MANTAIR

Sewage Treatment Conversion Units

The MANTAIR range of sewage treatment conversion units provide a discrete, reliable and cost effective solution to sewage treatment in locations where mains drainage is not available and where an existing septic tank or cesspool is present.

Supplied to site as a purpose made singe unit, the MANTAIR unit fits into the existing septic tank or cesspool, effectively converting it into a small sewage treatment plant. The effluent produced will then comply with the standard required by the Environment Agency for the discharge of effluent, direct to a natural watercourse. No further filters or soakaway’s are therefore necessary.

How Does It Work?

The MANTAIR conversion unit is powered by a small air blower, which can be located in either an existing outbuilding or in a 'Beehive' – a purpose built blower housing designed to blend into the natural setting.

The blower can be located up to 25 metres from the MANTAIR conversion unit and is powered by domestic 240v electrical supply. It is a connected to the unit by a small bore MDPE pipe concealed underground. The blower provides the air that is required for the treatment process and to lift the treated effluent to the discharge point.

Installation & Commissioning

The first stage is to carry out an initial survey of your existing tank. This enables us to determine the condition of the tank and to ascertain the dimensions required by MANTAIR to manufacture your unit. Each conversion unit is custom built.

The second stage is the on – site installation. The MANTAIR unit when installed stands on the floor of the existing tank. The tank must therefore be emptied and all debris removed from the floor of the tank prior to the installation taking place.

On the majority of sites only minor civil engineering works need to be carried out. This minimises the disturbance to established gardens.

Finally the unit is commissioned by our operatives, to ensure optimum operational effectiveness, of your MANTAIR unit
