Blowin in the the wind

We all do it, it has to be mentioned, and I am quite proud of our approach.  Basically, sh!t needs shovelling, and this is how we are going to do it.

I will write a future blog about the environmental aspects of the build, but for now this is how we shovel what needs to be shovelled.  The thing to remember here is we do not have a connection to the mains sewerage, and that would have been a challenge as we are below road level.

The bio-digester and the hole that it is going to be sited in.  It has to be below the level of the house so gravity can do its work.

So, in case you didn't believe me, here it is buried in the hole.  Trenches have been dug so that pipes can pass the waste in for chemical treatment, and then out so the "fresh water" the waste is converted into soaks into the water course.  An inspection tower is half way between the unit and the end of the pipework.

The inspection tower and the trench to take the pipe (and the waste) out to the water course.

Same thing different angle.

Now you see them, now you don't...
