Pesuzok: more of a pump which lift th. sewerage from a lower elevation to a higher elevation...bt it is cost effective as it must be on constant power. have u tot of locating the septic tank at a different position and a much lower elevation WRT the inlet pipe. |

Pesuzok: what you mean is that the final slope of the waste drain get to almost half of the septic tank guess .if that is what you mean,you can go down small cos that is more advisable than raising your pipes again exposed round the building except you i can only give you an option of doing something like pavement revolve round the pipes. |

freeman67:haba I didn't mean for it to be this way o. you are taking it too personal. from the pic he uploaded I can tell a lot already. the truth is if you want to help someone do it right. instead of telling him something that he wouldn't understand. I stay in Abuja and I intend visiting the site if he wants me to. This is a very critical moment as whatever he does may either cost him double especially if he takes the wrong step or cost him less. Good engineering is safety and economy. |

As you said, that the only issue now is the pipe. Hch is halve way inside the septic tank, There is solution to it. 1.get what we called non~return valve plastic type or brass of the same pipe size you have there, call your plumber to fix it to the extreme end of pipe inside the septic tank, this valve we allow waste water into the septic tank and it will not allow water to flow in back. 2. Go and get motorcycle inner tube like 2ft long insert it to the end of the pipe inside the septic tank and leave about 1ft plus this will remain free and it will face downward , water will flow into the tank and it can't flow back through the rubber with this, it means the water will riise to the upper area above the pipe without entering the pipe back 1 Like |

steams: Sorry if sounds harsh but that's how I feel when I saw that your post. Money is important but then its not a bad idea if once in a while we offer help to those in need the money can still come through it. |

the open drain I was talking about is the gutter that passes in front of your compound......similar cases are found all over Kubwa axis...as a result we separate the bathroom and kitchen waste from that of the WC...it minimizes the volume of water entering the pit....now instead of channeling your overflow(effluence) pipe to the soak away you just channel it to the gutter....look critically in kubwa village axis, phase 3 and 4....you will get the technology...... Feel free to call me if you are mobile i will take you round and show you samples.... 07068225930 Emeka Arc. |

rotecch77:This is making a lot of sense. Is there a 4" PVC NRV and how durable are they. If in future the NRV gets stuck and refuses to swing open, won't that be a major maintenance. Thanks. |

from my experience in other jobs i av supervised, i will conclude that close to the building site their is water body or canal close to the site,that is why the water bed of that septic site is raised. What you will do is this if you av a good civil engineer supervisin the site for you, 1 tell him to cast a retaining wall along the axis of the water body or canal close to ur site,you can make the fence a retaining wall instead 2 pump out d water frm d septic tank far away frm your site otherwise the water will fine its way back through underground 3 you will observe dt d water will be coming out little if the retaining wall is effective 4 as the water is been pump out form work for the septic tank will also be layed by good carpenter 5 make the formwork to come far above the surface pipe,this is to allow for settlement after casting 6 before casting pour dry cement into the septic tank,this will absorb d water and also it will make the concrete set quickly 7 when mixing use more of granite and cement or beta stil mix ratio 1:3:8, this will set quickly and will be water resistant too you will observe the the first 2wks after casting the septic tank level outward the surface will decrease dont panic u cant excape it,is as a result of settlement, so if the septic tank is allow to exposed outward surface greatly, before it will settle by 300mm it wuld have stalk. further suggestion, for lasting solution you can floor the surrounding or make good drainage round d compound for further details call 07069325148 Engr. felix (Gconstruct ) |

rotecch77:Using this technique will lead to continuos maintenace in future cos the tank will be full easily, and d presure of d rising water wil block the tube outlet leadin to discharge from the toilet wc or slow flushing rate inside the toilet. y not stop the rate at which water sip out frm the soil |

joan2016: Yes. I have seen someone use it here... but I don't know about the reliability. I think it's a very good option if the tank is made thick and strong.. Hajji M. |
