Septic tanks and drainage in Mbombela
Mbombela has a warm, wet subtropical climate, and that shapes septic work as much as the sewer map does. Suburbs such as West Acres and Sonheuwel are on mains, but White River, Rocky Drift, Karino and the citrus and macadamia farms use septic tanks and soakaways. Decomposed granite and red loam drain reasonably on the slopes, while low ground near the Crocodile and Sand rivers has a high water table that floods soakaways in the rainy season. Guesthouses and lodges on the road to Hazyview run package treatment plants and conservancy tanks with large seasonal loads. Operators and tank suppliers are based in the Riverside and Nelspruit industrial areas.
Typical plastic septic tanks requests in the area come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: a light tank that one truck can deliver to a remote building site
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: larger tanks in series for chalets, with anchoring where the ground is damp
- Farms and game farms: tanks for worker housing and farmstalls, often delivered a long way from town
- Houses: a 2,500 to 5,000 litre buried tank for a new or renovated off-sewer house
- Estates and complexes: a row of plastic tanks serving a few cottages or units on shared ground
- Restaurants, shops and offices: small tanks behind a shop, restaurant or filling station, with a grease trap upstream
- Schools, churches and clinics: tanks for a rural school or clinic where installation must be quick
