Very happy with the outcome of my aeration unit since its installation (by myself). Extends the time period between sludge layer pumping by 2 years (at a $250.00 USD savings). This guy's commentary is unqualified as I highly doubt that he himself has installed such a unit in used one at his residence. Plus, he speaks from his own paradigm and country of origin's regulations and permitting requirements and cannot speak of those of the remainder of the civilized world. In the US, the system works great. It's no great wonder that the posted link results are: Oops! That page can’t be found. A shyte salesman.
pretty incredible false statements here! 😂 an aerator is usually installed in a second chamber of tank. it doesnt "blow the poo around and this and that" as you say. it provides oxygen for aerobic microbes to eat the waste. they can work much faster than anaerobic microbes in the first chamber / traditional septic. then usually a third chamber / tank is used to hold the effluent from the aerobic / aerated tank and dosed with a bit of chlorine. in a well-running system the effluent from the third tank is greywater fit for surface irrigation of grass. your £4k "ecosystem" box is the real scam here. aerating a single chamber anaerobic septic is not great. it doesnt always work well. but aerating the second chamber in a two-chamber tank, or installing a second aerated tank to accept effluent from the first old one, is a well-tested practice. if your local area doesnt allow it, get an engineer to school the local officials.
Hi, firstly thank you - really informative video. A quick question. Should anaerobic bacteria be added to the septic tank - especially the first chamber?
These were not what I expected them to be. It states 0 to 90 degrees bend, but you would assume that to be in a straight line just like a fixed bend. No, let’s say you adjust one end to be at 10 degrees, it is 10 degrees vertically, but horizontally it’s moved let’s say 5 degrees to the left or right.
Hi thanks Jason from a fellow Jason. Interesting video. I’m soon to negotiate some land off my late parents estate and I’ll be looking into being more self sufficient on this land that is in a rural location. The property currently has a septic tank but may need updating before house sale, or negotiating in house sale price. The land where I live in the Low Weald of Kent has a very high water table in Winter, to the point it breaks the surface Would it be worth a concrete base, then a strapped down bullet type tank, with shingle back fill?
