Hi,
My septic tank runs off into a catch pit, but that's as far as the effluent gets. The catch pit is pretty mucky and I will be clearing this which has built up over many years. However, I think the soakaway has also failed, so would like to add a new one.
My questions is whether I could use the attenuation cells as discribed? I am on sand and the water seems to soak away pretty quickly. For a house of 4 how many cells would you recommend?
Just checked the price of the cells, £35-00 each!, seems an expensive option for a plastic milk crate!
Thanks
Simon
