tank is a very important element of the overall design, which is a local sewer system, and is intended not only for collecting, but also for treating wastewater. It should be noted that the operation of this equipment is based on the principle of biological treatment, which involves gravitational settling of wastewater. Local sewerage is becoming increasingly in demand among residents of private and country houses, as it creates comfortable living conditions and significantly improves the quality of life.
Like any other technical structure, an autonomous sewer system of this type requires timely maintenance and preventive repair work. This will not only help extend the life of the septic tank , but will also protect the equipment from premature breakdowns, contamination and other unforeseen nuances. It is worth noting that in order to obtain the highest quality and long-term results, the repair and maintenance of septic tanks must be carried out by a qualified technician with many years of experience in this field.

We work with all brands of septic tanks: Topas, Tver, Unilos Astra, Deka, TopolWater, Yubas, Eurobion, Bioxi and others.

Timely cleaning of the septic tank is a guarantee of uninterrupted operation. The procedure is carried out at least 1-2 times a year (depending on the brand and configuration of the system).
Why do you need to clean a septic tank?
Systematic cleaning guarantees:
- increase in service life;
- no unpleasant odor;
- normal functioning of drains in the house, without stagnation of liquid in the pipes;
- high level of wastewater purification guaranteed by the manufacturer (up to 95%).
There are no septic tanks without maintenance. Autonomous sewers from different manufacturers still require maintenance.
The main causes of septic tank malfunctions
There are several main reasons why an autonomous sewer system may break down and stop working at full capacity. For example:
- in the spring, when snow drifts actively begin to melt, the treatment station can be seriously flooded with groundwater (up to the complete immersion of the septic tank under water along with expensive equipment, which is fraught with a major breakdown of many electromechanical parts inside the system);
- Improper use of a septic tank (in particular: dumping inorganic waste into the sewer) can lead to a blockage in the airlift, due to which the wastewater in the system cannot pass into the next compartment and begins to stagnate, emitting an unpleasant odor and causing serious problems. equipment breakdowns;
- mechanical wear of the air compressor, which inevitably happens every 3-4 years and implies a complete replacement of this equipment.
If you operate your septic tank as responsibly as possible and regularly clean the system of contaminants, you can significantly extend its service life. Also, do not forget that the maintenance of an autonomous sewer system should be carried out exclusively by specialists who not only have professional skills and experience, but also the modern equipment necessary to carry out the relevant activities.

About septic tank repair
Despite the fact that a septic tank is a very durable and reliable structure that can function perfectly for decades without the slightest hint of breakdowns or malfunctions, sometimes such an autonomous treatment facility still loses its productivity due to various types of breakdowns. Most often, the main reason for this phenomenon is ignoring the standard rules for maintaining the station, as well as its improper use, including untimely cleaning. That is why it is more advisable to initially entrust the servicing of your autonomous sewer system to specialists with extensive experience and relevant skills in carrying out these activities.
Unqualified intervention in the operation of a septic tank can not only significantly worsen the situation, but also seriously damage important treatment equipment. If waste is not completely removed from the system, it will thicken quite quickly, which can lead to major damage inside the septic tank. Servicing of the septic tank is mandatory before the start of each new season, which significantly increases the productivity of the autonomous sewer system.
What is included in the maintenance of cleaning systems?
Visual inspection: open the lid and draw water from the sump into a glass container. The water should stand for 30 minutes. If 50% are dense particles, then you need to pump out a third of the sump.
If the particles make up a smaller volume, then you need to pump out a quarter of the volume of the sump.
Sewerage maintenance once a quarter:
- The installation turns off for 20 minutes;
- The station is turned on and the pipe is released from the pump (the clamp is removed, the plug is removed);
- The sludge is pumped out when the station is operating in the first mode;
- In the receiving chamber, the circuit breaker must be in the raised position;
- Fresh water is poured in in the volume that was pumped out;
- The coarse fraction filter is cleaned;
- The hair catcher is taken out and cleaned;
- The walls of the chamber are washed;
- Pumps are washed;
- The station is turned off and non-recyclable waste is removed;
- The injectors are cleaned with a needle.
The product pumped out of the reservoir serves as an excellent fertilizer; it is poured into compost.
Every six months: the membranes on the compressor are replaced.
Once a year: the compressor is checked and all components of the system are adjusted; the air filter is cleaned. Preventative work is being carried out.
What methods can be used to clean a septic tank?
To pump out sludge from a septic tank, you need a fecal pump. You will also need a container for carrying sludge to the compost pit or transporting it for disposal. Cleaning up VOCs with your own hands is a thankless task. It is often better to call a sewer truck. The call costs money, but you won’t have to deal with dirt and waste.
Sludge from a septic tank is a first-class organic fertilizer for the garden. In summer, it only needs to be dried in the sun after removing it from the sump.
The easiest way to clean interior walls and equipment is with a pressure washer. Doing this dirty work manually is too labor-intensive and time-consuming. And not all silty deposits can be quickly washed off with a rag.
If the septic tank functions as a conventional sewage storage tank, then the wastewater from it can only be pumped into the barrel of a sewage disposal machine. It is prohibited to use them on a personal plot as fertilizer.
However, with a long break between cleanings, this sewage often turns into a viscous fecal mass, which is difficult to pump out. To liquefy it, you will have to pour a special chemical based on nitrates, ammonium or formaldehyde into the container.
Application for equipment repair
If an unusual situation occurs with your septic tank in its operation, a smell appears or an alarm light comes on, you can always call our office or fill out an application, regardless of where you purchased your treatment plant and receive comprehensive technical support. Regardless of the reasons for the breakdown of the septic tank, our company’s engineers will conduct a complete diagnosis of the treatment facility and provide technical recommendations for normalizing operation.
The cost of on-site and diagnostics is from 2500 rubles.

Pumping and maintenance of septic tank Tver
The septic tank was installed in 2010, in 2021 we cleaned it ourselves and at the same time bought new components.
In October 2021, we decided to pump it out, wash it and service it professionally with the help of the company. I started calling different offices and they all said that I needed to change the brushes and chalk and pebbles. Why, because I already changed them 3 years ago. I really liked the communication at the Super-septic Company, and also the fact that they did not offer me replacement components - it was honest, and therefore surprising. They served everything wonderfully and efficiently. Irina, Kashirsky district, village. Korostyleva

Rodlex S3000 - septic tank squeezed
In August 2021, I purchased two containers RODLEX S300 and SO3000 + with a Rodlex UN500 neck for each.
In August 2021, these tanks were installed on the site and put into operation. The groundwater level is high, the soil before the pit was dug was loam.
Separate drains are organized from the house: toilets and a kitchen sink are discharged into the two-chamber Rodlex SO3000, everything else is discharged into the single-chamber Rodlex S3000.
In the summer of 2021, I discovered a soil failure near the S3000 tank, which was caused by the deformation of this tank.
Representatives of Rodlex stated (without visiting the site) that my warranty had expired (and this is only 1 year! for a tank with a service life of 50 years...), the septic tank was installed incorrectly - backfilling with sand-concrete is necessary, as indicated in the passport (which I'm not here, just an invoice) ...

Septic tank Tver maintenance.
A Tver septic tank was installed in 2010 for a large house.
A few years later, the same one installed a small Tver in my bathhouse. It’s 35 meters from the road to the bathhouse. A special barrel with a long, long sleeve arrives - this is a rarity. Every time they recognized me on the phone and showed respect. I have already ordered maintenance from them several times. They come when it’s convenient for me – on weekends. Always with your own sewer truck. They work for about an hour and a half. Everything is washed, including brushes. I order service once every two years. I chose a septic tank, at one time, for a very long time and thoroughly. It was important for me that it didn’t stink and worked without electricity, during blackouts, etc. I live in Vladimir region. It’s good that the company has continued to operate all these 10 years. I really... Sergey, Vladimir region, Kirzhachsky district, Krasny Ogorok village

Septic tank Tver. Service.
Installed a super septic tank in Tver in 2021. For 5 people - 0.75 PN.
The pump threw out, at first, clean water. This year, the smell began to appear periodically. I took off the covers and there was a lot of dirty sludge floating in the pump chamber. I started calling different companies. Nobody could explain the reason. Many said this was the norm. I received excellent advice over the phone. Within 20 minutes the cause was identified. It turned out that earlier, during the installation of the container, the outlet hose was inserted into the wrong place, and primer got into it. There was an overflow. I invited their specialist and a barrel for pumping. Indeed, an engineer arrived in his car. Explained everything, showed it, set it up. The smell went away by evening. Thank you very much...

Proper operation of the septic tank
When operating an autonomous sewer system, it is important to adhere to some rules:
- Do not allow inorganic waste (plastic, sand, dirt, debris) to enter the sewer system. This will lead to disruption of the treatment facilities.
- Avoid getting medications, alcohol, rotting vegetables and fruits into the unit. These substances will cause the death of aerobic bacteria.
- Do not clean the septic tank or repair it yourself if you do not have the necessary knowledge about the design and operation of the equipment.
- When the power supply is turned off, minimize water consumption to avoid damage to the station.
