Crystal Septic Tanks

Crystal traditional two chamber Septic Tanks can be fitted with a septic tank filter to protect the soakaway.

These septic tanks produce a much better effluent than 'Onion' shaped ones. Our laboratory tests have shown that these septic tanks produce an effluent that is less polluting to the environment. They are very versatile and the inlet can be made to suit any drain depth. They also have a much shallower in-ground depth. 30 year tank warranty. Septic tank emptying arranged nationwide. Septic tanks can only discharge to a soakaway drainfield (with Environment Agency permission) and cannot discharge to a ditch. We specialise in septic tank supply.

Septic Tank Conversion Unit

Sustainable non-electric bio treatment plants produce almost pure water and can also be used to convert septic tank systems into a full wastewater treatment plant. They are installed after the septic tank and supply the missing biozone and final settlement tank present in a three stage sewage treatment plant. This is a much cheaper option than installing a new soakaway as the clean water can discharge directly into a ditch with Environment Agency Permission.

Wastewater Treatment Plants including Non-Electric

Crystal supply both electric and non-electric sewage treatment plants throughout the UK. These plants replace the septic tank and soakaway and can discharge directly to a ditch or watercourse with Environment Agency permission. All our low cost sewage treatment plants have full EN 12566-3 2005 Certification and are accepted by the Environment Agency. Our single house sewage treatment plant prices start at £1420.00 plus VAT.

Wastewater System Performance

Crystal sewage treatment plants are the modern bio answer to traditional septic tank systems without the smell, restriction on wastewater discharge options or bio-pollution - Just pure water.

Sewage Treatment Plant and Septic Tank Advice

Our experts are here to help you with any sewage, septic tank or drainage issue you may have. We give honest, independent, impartial advice on all types of wastewater plant, septic tanks and septic tank Installation. We can organise a free septic tank survey of your site and free soakaway design to current British Standards throughout the UK.

Which Sewage Treatment Plants and Septic Tanks are LEGAL

There are two categories of sewage treatment equipment - ones that claim to meet the standards required by the Authorities and those that have been tested by the EN testing centres and proved to treat wastewater to a certain standard, giving a quality of effluent most suited to the site and customer requirements.

This test costs around £40,000 per model.

Many of the former tanks are simply sold on price, have insufficient volume to comply with the British Standard, blow insufficient air as small compressors are much cheaper, have never been independently tested by anyone.

The British Standards Institute has informed us that the EN 12566-3 2005 is the ONLY British Standard in place, although it could be a lot better than it is. See 'Why the EN 12566 is a bad test'. Many manufacturers, dealers and installers simply hope that the customer is either ignorant of the current EN 12566-3 British Standard, or they declare that the sewage treatment unit or tank is 'designed' to or 'complies' with EN 12566-3.

To make sure that the EN 12566-3 2005 Certificate is genuine, visit the PIA Website for a list of Companies that have actually tested their systems there. Click on 'Referenzen' on the side menu of the PIA site.

Some septic tanks 'advice' given by drainage companies is totally wrong and contravenes all the UK septic tank regulations.

Our specialist design work and advice is FREE, accurate, up to date and ALWAYS complies with British Standards, E.A. Pollution Prevention Guidelines and the current Building Regulations. We will always strive to find the most suitable product for your site. Please see our company profile.

We pride ourselves on being experts in sewage treatment, not expert salesmen.
