Hi all

 

I want to connect to a local authority sewer system but it is a reasonable distance (maybe 50m), am I limited to a maximum run ?

 

Thanks

As long as the fall is right then no problem with 50m

I think i read not long ago that you had to have accessibility, (manhole) within 20m of a connection to a local authority sewer. Might be worth checking.

You'll just need an inspection point every 22mts, depending on situation. And one within 12m of the public connection. I'm assuming you own all the land and have enough fall etc.

 

This is Northern Ireland btw. Check your applicable BC documents.

Excellent, thank you

Might be worth looking at a sewage plant, as depending on local authority the installation  of a plant and drainage may be considerably cheaper than a connection cost.
