Thanks for replies. I’m only interested in non electric systems.

I know there are a few posts already with this topic but they all seem to revert back to comments about electric systems. We are looking for information on non electric sewage treatment systems only . Keen to hear any feedback from anyone with one of these. Thanks.

You have a separate meter for the sewage plant and divide by the number of houses using it.

Yes, Peter, it’s written in all of our deeds that we are all liable for 1/5 of the cost of maintaining, repairing or replacing the system. Yes they are aware of the small electricity usage but are ‘green’! I’m not sure legally we could tell them to get a separate one themselves. We also have an issue with another neighbour who delays paying the maintenance for months until I have sent him 3 bills and threaten to take him to court! Never again would I buy a house with a shared sewage treatment works! We looked at the Klargester Biodisc but feel there are so many moving parts that may be an issue. If the pump on a new system can be situated separately and under the ground then that may be an option Timedout. If we can get our neighbour to agree!

Hi Bart, we are in the same predicament as you. We need to replace our very old sewage treatment plant. We do not want to hear any noise from pumps or blowers. We have been looking at the biorock system which looks great in principal, but lots of companies say, oh you don’t want one of those! What did you decide?

Hi, new to this forum, hoping to find some info regarding a new sewage treatment works. We need a replacement system to serve 5 houses, one house wants a totally non electric system and refuses to pay towards an electric one. I have read conflicting reviews on the Biorock system and several companies do not recommend it. Any information would be appreciated. ? We would have gone for an electric system but are very concerned about noise from a blower/ pump!
