Overview of the septic tank "Voskhod": characteristics, model range, installation rules

Installation and commissioning: the maximum optimal distance from the septic tank to the residential building in accordance with all SNIP standards

Voskhod septic tanks are light in weight and dimensions. They are easy to install on your own, without resorting to the help of craftsmen and equipment. When choosing the location of the sump, soil properties, the degree of soil freezing in winter, the depth of groundwater passage are taken into account.

Rules for installing a septic tank Voskhod:

Determination of the location of the septic tank. The place is chosen taking into account the passage of groundwater. Be sure to calculate the depth of soil freezing.If the septic tank is located in the freezing zone, then it will have to be insulated in all possible ways

It is important to know the characteristics of the soil. In clayey areas, drains will have to be cleaned more thoroughly, using additional filters for this;
The distance from the septic tank to the house according to SNIP is at least 6 meters

Drinking water sources are located at a distance of 25 meters from the septic tank;
The bottom of the pit, in which the container is placed, is covered with sand by 30 cm;
The sewer pipe laid to the septic tank is placed at a slope for easy drainage of water;
After the container is placed in the pit, it is filled with water and only then covered with soil.

Variety of models: the price for the system is justified

Septic tanks or settling tanks are containers in which water is collected and settled so that heavy impurities sink to the bottom. Sumps are part of wastewater treatment facilities.

The Finnish company produces septic tanks of the Sako (Sako), Bio (Bio) and BioClean (Bioclin) models. All models are made of dense molded polyethylene, which is different from obsolete treatment facilities. The absence of seams makes Finnish septic tanks airtight and durable. The Uponor septic tank consists of two or three strong chambers connected by overflow patches. Waste water passes alternately through these chambers, is clarified and then enters the filtration fields or absorption fields. A more modern Bio station treats wastewater in three stages, using biological methods and chemical reagents.

Installing a septic tank solves the problem of wastewater in areas where there is no central sewerage. The model is selected depending on the characteristics of the site and the number of people permanently residing in the house.Biochemical methods of wastewater treatment are considered progressive, since the water after them is suitable for use in agriculture.

In addition to septic tanks, the Finnish company sells Uponor pipes, fittings, equipment installation tools and other products for engineering systems. Uponor thermally insulated pipes are used in the laying of water pipes and pressure sewers. They are reliable and have a long service life. Since the country of manufacture of Uponor is Finland, the price for goods of this brand is higher than for similar Russian goods

But the quality and proven performance in northern climates makes Uponor stand out.

Modifications

The Voskhod motorcycle was produced for a long time without any improvements, its technical characteristics generally met the requirements of consumers. However, there were complaints, some buyers expressed the opinion that the car is very noisy and unstable on the road. And although these remarks were isolated, they had an effect.

In 1972, the design bureau of the plant in Kovrov began to modernize the "folk" model. The Voskhod motorcycle began to be called Voskhod-2, and five years later Voskhod-2M, which was produced from 1977 to 1979, rolled off the assembly line. Radical changes in the design of the new car affected mainly the engine. With a cylinder volume of 173.7 cubic meters. cm power increased to 14 "horses" due to the upgraded cylinder head and the expanded configuration of the bypass channels. The compression ratio was 9.2 units. The speed increased to 105 km / h. The new engine required high-octane fuel; in the car's passport, instead of A72 gasoline, they designated A93.

In 1979, the Voskhod-2M motorcycle was renamed.It became known as Voskhod-3. The model was produced until 1983, and then a new, latest modification appeared. It was the Voskhod-3M motorcycle, which completed the model range of light two-wheeled vehicles of the Kovrov plant. This last representative of a worthy family is still considered the best in its class.

Installation of septic tanks: some tips from professionals

Let's consider what difficulties there may be when installing a finished septic tank. Firstly, it is necessary to choose a reliable, competent installation company that installs a treatment plant.

Secondly, take into account what material the septic tank is made of - propylene or polyethylene, and what is the thickness of the walls. Thirdly, it is necessary to ask not only the price of equipment and the cost of installation, but also the cost of servicing the service (the price of pumping out)

It is desirable to purchase septic tanks of well-known brands, since in this case it can be hoped that both spare parts and a service company in the region are available.

To determine the size of a septic tank, it is necessary to take into account, first of all, the number of taps installed in the house, and what is the one-time discharge of water.

If a small number of people live in the house, then you can consider the option of a small septic tank of the "Baby" type

According to statistics, in our country, water consumption per person is taken at the rate of 250 liters per day. But if someone from the family likes to take a bath often or there is frequent washing, then this factor should also be taken into account when choosing the volume of the septic tank.

In order for the septic tank to serve for a long time and properly, it is necessary to regularly do preventive examinations.And also, plastic bags, garbage, chemicals, medicines, especially antibiotics (they are killers of living microorganisms in a septic tank) should not be allowed to enter the sewer.

The lineup

Types of septic tanks Rostock

Now it's worth reviewing the lineup itself. The manufacturing company produces a wide range of septic tanks Rostock. But the following models are most popular for domestic use:

• Rostock Mini. The model has a volume of 1000 liters and is able to treat up to 0.3 m3 of wastewater per day.
• Sprout Dachny. The volume is 1500 liters and it cleans up to 0.45 m3 of wastewater per day.
• Rostock Zagorodny. The volume is 2400 liters and cleans up to 0.88 m3 of wastewater per day.
• Rostock Cottage. The volume is 3000 liters and it cleans up to 1.15 m3 of wastewater per day.

In addition, there are other models on sale. They can be additionally equipped with biofilters and other post-treatment systems.

The cost of Rostock septic tanks depends on their performance and the availability of additional treatment equipment. So, the simplest option (Mini model) will cost the buyer 25-26 thousand rubles. A more productive septic tank "Cottage" will cost about 55 thousand rubles. And, for example, for the Cottage Suite model, which is equipped with four additional biofilters, you will have to pay a little more than a hundred thousand.

Operation features

Both Voskhod models are unpretentious in maintenance. To keep the entire system working, you must:

• once every one or two years, remove sludge (decomposed sediment) from the sump;
• wash the biological filter two or three times a year (you should focus on the degree of contamination or the appearance of an unpleasant odor).

Rinsing is carried out using a strong water jet directed at the filter removed from the working chamber. You can use a hose connected to an outdoor water tap.

If there is a risk of freezing of the soil, it is necessary to additionally insulate the septic tank and pipes of the sewer system. But experts advise initially lowering the system below the freezing point in order to avoid sewerage problems in the near future.

Voskhod-2

septic tank

Voskhod-2 is an improved analogue of the first model.The drive is larger in size and has 2 chambers. The parameters of the device are designed to serve a house with 4-5 residents. The second chamber allows you to better clean the drains. Waste water goes through several stages of purification. Voskhod -2 has the following parameters:

• tank volume - 2000 liters;
• the sump allows you to purify up to 800 liters of water per day;
• capacity parameters 2.27 m * 1.33 m * 1.5 m;
• weight of the empty device - 80 kg.

All Voskhod septic tanks are equipped with a biological filter. It traps solid particles and organic contaminants. This creates a breeding ground for bacteria in the filter. The micro-organisms help clean up the runoff so that the reuse of wastewater for irrigation does not harm the environment. It is not difficult to calculate the distance from the Voskhod septic tank to the house.

New motorcycle "Voskhod-3M"

In the period from 1983 to 1993, the latest 3M model was produced at the Kovrov plant. Compared to its predecessors, the new motorcycle had a number of advantages, such as an increased area of ​​ribbed cooling of the cylinder, the use of a Czechoslovakian carburetor, 12-volt electrical equipment instead of 6-volt, a modern instrument cluster (the speedometer was combined with control lamps for direction indicators and high beam switching on near). The main electrical wiring connections were hidden under the seat in special plastic containers. The motorcycle was equipped with a sufficiently powerful generator, which made it possible to do without a battery.

The front fork received corrugated protective covers, the passenger steps and the kickstarter stop became folding, side rear-view mirrors appeared on the steering wheel.And as a finishing touch to the motorcycle upgrade, an effective anti-theft lock was installed. As a result of all the improvements, the main goal was achieved - reducing engine and chassis noise. The straight-flow silencer was replaced with a sectional silencer with internal bulkheads. The design of the front fork and rear swingarm suspension was revised, while removing all the joints that could cause knocking when driving. As a result of the measures taken, the noise of the motorcycle has noticeably decreased.

How to choose the right modification

The choice of treatment plant depends on its volume and performance. So that users do not waste time on calculations, the manufacturer analyzed important factors - the number of permanent residents and the availability of sewage discharge points - and compiled a convenient table.

How is the choice made? Suppose a family of 4 lives in a country cottage. The house has two bathrooms, a kitchen and two toilets. Guests visit only on weekends. Manufacturer's recommendation - Chistok-3000. However, if a mother-in-law comes to visit for six months or there are 2 children in the family - newborn twin babies, it is better to install Chistok-4000.

The increased volume is also additional protection against volley discharge, and increased time intervals between visits to the sewers.

Advantages of a septic tank Tver

The station is designed for wastewater treatment.

Tver is designed for a long period of use, is distinguished by affordable cost and ease of installation, therefore it is quite in demand among buyers.

However, despite its popularity, the septic tank has both advantages and disadvantages.

The benefits of a septic tank include:

a significant degree of purification (up to 97-98%), which is explained by the passage of the process inside the system. Therefore, additional organization of filtration sections or the use of infiltrators is not required;
durability of use, due to the use of durable and practical polymers in the production process, as well as resistance to corrosion. The term of use of the septic tank Tver can reach several tens of years;
discharge of treated waste water into the soil, reservoirs or ditches

Possibility of application for watering the garden and flower beds
However, it is important to pay attention to the performance of the equipment before buying a model;
high-quality purification of waste water from harmful inclusions, which is explained by the design features of the septic tank, consisting of several containers. The processes of biological decomposition of organic substances, ana- and aerobic reactions, as well as sedimentation take place in them;
the ability to ensure stable operation of equipment with significant wastewater emissions, for example, when draining a bath;

• simple installation process regardless of ground conditions. However, if an increased level of groundwater is observed on the site, the septic tank is fixed with the “anchors” included in the kit, which prevent the equipment from surfacing;
• ease of maintenance and durability of compressors. With proper operation of the septic tank, the insoluble residue requires cleaning no more than once a year;
• no need for regular replacement of cleaning filters, since the sediment in the system is retained by a special partition;
• no need to buy bacteria, since the septic tank already contains them and their number is calculated for the entire period of use of the equipment. In addition, the microorganisms used tend to self-repair;
• a combined method of cleaning Tver, which allows the use of equipment during periodic residence at the facility, and this does not adversely affect its operation.

Combined wastewater treatment provides a slight effect on activated sludge, which is the difference between the Tver septic tank and Topas, which is demanding on electricity and cannot be operated at facilities where the absence of electricity can be 4 or more hours;

• removal of toxic compounds containing phosphorus;
• the durability of the system, due to the location of the compressor inside the room, and not in the treatment plant;
• low probability of system clogging, due to the fact that effluents are not supplied through hoses or pipes;
• ease of cleaning the septic tank, due to the presence of large sewer manholes made of plastic.

In addition to its advantages, the equipment is not without its disadvantages. The main ones are:

• energy dependence. For stable, efficient operation of the structure, regular air supply to the aerotanks is required, which is provided by a compressor. Oxygen is necessary for the development and maintenance of the vital activity of bacteria, which significantly accelerates the time of water purification. However, unlike Topas, the Tver model can operate autonomously (without electricity) throughout the day, but after this period, a decrease in the quality of wastewater treatment will be observed. Therefore, it is necessary to limit the use of a septic tank as much as possible during this period;
• high installation cost.However, Tver does not require the installation of an infiltrator or the organization of drainage wells or the use of filtration fields, which makes it possible to exclude the cost of their construction from the expense item.

Overview of the range

The lineup

Septic Leader is available in several versions. Each model is designed for a certain number of residents. Depending on the power, the cost of the product also differs. Here is an overview of the models that are on the market:

Installation of septic tanks "Voskhod"

Given their low weight and dimensions, these structures can be installed with your own hands, without calling specialists in lifting mechanisms. However, you need to know the properties of your site and the characteristics of the soil, the level of groundwater and the depth of soil freezing in winter.

Step by step installation instructions:

Installation of a septic tank "Voskhod 1"

When deciding to install a septic tank, it is necessary to provide for a drainage well or aeration fields, for which you need to purchase the necessary materials

In addition, it is important to know the soil composition, since on clay soils a more complex design of soil post-treatment will be required, which will entail additional financial costs. The level of soil freezing and groundwater occurrence regulates the depth of the pit and the laying of the sewer pipe leaving the building

At the risk of freezing pipes and septic tanks in the winter, insulation is carried out by all available methods.
Remember that the Voskhod septic tank for wastewater treatment is allowed to be installed according to sanitary standards at a distance of 5-6 meters from the house, at least 20-25 meters from sources of drinking water. From the borders of the neighboring area you need to retreat at least a meter. It is also required to provide free access to the septic tank of the sewage truck.
Before installing a septic tank, you need to dig a pit in size corresponding to the dimensions of the purchased container. The bottom of the pit must be carefully cleaned and leveled to a horizontal level, after which a sand bed should be made to a thickness of 20-30 cm. The sewer pipe leaving the house should be laid to the septic tank with a slope that ensures unhindered flow of drains in a natural way.
It is recommended to fill the installed container with water before backfilling the soil in order to reduce the pressure on the plastic walls.
When installing soil after-treatment, perforated pipes leading wastewater from the septic tank to the aeration field are laid on a 20-centimeter layer of coarse gravel.

Voskhod septic tanks enjoy well-deserved respect, as evidenced by the numerous reviews of those who have already purchased these designs.

The asset of these septic tanks is the installation, care and guaranteed service life of the plastic case, which reaches 50 years.

Septic options: Voskhod-1 and Voskhod-2

The model range of the Voskhod company contains two models, but they are different from each other. "Voskhod-1" is the main structure in the autonomous sewer system. It is designed to separate simple and complex compounds in waste liquids. This separation occurs mechanically. This system does not need electrical energy and additional filters. Also, the septic tank does not need additional maintenance. There is a need to call for service maintenance 1-3 times a year, which depends on the level of complex compounds settled on the bottom.

This septic tank with a volume of 1400 liters, the largest discharge reaches up to 700 liters per day, it can serve from 1 to 4 individuals. Size - 1470 x 1370 x 1510. Its weight is 60 kg. Voskhod-2 differs from Voskhod-1 in that it has two sections. The material from which the system is made, functions and quality are the same as those of Voskhod-1. However, the Voskhod-2 model has large dimensions, a significant volume and is designed in such a way that it can serve 4-5 people.

Voskhod-2 has a volume of up to 2000 liters, the largest discharge of liquid is up to 800 liters per day, its capacity is enough to serve 4-5 people, its size is 2270 x 1330 x 1550. Its weight is 80 kg.

A special detail in the two models is a non-trivial biological filter. It comes with a water treatment system.

Characteristics of the septic tank Voskhod principle of its operation

How does a septic tank work

Most often it happens that there are no central drainage systems in the areas of suburban residential houses and dachas. It is for this reason that the owners of such sites use autonomous sewer systems.

Wastewater treatment with the help of biologically active organisms is considered unconditionally effective.

The Voskhod septic tank enjoys good reviews, it is a local part of the sewerage equipment for suburban areas.

Specifications

Sunrise is a powerful storage facility made of plastic, the walls of which reach a thickness of 15mm. The design is made at the factory. The walls are equipped with rough spars, which are attached around the entire perimeter of the system. With their help, the septic tank is kept in the ground.

A replaceable biofilter, a hatch and a neck for the system are also supplied.

The sewage treatment system is elementary: sewage from the dwelling passes through the tube and ends up in the water treatment system. After that, the waste liquids undergo a process of decomposition into complex elements that remain in the sediment and simple (fatty acids), they fall on the surface of the liquid. Then the liquid comes ready for use (for example, watering garden beds)

Any design of the Voskhod line has biofilters. They are focused on the maximum purification of household wastewater. This filter should be used in large residential areas - 4 m³ per day.

It is suitable for filtering even liquids containing solid compounds. The filter is made of polymeric materials, fibers that are intertwined and then assembled into cylinders.

When installing this septic tank on your suburban area, you should not worry about installing additional sections for filtration. The filter already fulfills its purpose qualitatively. It should be noted that effluents that have passed only one level of treatment are already highly purified.

Septic options: Voskhod-1 and Voskhod-2

The model range of the Voskhod company contains two models, but they are different from each other. "Voskhod-1" is the main structure in the autonomous sewer system. It is designed to separate simple and complex compounds in waste liquids.

This separation occurs mechanically. This system does not need electrical energy and additional filters. Also, the septic tank does not need additional maintenance.

There is a need to call for service maintenance 1-3 times a year, which depends on the level of complex compounds settled on the bottom.

Voskhod-2 differs from Voskhod-1 in that it has two sections. The material from which the system is made, functions and quality are the same as those of Voskhod-1.

However, the Voskhod-2 model has large dimensions, a significant volume and is designed in such a way that it can serve 4-5 people.

Voskhod-2 has a volume of up to 2000 liters, the largest discharge of liquid is up to 800 liters per day, its capacity is enough to serve 4-5 people, its size is 2270 x 1330 x 1550. Its weight is 80 kg.

A special detail in the two models is a non-trivial biological filter. It comes with a water treatment system.

Installation and operation of septic tanks

Residents of suburban areas, who know the principles of installing a water treatment device in the ground, most often perform the installation themselves. The scope of the design and functions of the system are simple and do not require additional technical devices or the call of specialists.

Please note: when installing Voskhod water treatment devices, you need to take into account that there is a need for additional purification of sewage. This means that in addition to the installation itself, it is necessary to install a filtration well or arrange siphon filtration in the form of pipes. Installation sequence: the water treatment system should be installed 5-6 meters from the dwelling, and the distance from the installation to the central water supply should be from 25 meters

It is necessary to take into account the place for the entrance of special equipment

Installation sequence: the water treatment system should be installed 5-6 meters from the dwelling, and the distance from the installation to the central water supply should be from 25 meters. It is necessary to take into account the place for the entrance of special equipment.

The pipes must be placed at an angle to improve the drainage of sewage water.

You also need to take into account how much the ground freezes in the cold season, and protect the structure with a special insulation. The installation is fixed in the ground with cement and sand. Under the structure there should be a flooring of crushed stone with a thickness of 20 cm.
