
2.8. The dimensions of the filtration field are 2 m by 1 m. The pipe goes up to the filtration field without holes, but in the filtration field there will be holes. Normal?
2.9. What should be the design (layering of materials with thicknesses) in the filtration field? To prevent the holes from being clogged with high water, use geotextiles on top of the pipe.
2.10. It is normal to seal the joints of the rings with the following composition: 1 part cement, 1 part sand, 0.7 parts water, 0.7 parts liquid glass, then how will the mastic dry?
2.11. It is better to cover the rings with mastic or stick on waterproofing with blowtorch? Is it better from inside or outside?

I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU HELP WITH ADVICE AND EXPERIENCE. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO CARE. THE WORLD IS NOT WITHOUT GOOD PEOPLE.

Many owners country houses Are you wondering whether it is necessary to install a septic tank under the bathhouse? The answer is definitely necessary. This facility will allow for wastewater recycling and treatment. A septic tank is especially needed for a bathhouse with a toilet, because such wastewater requires high-quality, effective cleaning and processing. Without this treatment plant the bathhouse will not be able to function properly. If you do not use a septic tank, but a sewer well, then you will have to pump it out too often. In our article we will tell you how to properly install a septic tank under a bathhouse. And the video at the end of the article will help you understand the process more clearly.

Before thinking through the design of the future septic tank, you need to decide whether there will be a toilet in the bathhouse or not. The thing is that wastewater from regular bath without a bathroom they are liquid and almost clean, so in this case there is no need to make a complex structure.

The design of septic tanks for a bathhouse with and without a toilet is somewhat different:

1. In a garbage disposal facility without a toilet does not need to be provided in a septic tank special system filtration. In this case, it is enough to equip a well of concrete rings without a bottom on a layer of gravel and crushed stone, and the wastewater will filter into the soil itself.
2. Septic tank under a bathhouse with a toilet must be made in the form of a multi-chamber structure. The first sealed settling chamber is needed to collect feces, and the following compartments perform filtering functions.

The advantages of constructing septic tanks for homes and bathhouses from rings without a bottom include simplicity of design and speed of installation, the ability to save on materials, and the absence of the need for frequent cleaning. However, such a septic tank under the bathhouse does not guarantee high quality wastewater treatment.

It’s worth knowing: septic tanks for homes and baths can be single-chamber or multi-chamber.

If you decide to make a septic tank for a bathhouse, then the choice of material for it depends on the groundwater level. A septic tank can be installed using the following types of materials:

• Metal barrels without a bottom cannot be used in areas standing tall groundwater. It is better to choose this septic tank material for sandy soils.
• Plastic barrels with holes for filtration. This option is also not suitable for high GWL (groundwater level). They can only be installed on sandstone.
• You can make a simple septic tank from concrete rings.
• Some types of septic tanks are made of monolithic reinforced concrete.
• A small sump can be built from car tires.
• Sometimes one or more PVC cubes are used to equip a treatment plant.

Important: the dimensions and depth of the septic tank for a house or bathhouse are selected individually. If the septic tank is not intended for use drain pump to pump wastewater into the general sewer system, it is necessary to provide a place for the access of a sewage disposal truck.

Choosing a site for construction

If you decide to build a septic tank for a bathhouse with your own hands, then you should pay attention special attention choosing a place for its installation. When choosing it, adhere to the following rules:

1. To facilitate connection to the sewer system, it is better to locate the septic tank close to the house.
2. From water sources located on the site, the treatment plant should be located at a distance of 20-25 m.
3. The septic tank should be located at a distance of 10-15 m from the residential building.
4. If the groundwater level on the site is high, then the choice of location should be approached with special care.
5. The septic tank under the bathhouse must be located in such a place that it can be easily accessed by vacuum cleaners.
6. The pipe leading from the bathhouse to the septic tank should not be connected to it at an angle of more than 120 degrees. Otherwise, problems may arise with connecting and laying the pipeline.

On clay soils and in areas with high level When groundwater is standing, filtration of wastewater from the bathhouse into the soil is impossible. In this case, other types of lead must be used. Suitable for these purposes storm drain or a body of water. You can also build a drainage ditch in the form of a tray with a concrete bottom. On sandy soils, it is advisable to install a filtration absorption well, because this type of soil quickly absorbs large volumes of water.

Treatment plant without pumping

A septic tank for a bathhouse without pumping can be used if you regularly use this structure (without a toilet), but you do not want to pump out wastewater frequently. In this case, water from the disposal facility will be drained into reservoirs, drains or other suitable places. It can also be collected in filtration wells, from where it will be filtered into the soil.

There are many options independent device such a treatment plant. In addition to them, you can use ready-made treatment plants. However, their price is rather high. Such designs are designed for different volume drains.

Operating principle

As you already understand, to obtain better cleaning of wastewater from a bathhouse with a toilet, it is better to make not one settling tank, but several filtration compartments. In each of them, the wastewater undergoes multi-stage purification, and at the output you will receive completely harmless purified water, which can be used for technical needs and watering the garden.

As a rule, to install a septic tank under a bathhouse with a toilet, a two-chamber design is required. In this case, both chambers are connected to each other by an overflow. The operating principle of such a structure is as follows:

1. The drainage from the bathhouse enters the first compartment of the structure through a pipeline. Here, the heavier and denser components of the wastewater settle to the bottom.
2. In addition, wastewater in the first chamber, where there is no oxygen, undergoes primary purification by anaerobic bacteria. These microorganisms live in conditions without access to oxygen, so such a chamber is a favorable habitat for them.
3. When the level of liquid waste in the first compartment reaches the overflow location mark, the water flows by gravity into the second compartment.
4. If the design of the second chamber does not provide a bottom, then the treated wastewater is filtered through a layer of gravel and crushed stone into the soil. If the septic tank under the bathhouse has a bottom in the second chamber, then the wastewater is discharged through a special pipe into a filtration well or ditch.

It is worth noting that during the life of bacteria, wastewater decomposes into gas and water. As a result of the activity of anaerobic organisms, methane gas is formed, the removal of which requires ventilation duct. To populate a septic tank with special microorganisms, ready-made biological products are used.

Treatment facility made of reinforced concrete rings

To properly make a septic tank for a bathhouse from concrete rings, you do not need to dig too deep a pit. When performing work, adhere to the following sequence of actions:

1. Two holes are dug nearby to the size of the concrete rings. For such a small structure, 1-2 products are enough. In this case, the diameter of the pit should be 20 cm larger than the diameter of the ring.
2. After installing the first concrete product, the bottom of the pit is filled with concrete to a height of 100-150 mm.
3. After this, the second ring is installed. To seal the seams between the rings, bitumen or bitumen mastic is used.
4. Now the sewer pipeline is being laid and the structure cover is being installed. In this case, a hole for a hatch must be provided in the lid. The first structure will serve as a settling tank.
5. Now we install the rings in the second pit.
6. We fill its bottom with a layer of crushed stone 150 mm thick.
7. There is no need to waterproof the seams in the second chamber.
8. The chambers are connected to each other via an overflow pipe. It should go at an angle from the first to the second chamber.
9. The second compartment is covered with a lid without a hatch.

Important: a septic tank under a bathhouse without a toilet can be made from one chamber, consisting of two concrete rings and a bottom covered with crushed stone.

Tire construction

It is very simple and inexpensive to make a septic tank for a bathhouse with your own hands from car tires. It can also be single-chamber or double-chamber, depending on the presence or absence of a toilet in the bathhouse. Installation is carried out in the following sequence:

1. They dig a pit at least 2 meters deep. Its diameter depends on the dimensions of the tire. It should be 15 cm larger.
2. The tires on the inside are trimmed a little so that after laying several elements on the inside there will not be such relief protrusions.
3. The tires are stacked on top of each other, forming a vertical well.
4. A pipeline with a cross-section of at least 100 mm is laid to the well. At the same time, it must pass below the soil freezing mark and go at a slope from the disposal facility to the well. If a two-chamber design is used, then an overflow pipe is installed between the two wells, running at an angle from the first to the second structure. To install the pipes, holes are cut in the side surface of the tires.
5. The bottom of the first well is concreted. And the bottom of the second structure is covered with rubble.
6. The gaps between the wells and the walls of the pit are filled with a mixture of crushed stone and sand, and then carefully compacted.
7. Wells must be covered with lids made of suitable material.

Septic tank made of PVC cubes

Quite quickly and cheaply you can make a septic tank under a bathhouse from Eurocubes. They are made of iron or PVC. The second option will be cheaper. Installation of cubes is carried out as follows:

1. The neck of the cube is cut to install a tee there. All joints are carefully sealed.
2. A hole is made on one side surface of the cube with a diameter equal to the cross-section of the supply pipe. This hole should be 25 cm from the top of the container.
3. On the top surface there is a hole for installing a ventilation pipe. It is attached to the tee.
4. After this, holes are made in the two-chamber septic tank for overflow. In the first cube it should be 150-200 mm below the hole through which wastewater enters the septic tank. And the hole for the overflow in the second cube should be 200-250 mm below this hole.
5. One pit is being dug for two cubes at once.
6. The bottom of the pit is concreted. Reinforcement outlets are made in it to fix the cubes.
7. For protection plastic containers to prevent floating during a flood, they are placed in reinforcement strapping and fixed to outlets at the bottom of the pit.
8. After insulation with polystyrene foam, the entire structure is filled with concrete up to the level of the neck of the cube.

Video instructions for arranging a septic tank for a disposal facility:

If on suburban area available separately standing sauna, then it is imperative to take care of the removal and disposal of the generated wastewater. Regular cesspool is not entirely suitable for these purposes, especially if such a structure also has a toilet. Only septic tanks for bathhouses can provide high-quality treatment of liquid waste.

Choosing a septic tank for a bath

When purchasing an autonomous sewer system for bath and laundry complexes, showers or saunas, the following factors must be taken into account:

1. The volume of wastewater sent to cleaning device. The septic tank must have sufficient capacity to process all incoming liquid waste. Mini septic tanks with a small capacity are well suited for these purposes.
2. The presence or absence of a toilet in the bathhouse. If there is no toilet, then only gray wastewater will flow from the bathhouse. Then you can install a simple treatment device, after which the wastewater will be sent for additional soil treatment. Sometimes a septic tank is installed for a bathhouse with a toilet; such equipment can perform deep biological treatment. Topas brand equipment is suitable for these purposes.
3. Distance from the main residential building. If the bathhouse is located near the home, then you can install a single septic tank for the bathhouse and the house.
4. Soil quality and groundwater level. The possibility of creating a filter field depends on these indicators. If the site is located on clay soil or quicksand, it may be cheaper to purchase and install a deep cleaning septic tank.

In most cases, to dispose of wastewater from a bathhouse, it is enough to purchase a simple two-chamber septic tank without pumping. Thanks to multi-level system filtration, high-quality cleaning of liquid waste is carried out.
