Septic tanks and drainage in Middelburg
Middelburg is a farming and steel town where the sewer reaches most of the older suburbs, but not the surrounding district. Homes in Eastdene, Aerorand and Kanonkop are mainly connected, while smallholdings and farms along the Hendrina and Belfast roads depend on septic tanks, soakaways and the odd french drain. Winter is cold and dry and summer storms are heavy, so soakaways that cope in June can flood in January. Clay soils with a shallow rock layer in places limit absorption trenches. Honey sucker trucks work from town and from eMalahleni, and farmers often combine a pump-out with a drainage inspection on the same visit.
Typical septic tank chemicals requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a bacteria starter after a pump-out and a monthly tablet to keep the tank settled
- Farms and game farms: bulk bacteria for worker housing tanks and farm kitchens that produce a lot of grease
- Smallholdings and plots: enzyme treatment for a large tank, with a pump-out still planned every few years
- Factories, mines, sites and events: drums of treatment for site ablution tanks and temporary camps
- Restaurants, shops and offices: regular products for tanks and grease lines at restaurants and takeaways
- Estates and complexes: a dosing plan for shared tanks, delivered by the supplier on a schedule
- Schools, churches and clinics: scheduled supply for schools and clinics, with safety data sheets on file
