Septic "Mole" - a constructional device and analysis of the advantages of this model

The device of an autonomous sewage system in the country, in a small private house, a country cottage is impossible without a septic tank or a deep biological treatment station. Recent facilities are an expensive pleasure, therefore, for many consumers are still inaccessible. Therefore, more often in practice they install a suitable model of a septic tank, in the sealed container of which sewage is collected and initially cleaned. The Russian company "Aquamaster" has developed a septic tank Mole in several versions. All models of this treatment plant are made of 7-mm sheets of frost-resistant HDPE (low-pressure polyethylene).
The device of the plastic septic tank "Mole"
Aquamaster products are made in the form of oval shaped settling chambers oriented vertically or horizontally. To strengthen the design, the manufacturer provides for the presence of additional 10-centimeter stiffeners.
The minimum volume of produced models is 1.8 cubic meters. meters, and the maximum is twice as large (3.6). Domestic wastewater treatment in this facility is based on methane digestion. The efficiency of purification of contaminated water in plastic septic tanks is 65%.

The device of a single-chamber vertical septic tank "Mole". The mouth of the sump is closed by two covers, one of which is equipped with a heater. Biofilters (ruffles) provide mechanical wastewater treatment
Post-treatment of wastewater is organized in the filtration fields located near the outlet of the tank. Septic Mole can be used in the form of a conventional storage device, from which sewage is pumped out periodically with sewage machines.
Important! The manufacturer offers to purchase their products together with a special fastening system, which does not allow the plastic container to “pop up” when the soil freezes and swells.
The device of vertical models
Vertically oriented models of sealed plastic containers are recommended to be installed on summer cottages and household plots of a small area. In this case, you can select the mole septic tank, made in a single-chamber, two-chamber or three-chamber version. The degree of clarification of polluted effluents depends on the number of chambers. In addition, in multi-chamber septic tanks, it is possible to organize the separation of household liquid waste, directing wastewater without human waste products into the second chamber immediately.
At the overflows that provide the connection of individual chambers, biofilters are located. Ruffs act not only as mechanical filters, but also as the basis for settling colonies of microorganisms that affect the rate of bioremediation processes. The location of the ruffs in the tank is such that they can be easily removed for cleaning or replacement. The precipitate settling on the bottom base of the first chamber is pumped out as necessary.
Important! At the request of the customer, the Krot septic tank can be supplied by the manufacturer with a pump for forced pumping of treated (clarified) effluents. In this case, the treatment plant becomes volatile.
The device of horizontal models
The horizontal septic tank Mole is made only in the form of a single-chamber tank, the volume of which is 1170 liters. The height of the products is 1440 mm (for comparison, in vertical models this figure is 2250 mm). However, combining two or three of these products into one design using overflow pipes eliminates this drawback. By analogy with the device of vertical models, horizontal septic tanks also have biofilters.

The three-chamber horizontal septic tank “Mole” is assembled by the manufacturer from single-chamber plastic containers connected by pipes for overflow of treated effluents
It is recommended to use these septic tanks together with devices that protect them from "ascent", which must be purchased from the manufacturer for an additional fee. Of course, you can save money, but then you will have to attach a plastic container to the concrete slab to withstand seasonal movements of the soil.
Advantages of acquiring septic tanks of this brand
The list of advantages of septic tanks of this manufacturer includes the following:
- The structural strength of plastic containers installed at great depths is ensured by accurate calculation of the size of stiffeners, as well as their correct placement.
- When installing this septic tank, it is not necessary to fill in the sand-cement filling along the perimeter, which is necessary for other plastic devices to further strengthen their body.
- Separation of effluents by degree of pollution. The presence in the second chamber of the septic tank of special openings for the discharge of slightly polluted water coming from the washing machine, sink, bathtub, shower, etc.
- The presence of a unique container mounting system developed by the manufacturer for high-quality and quick installation of its products. No need to use concrete slab.
- Free access to the inlet pipe and biofilters, which makes it possible to take care of the treatment plant without problems.
- The ability to install tanks in the area, which is characterized by a high groundwater level. The presence in the design of additional locks allows you to install a septic tank Mole without additional anchoring.
- No need to attract special equipment for the installation of containers, as their weight is negligible.
Owners of cottages and suburban cottages respond positively to septic tanks of domestic production, while the quality of treatment facilities is not inferior to more expensive models.
