Renovating a non-collective sanitation system is a regulated project
Renovating a non-collective sanitation system is a regulated project. Here are the mistakes to avoid and the solutions :
| o Not carrying out a hydrogeological study. | o The hydrogeological study will determine the type of work to be carried out depending on the nature of the soil and the space available |
| o Installing a system that is inappropriate for the type of soil or the capacity of the home. | o Have the soil study validated by the SPANC before starting the work. |
| o Using a works company that is not qualified and/or insured for this type of work. | o Select a competent works company and ask for its ten-year certificate. |
| o Neglecting administrative procedures that could delay or compromise authorisation of the work. | o Ensure that the project manager has the work inspected during and at the end of the project, in order to obtain a certificate of compliance from the SPANC. |

Your septic tank, a key element that needs regular maintenance!
Did you know that your septic tank should be emptied as soon as the sludge reaches 50% of the tank (i.e. approximately every 3 to 4 years) to avoid unpleasant surprises? 🛠️
A poorly maintained septic tank can lead to high repair costs and inconvenience in your home. Remember to call in a professional (a drainer registered with the DDTM) to ensure that your system is working properly.
