One of the most important areas in the life of urban residents is utilities. This includes plumbing and sewage, electricity and heat. The article will focus on the first two systems. It is advisable to start with a definition. Water supply is a system responsible for the supply of drinking water to residents of the city and enterprises. It is inextricably linked to the sewer.
Wastewater is a system responsible for the disposal of wastewater and its treatment. No one will argue that the life of a modern person is impossible without these important elements. Historically, settlements arose where there was water, but with the development of society, the need arose to remove the consumed resources. Sewerage for the house has become not a luxury, but a condition for a normal living in it. And this applies not only to multi-story urban buildings, but also to private ones. Increasingly, in summer cottages, people began to organize water disposal. This allows you to equip a country house with all the necessary amenities that are appreciated in the real estate market. Advances in modern engineering and technology make it easier to lay the necessary communications.
Firstly, at present, pipes made of polymer materials have been used as transport elements. They have significant advantages. These pipes are lightweight, do not deform due to temperature differences. Secondly, in order to build communications, you do not need to dig deep holes, more and more they use the trenchless method.
Often it is not possible to connect a private country house to a centralized drainage system, then you have to solve this problem either collectively or on your own. For these purposes, use special submersible pumps, the size of which is small.
They are designed for pumping domestic
wastewater. The device is equipped with a mechanism that turns it on and off, depending on the need for this. There is another option. The bathroom, kitchen and toilet are equipped with a special tank, when filling, the pump is turned on. This installation is easy to use, and thanks to the installed filters prevents the leakage of specific odors.
Types specific to a system such as wastewater
This is, first of all, biological treatment plants, as well as underground filtration. The first option is the most economical. The sewage disposal scheme is similar to sedimentation tanks. In a separate tank, the used resources are sedimented and fermented (partial). The main condition is the lack of oxygen. Next, the water is sent to the underground filtration facilities, that is, there is further purification using soil. Such a system has a significant drawback - the need to replace the filter element or its washing with a frequency of 1 time in five, a maximum of 8 years. In private houses, a differently constructed drainage system is more popular. This is a plant with biological purification methods. They use activated sludge or biofilm. This method allows you to clean drains by 90%. There is one significant drawback - the abundance of reagents used in everyday life, significantly reduces the efficiency of the installation.
