Drainage Field Installation & Airseptor Conversion Near Churt
Location: Near Churt, Surrey
Services: Drainage Field Installation and Airseptor Septic Tank Conversion
Property: Residential property with five to six bedrooms
The Challenge
The existing septic tank at a property near Churt was no longer compliant with current requirements, and its associated soakaway had failed.
The owners needed a solution that addressed both problems: upgrading the sewage treatment system and replacing the failed drainage arrangement.
The new drainage field also needed to be correctly sized for a property with five to six bedrooms.
Our Solution
Rather than replacing the existing septic tank with a completely new packaged sewage treatment plant, CH Services converted the tank into a sewage treatment system using Airseptor.
We also designed and installed a new linear drainage field, sized according to the property's wastewater requirements.
This approach allowed us to upgrade the existing sewage treatment arrangement while providing a new drainage field.
The Installation
We completed the Airseptor septic tank conversion and constructed the new linear drainage field.
The drainage field was installed within the garden, with the pipework laid out to provide the required drainage arrangement.
Once installation was complete, we spread the excess excavated soil evenly across the affected area and planted grass seed to help restore the garden.
The Result
The property now benefits from an Airseptor-converted sewage treatment system and a newly installed drainage field sized for its five-to-six-bedroom requirements.
We completed the drainage work and reinstated the surrounding ground, leaving the site ready for the grass to re-establish.
This project highlights how an existing septic tank and failed soakaway can be upgraded together, where the existing tank is suitable for conversion.
