Large Domestic Homes

For large domestic homes, the requirement for septic systems needs a specific approach.

Some large houses and holiday accommodation are simply too big for standard domestic aerated wastewater treatment systems (AWTS) and septic tanks.

These kinds of properties are often designed and approved for 4–5 bedrooms, and do not handle periods of intense use and "shock loads" very well. Holiday accommodation are at risk of poor feedback when the septic is overflowing and stinks!

If you have a house that accommodates more than 8 occupants or a holiday house that can sleep 8 or more, you will need a tailored approach to installing the right septic system for treating wastewater.

Our solution and recommendation is to avoid the cost of two individual domestic size systems and install a semi-commercial size aerated wastewater treatment system (AWTS) that will cope with high use periods and more than 8 people. 

We discuss how you use the property and accommodation before forecasting the volume of use and recommending a suitable sized AWTS and effluent irrigation system.

Testimonials

  • "Super professional and experienced"

    “Rod Wilks and the crew at BluenGrey put in a massive water tank for us after our old concrete tank began to leak. We were caught north of the Qld border the whole time but just a phone call was all that was needed for Rod and the team to take care of everything for us during our absence, including design, liaison with manufacturers, site preparation and integrating the new tank with existing lines. We genuinely recommend this business to anyone who wants a super professional and experienced outfit for everything tanks and septics.”

  • "BluenGrey are a great ‘one stop shop’ service at competitive prices"

    “Having made the decision to move to a semi-rural property at Yass we investigated options for our grey and rain water requirements. We approached BluenGrey who provided a range of options for us to select from. Their personal and professional approach, which included on-site meetings, ultimately led us to choose to proceed with BluenGrey who offered a ‘one stop shop’ service at competitive prices. The installation was trouble free and their follow-on service and advice has been excellent. We are completely satisfied with the BluenGrey services and have no hesitation in recommending them to future customers.”

  • "Rod’s expertise is exceptional"

    “We would like to thank Rod for all his guidance and patience while we were investigating water and sewerage systems, and asking a myriad of questions. We had never built before and knew nothing about what we needed for water and sewerage, so Rod was a fountain of knowledge. His expertise has been exceptional. Both the water tank and the sewerage system were installed hassle-free and passed Council inspection without any issues. We look forward to an ongoing relationship with Rod when he visits to do the necessary checks and balances of our sewerage system”

    – Melissa and Scott Jobson, Tapitallee
