Lifting sewage

[Retired Red]

Couple of permitted development houses to be built in a restricted space . I have a 150 mm waste pipe leading to a large treatment tank with spare capacity 8 metres distant from the new builds. The waste will have to be lifted (pumped )two feet higher to access the 150mm pipe. Any advice appreciated

Just pump the lot. A customer of mine does, he has a JS 750 with float switch, in a manhole chamber. I often have a spare pump (not a fortune) in stock for him. When it fails/blocks up, the s**t runs down the field, so doesn't back up.

Running down the field is not an option because of its roadside situation and neighbouring properties.

Mascerator pump with float switches and alarms and things. Even then try to discourage things going down there that haven't 'been through the body' as they say

Just a pain , deep manhole with a float switch pump half up , and one 3/4 way up as a backup , both connected via a light on top of chamber so that you can see which pump is operating , swap pumps over once a year and keep a spare
