Septic topas or tank

Many owners of country cottages, summer houses, private houses, having decided to install an autonomous sewage system on their land, are trying painfully to choose the best septic tank, comparing numerous models.

As you know, septic tanks can be volatile and non-volatile. And in this article we will compare two septic tanks that are especially popular among buyers, one of which belongs to the first group of septic tanks, and the other to the second. These are the Topas and Tank septic tanks.

Tank

The septic tank is completely suitable for creating autonomous sewage of non-volatile type. It is a plastic container with sufficiently thick walls that are resistant to the pressure of the soil. It is possible to interconnect several tanks, which gives greater performance, a higher degree of wastewater treatment.

Capacity divided into three sections. In the first sedimentation tank, large enough fractions settle to the bottom and primary wastewater treatment takes place. Then the drains flow into the second settling tank, where secondary settling occurs. Then the treated effluents enter the biofilter, are finally cleaned and discharged.

At the request of a septic tank, the tank can be additionally equipped with infiltrators, which are installed in one or several copies and increase the quality of cleaning up to 98%.

The range of septic tanks allows you to serve up to 9 people. Moreover, in the case of choosing any model, additional tanks can be installed.

Users are attracted by:

• Convenient block-modular design that allows you to customize the septic tank to the needs of a particular household.
• High degree of sewage treatment, which in the case of multiple infiltrates can reach 98%.
• Full non-volatility. This is an advantage not only in terms of saving money on electricity, but also in the case of frequent power outages, which is not uncommon in rural areas, for example.
• Reliability and durability of a septic tank.
• Pumping no more than once a year.
• Affordable price.
• No need to fix the septic tank. If properly installed, it will not pop up. This is possible with unprofessional installation in the conditions of closely spaced groundwater or emptying the septic tank for the winter.

Many of the drawbacks of the septic tank, as in the case of complaints about the ascent of the septic tank, are due to improper installation or maintenance. This, for example, concerns the appearance of an unpleasant smell. The occurrence of this drawback is due to the absence of a vent pipe stack or the discharge of drains containing large amounts of chlorine, as well as other cleaning or cleaning agents. As a result, the bacteria responsible for processing wastewater are killed, hence the appearance of an unpleasant odor. To optimize the operation of the septic tank, it is advisable to use bioactivators.

Topaz

This is a biological treatment station that shares mechanical, chemical, and biological methods of wastewater treatment.

Falling into the first chamber, the drains settle, a precipitate falls. Then, with the help of airlift, the separated water enters the second compartment - the aeration tank. Here there is a further process of purification of waste with the help of aerobic bacteria, active sludge works. The third chamber is a sump-pyramid, where purified water with sludge flows. Here, the silt is precipitated, and water flows further. At the outlet, the drains pass through the outlet filter.

The range of septic tanks of Topap provides a possibility of service from one to 150 people. Some models may have a reinforced structure or be equipped with forced removal of purified water.

Such advantages are noted:

• Compactness.
• Noiselessness
• No unpleasant smell.
• The speed of wastewater treatment and its effectiveness. Drains are cleaned to the state of process water.
• Moderate power consumption.

Disadvantages:

• Il has a "life", it must be changed. If the pumping is not timely, the sludge thickens and is difficult to remove.
• Dependence on electricity, in the event of a long power outage sewage can not be used.
• It is necessary to service every three months.
• Possible incorrect operation of some elements, for example, a float sensor.

There may be troubles associated with improper operation, installation, calculations. For example, when acquiring a septic tank with a lower capacity than needed, or if the volume of the maximum salvo discharge is exceeded, it may be confronted with the flooding of the septic tank. In the absence of control over the composition of wastewaters, death of bacteria, the occurrence of blockages in the system, damage to the hoses of air pumps is possible.

Having considered the principles of work, advantages and disadvantages of septic tanks Tank and Topas, it should be concluded that the choice in favor of one or the other option will depend on what advantages and disadvantages will be in your case the most significant.
