Blackwater septic system for my camper part 1. #farmlife #hobbyfarm #blackwatersepticsytem #blackwaterseptictank #camperseptictank ... www.facebook.c...
It is quite funny to be concerned with septic leaks at fittings, as a septic system is designed to leak. But, the holding tanks can't leak as they need to maintain effluent for organic sewage breakdown.
Awesome. I have the exact same idea for my trailer. My trailer isn't really mobile anymore, so I'll build an outhouse over the first barrel with a 8 foot line to the trailer direct. I'm glad to see it works. Thanks.
Happy Fathers Day David! (I don't have any kids myself - That I know of I should probably add 😄 .) You took Aron's Kubota - Well he has to get one of his own then, there's nothing else to it. I wouldn't have clue on how to build things like this, never done it. In my home country Sweden I think Septic tanks are the most common in houses outside the cities, but you can not have an infiltration system like this - You must have a slurry truck to come and empty it for you. Electric toilets (incineration toilets) did gain popularity some years ago but some politicians thought that what might come out from the chimney pipe wasn't good for the environment so they changed the legislation around them. Nowadays you need to get an environment impact survey done first and the cost to get that done is way to high and it killed off the market for incinerator toilets. It's a very complicated business to get your sanitation facilities sorted in Sweden, not as straight forward as you might think. Cheers / Mr_B_Dublin
I am currently redoing a septic field system mainly for RV dump and hookup. Using a Kubota BX25 for careful excavation of PVC pipe and salvaging the drain rock for reuse. This field was installed by a previous property owner when all they needed to do was install a new d-box on the original 30 year old home system. This field was unused for the past 8 years, so reusing materials is feasible. Love the BX25.
Currently doing the same system for an offgrid camp using 4 barrels then the field. Quick question? How did you compress the fittings between the barrel inner and outer ?
Привет Вам из России! 😊 Я планирую сделать подобную систему канализации в своем летнем доме. Площади у меня мало рядом, но грунт хорошо впитывает воду. По этому сделаю третью бочку с отверстиями вместо поля фильтрации. И в начале сделаю вертикальную трубу для вентиляции. Еще у нас продаются, да и у вас они наверняка есть, бактерии для разложения органики. Если их добавлять в унитаз раз в месяц, то в первой бочке фекалии будут разлогаться и откачивать придется гораздо реже. Но для этого на улице должно быть тепло. Всего Вам хорошего! Good luck 👍
Thank you for the welcome from Russia! My home is a camper, so I drain my tanks once a week or every 2 weeks, depending on the use. I add a packet of enzymes to each tank after I've dumped it into my septic system! What's best about the enzymes is that they are lemon scented, which is better than the Borax! Thank you for watching my video. I hope to hear from you again soon! Take care and always have fun!
There's a cap on top of the taller barrel that has a screw lid on it to allow for it to be drawn out! There is a local company that removes septic sludge!
Could you tell us why, I have no clue, I have always used a sock, but if this felt stuff is less expensive? What happens to felt, will you come back and elaborate? Or are you a tRoLl?
@@daviddarling5611fellow nicotine addict here… please go get a vape and save your lungs. I quit smoking in 2013 and switched to a vape and I can breathe so much better. It’s easier to quit the vape so switch to a vape and step down the nicotine. Good luck. Second, I just bought 117 acres in Virginia and want to do something similar. But the county won’t approve the system that you installed here. 55 yr old widow Trying to figure this out.
Nobody smokes because they WANT to, it's a horrible addiction I still fight decades later. What worked for me the last time I quit was being POed at big tobacco for profit on my slavery. Grr. Get mad! Get out! You don't have to be enslaved either! That said, I liked that you were so political ly incorrect as to have a smoke in your video.
Done this or very similar to this but used two old and Kleenex out 250 gallon steel house hold oil furnace fuel tanks.one difference was there was clean out access hatches in the top of tanks in 30 years I pumped out the first tank once. I'm going to now pump both tanks this spring. Just because. I have the same system on my shop. I have a strict policy with written signs saying. Please. No paper or feminine hygiene products to be flushed down this system. Thank you. This in system works with your suport. Thank you. PS I also have lined waist baskets in the heads. For the disposal of these products. That I burn in camp fire or the wood stove. However I believe you will benefit from the add clean out hatches. Rather than these drums you can use septic or sewage pump chambers. Like I say I have been using my systems for over 30 years and this design is very similar. ❤
That's not Kleenex it's cleaned out 250 gallon furnace fuel tanks. With access holes cut out of the top with covers to pump out the tanks if ever needed.
your great grandchildren will be using this for a hundred years great job 😊

I had a similar system for one person lasted 15 years without any pump outs. Tore out the barrels - the primary Barrel had about 8 in of sludge.
Wow, that's excellent! I'm the only one currently using this system, so it could last 15 years. It's great to hear 👍 thanks for sharing

Nice setup and perfectly ILLEGAL in most areas.
Such a HELPFUL post. 😢
You would remind the teacher that the class has homework….didn’t you
@@lizardfreak321
Nope.

@@blaydCA fair point, misunderstood comment🙏🏼
Hater
How is the setup working for you today? I'm about to put this exact system at my place this weekend.
I would kill to have actual DIRT like that! 🙂 We are about to start the same project, but will need a full size backhoe to get through all the rock.
Hola David...and happy father's day!! ❣️💃🏿
Hola Jacqueline! Thanks 😊
It will last forever 👍
Y’all crafty folks w the right kinda know how. Nice 👍🏻
Thanks Mags 😊
Currently doing the same system for an offgrid camp using 4 barrels then the field. Quick question? How did you compress the fittings between the barrel inner and outer ?
We used silicone sealer!
Ok ty ...I was considering that as well as 3" bulkhead fitting with a rubber gasket to compress it .
We cut holes that fit the 90''s l, then used silicone to seal around the 90's and allowed for the silicone to for a shin around it.
Small leaks are ok, when you fill it in everything will be ok....
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!

How do you pump out the sludge after a few years?
There's a cap on top of the taller barrel that has a screw lid on it to allow for it to be drawn out! There is a local company that removes septic sludge!
@@daviddarling5611but the hose they use is bigger than the clean out. Or they have a smaller hose for this?
@@jasparramirez9554 It depends on the company. Some companies have a variety of adapter hoses.
Thankyou Dave!:))
Where do you have the vent at?
I have my cap open to drain my gray water line constantly so it doesn't cause a vacuum 🙃
Felt paper as in roofing paper??
It's not roofing paper! It's a thin felt paper for septic system!
Fkn hell 😂
You're gonna wish you would have used sand sock on those field lines instead of felt
Could you tell us why, I have no clue, I have always used a sock, but if this felt stuff is less expensive? What happens to felt, will you come back and elaborate? Or are you a tRoLl?
DOPE
Great video. Try to lose the dirty finger and smoldering cig in front of the camera
My finger is in all of my videos 😆 I received the stop smoking patches today along with lozenges!
Wish i could do this without the dam government bothering!
You can, be brave. We are currently living in a bravery deficit.
The drainfield is way too small.
none of the pipes will be full
Did you put any pvc inside the barrels?
There is only a 90-degree elbow inside the containers.
This is illegal in any states of America.
@sakabatanuki9744 I'm sorry you feel that way, but I worked for a Septic Tank company, and they installed systems like this, but on a larger scale
Found the vaxed guy, how many boosters mate?
Wrong kind of rock.
what is the correct rock?
Don’t say wrong without a suggestion, so get your a$$ back here and tell us, what type of rock, oh, you won’t, your a tRoLl.
Would have gave a thumbs up be I watched my mom and brother die from COPD tied to a oxygen tank, FROM TO MANY Cigarettes. Sorry
I am working on quitting smoking!

Quit quit quit smoking. The dumb people are reproducing and smart people are dying. Get off the tobacco.
Nobody smokes because they WANT to, it's a horrible addiction I still fight decades later. What worked for me the last time I quit was being POed at big tobacco for profit on my slavery. Grr.

It won't work the backfill will turn to mud mud is heavier than water and will crush the barrels
It is still working! The barrels never crushed 😍
