Septic tanks and drainage in Brits
Brits is an irrigation and industrial town below the Magaliesberg, with the sewer serving the central suburbs and not much beyond them. The agricultural holdings around Hartbeespoort, Schoemansville, Damonsville and the Crocodile River valley rely on septic tanks and french drains, and the weekend and holiday houses by the dam add seasonal loads. Black clay and alluvial soil near the river and the dam are poorly draining and the water table is high, which is hard on soakaways. Factory sites and farm worker housing use conservancy tanks. Honey sucker operators work from Brits and Hartbeespoort, and the Gauteng side supplies tanks and plant.

Typical biodigesters requests in the area come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: a larger digester with biogas for the kitchen and treated water for the garden
- Farms and game farms: digesters for worker housing, sometimes fed with manure to raise biogas output
- Houses: a compact digester that replaces an old septic tank at an off-sewer house
- Factories, mines, sites and events: a site unit for staff ablutions at a quarry, depot or remote works
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: a digester sized for seasonal guest numbers, paired with a filter bed
- Estates and complexes: a shared digester for a small cluster, with approval from the body corporate
- Restaurants, shops and offices: a small unit for a roadside shop or office that is far from a sewer
Local tips for Brits
Most work in Brits is done by teams based in honey sucker operators in Brits and Hartbeespoort, and the usual setup is septic tanks and french drains on holdings, conservancy tanks at factories. When you ask for quotes, ask whether the soakaway was sized for a dam-side house, not a weekend cottage.
