Septic tanks
« on: February 06, 2008, 08:17:50 PM »
Can anyone help us out with a name of someone in Kalkan who could sort out a bit of a "smelly" problem.?
Our septic tank keeps overflowing, and we think it''s due to a mains water pipe constantly filling it up.
We were having to get the cesspit emptied every 2 or 3 days, and with only 2 of us in the villa this isn''t right.
Sorry if the subject has put anyone off their tea! but we are getting rather desperate ......

How big is the tank, limetree?

Lots of the old toilet tanks in Kalkan were very small, and did have to be emptied every two or three days.
If you''re in a new house, I''d have thought they''d have made the tank a bit bigger, but you never know..

Also, are you sure that only your house''s waste is going into it? It''s not absolutely unknown for one property''s wastes to be going into a neighbour''s toilet tank, particularly in the old bit of the town.

Many parts of Kalkan are now being connected to mains sewers so I would check if your property is in line for this before spending too much on septic tanks
