Recent Legislation
for 2020.
You will most likely be aware of recent laws regarding septic tanks, which resulted in new rules concerning their releases. The main focus of the legislation is the prevention of pollution so you are now no longer allowed to discharge from a septic tank to a watercourse, or to any other type of soakaway system other than a drainage field. Your treatment system must meet the relevant British Standard that was in force at the time your septic tank was installed. The standards currently in force for new systems are:
- BS EN 12566 for small sewage treatment plants
- BS 6297:2007 for drainage fields
By now any upgrades to, or replacements of septic tanks which did not meet the new requirements, should have been completed, (the deadline was January 2020) but if you have any queries or concerns about your septic tank, do not hesitate to contact James Drains Solutions for advice. The following website will also provide you with guidance about these new changes,

Septic Tank Emptying Knutsford.
Your septic tank does not actually treat the waste you create, it simply separates it into layers with just the waste water being piped away to the soakaway system. The scum and sludge remain and require removal. If waste is allowed to build up, over time, problems will occur such as unpleasant odours, inefficient toilet flushing and even the back up of waste into your property. Additionally, it could also lead to the pollution of local watercourses. Therefore, it is vital that you keep your septic tank in good condition through regular emptying and cleaning.
Septic Tank Cleaning
James Drains Solutions have over thirty years’ experience emptying and cleaning septic tanks. We can deal with the full range of makes and models of septic tanks, so you can be assured that the job is in capable hands. The septic tank is cleaned out thoroughly by a powerful suction force which completely empties the waste. This is then taken away and disposed of by us. We will also focus on ensuring that the soakaway, which transports the water from your septic tank, is blockage free.
