How does the orange elbows stay on the flange?
Won't they over time come off the flange.
I was also wondering if there is a tutorial on setting it all up with the soak aways

I liked how this was broken down to basics for folks who haven't worked with the material (e.g. how to screw into that type of plastic without over doing it) my recommendation is you give your viewers an idea of what comes before and after the septic tank so they understand it's going to be a bit more involved to go off grid regarding waste.
I appreciate the step by step instructions and the list of items. Very well done. Thank you 🙏
A true step by step! Thank you! Great video
The same septic tank owner who installed & repaired septic tanks for a living did say that the blue food grade 50 gallon barrels could be made into a 3or4 barrel septic system.first 2 with T's last 2 with straight connectors but all must be at least 1 inch below the next and the initial intake line.
Nobody can explain as well as you! Thank you from Germany
Thank you. I should call you Doctor on how you clearly. Explained this project.
Very detailed! Great video!
I would have had a bit more difference in the levels of the inlet n outlet even if it meant moving/adjusting some metal pipe ! Another thing to think about is adding a second settling tank 6"-8" apart connected in the center via 4" pipe between the two ! Better inlet and outlet fittings (which would require the risers moved from the center of tank and closer to the outter edges for monitoring and cleaning out) would allow for a effluent filter to catch larger pieces of outflow debris and save the soak away field much longer.
Thanks for a lovely video. Idaho off grid.
Lively and helpfull. Thanks
great video, very thorough and clear, Top bloke.Thanks very much
This guy is the Gordon Ramsay of DIY septic tanks
Uh. No. He’s not.
Blow shit out your dickhole
I watched and subscribed, partly because great info, but mostly because I played it at the highest speed and it is hilarious!!!!!
Excellent video, very helpful. Thank you Brother, from Alabama, USA.
Great video thank you for the knowledge...
Do yourselves a favor and get it in the ground before you start cutting holes in it. It’s a lot better to dry fit your pvc to the tank in ground, to see where it will work best first.
I’ve done quite a few septics with these 330 gallon totes in Texas and that black German tank looks sweet but the flimsy white ones work just fine. Just make sure you fill them with water before you start pushing dirt over them so they don’t collapse in the cage :) I alway put a tin top on it too to help with that.
Can you please post a link to where I can get that flange and gasket?
Excellent video, just one idea for the lid we can use hand sanitiser in order to push it in and then it dries off
Awesome thank you!!!
Thanks for your comment.
Can you link where you got your parts from please? Thank yiu
What about ground installation? Stuff like how deep,how far away from the building, angle of the sewer pipe going to the tank,stuff like that?
Exceptional presentation.
Hi where do you get all your fittings from can’t find them here in nz
Great job. But add some tar around the base of riser to keep out tree roots.
Good stuff.. thank you!!!
So how do we use that set up??
I wanna park two rv's, or may build two tiny homes, on my 10 acre property for "quests" and don't wanna drill for water and or install septic systems. Is it crazy to think I might be able to use ibc totes for for storage that would be pumped out once a week or month??
Unrelated... what are all those blue steel containers for?? Do you have a self storage biz there?
Very good vid; I appreciate seeing the details of every step. I have one question; is there a reason to not glue the 90 degree elbows in place? Thank you
I think the 90 has to be glued or will fall into bottom of tank. I wonder how long these will last?
What keeps the 90 degree elbows from falling into the tank? I saw no glue or screws. Thanks
use a bit of sealant as well. better safe than sorry. plus will need to look into a better seal for the inspection cover as that will leak. predrill some holes in the flange of the riser as in the video you can see it burst the side on the first screw. great step by step but worth adding in a few points.
another great video from jason
Has to be the nicest guy on RUclips
Is there a video for rv , above ground septic tank and do I need a pump ?
Just wanted to have it emptied out every month or so .
Great video. One thing though. I wouldn't use WD-40. Its a solvent as well as a lubricant. Its not recommended for use on rubber products.
Yep. WD-40 stands for water displacement formula 40. Its original purpose was and is to provide a layer that ice would not stick to on rockets. The cryogenic oxygen tanks would cool the rocket's metal exterior such that ice would build on it. This was dangerous as it could potentially cause the rocket to have a structural failure on the launch pad. Not to mention that the extra weight would impede lift-off, and if the ice fell off in an unbalanced way during launch it could cause the rocket to uncontrollably veer off in a direction other than up. Or to punch holes in things that should not have holes in them.
Stainless steel through bolts with a flange on the inside, also a bead of silicone would not not be such a bad idea.
.
Another thing with the 90°fittings.
A few 1/4” holes on the top of the 90 will prevent a vapor lock and allow the water to flow freely.
Do you have a supply list and were to get
I have a house abroad that myself and my family have holidays in ive recently just built a bathroom and now need to build a septic tank. Im now without a job so skint and this is a great idea that i possibly will be doing. Just got to dig that damn hole 😂 thank you
Great comment. Thanks x
Awesome video topbloke.
Awesome video
I’d expect to see silastic to seal the flanges. Or plastic welding. Otherwise guaranteed to leak over time.
Great video Men would explain Thank-you
Thank you so much. We are retiring and want to by a yurt, this video is what I needed
just use a razor blade and a steady hand thats what i did.
Let me know how that goes I’m very interested
@@willscott174That is difficult to do a nice hole by hand, a bit dangerous as well, unless that tank is soft/thin plastic. 😋
@@BillyJoeJimBob28 Those IBC Totes are pretty soft and easy to cut through with a sharp blade. As long as you draw it out first and go slow its fine.
Great video !!
Thanks!
Do you have a US distributor?
I made one of these and the first good rain had the dirt collapse the side. Something has to be put around metal cage to keep water/dirt pressure off the thin plastic.
screening or drainage rock?
Fill it with water first
You must fill with water first
@@andrewdavis5404 water doesn't hold the side walls in from dirt collapsing. The water just flowed out the field line. It was full of water. But full because they'll float, not collapse.
I’m going to use plastic pallets around the outside as it’s surrounded by clay.
Where did u find lid n riser
Where can I get the flanges in the U.S.?
I'm on bedrock in northern New York so I can't bury it due to freezing temps i need to bury it can't afford to raise it any other solutions? composting would be difficult.
where did you get 110mm flanges. 100mm are easy to find
Mount the camode directly on top
thanks for your comment
Question, do you used pipe adhesive from the 90 degree elbows to the flanges? Whats to stop them from uncoupling? Thanks for the instruction cheers mate
The screws and a very tight rubber doughnut.
What keeps the baffmles from falling in?
Why isn't the inlet line a few inches higher than the drain line? This setup will just flood the inlet pipe before it has a chance to drain
This is an off grid system. Usually for the use of 2 people. The offset between the inlet and outlet doesn't need to be very much. Also, this system isn't for use of much Grey water, only black water. I build tiny homes and use these systems frequently. I don't know this man, but I've used his systems for 2 years now in off grid building. He has saved my customers thousands, and made me some coin at the same time. I have made some modifications of my own along the way, but everything works. Most of my systems are on large plots of land, deer leases, and small acreage that are unrestricted. This will not fly in restricted building locations that require permits. On larger septic applications, yes, the inlet and outlet pipes would need to be offset a bit more. Hope this helps.
Any videos on installation??
The inlet needs to be a minimum of 2-3" above the outlet, use either 4" pipe or 3" I wouldn't use anything smaller, repeat the process if you get more IBC's. No interior baffles are needed. I'm offgrid and would prefer the use of sanitary T's those elbows can clog and not always function properly. The outlet can run out to a leach field and you can have perforated pipes, cloth & rocks (it's a lot but if you do that to code it'll last for years). If for some reason you want to drain in let's say an old wash or something I'd recommend the use of a backflow flanged pipe. The last thing you need is a flood going into your system into the home. Just remember, these are meant to be "temporary." 😂😂 they don't have to be though! 😅 MERICA' 🇺🇸🖕JB
So, once i've made this, i would just connect my toilet to the inlet pipe I gather. And the outlet is connected to what? Would love to see it instslled and working before I commit to trying this out.
Sooo... what's next?... do we bury the tank? I thought two chambers were needed?
Im trying to do a tiny house i think thos will work great since i dont have lots of money
Thanks for the vid. @ :21 black gold? I searched for that and didn't come up with anything.
Thank you for this video, and yes goggles are very important!!!!
Where can I purchase the materials to build the diy septic tank from please
craigslist, Google then shop, he said he got some stuff on Ebay so everywhere even local.
Taking screws off to empty .Not to.swift . Use a pcv.valve
Great video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
how much waste would a system like this be good for? Im thinking about an off grid cabin and wondering if this would be suitable
The white one like that that I have for rainwater, holds 350 or 400 gallons.
Where can I get these parts?
Why not put the flanges in from the inside as the flanges have thicker points round the screw holes which will give a better fixing for the screws, or insert the screws from the inside?
Good Idea
This the National Geographic of IBC Septic Tanks.
I wonder if this is legal where I live
Uh...how do you empty it.?
This video is how to build a diy septic tank. ruclips.net/video/NLG19hP9kHg/видео.html
No glue on the 90 degree pipes to the flanges? Won't they fall off inside the tank?
That what I was wonder same thing
If yu can’t see it it didn’t happen
Soooo... is that supposed so be buried 🤔
Also wouldn't you want to put a short extension pipe going down in the tank, on the outward 90° fitting, to ensure it's just water (no solids) going out to drainfield?
It's pretty corrosive stuff, wouldn't stainless screws be better?
Could someone answer your phone or emails Jason ? been trying to order a cube and getting zero response. Have a word with your secretary .
Them seals are water tight. But them 20 screw wholes definitely are not. Maybe I'm missing something...
So this is just the solids tank? Or does it act as both?
Obviously used for both.
Hi, good instruction video.
I have 2 questions:
I am wondering if a small amount of gas can escape from the join of the riser to the tank, for safety reasons, can it be sealed and a small diameter pipe placed into the top perhaps at the corner?
2. Can tthese tanks be serial connected together with a section of straight pipe to reduce emptying frequency and to further purify the runoff water?
Each tank needs a vent pipe which has not been mentioned in the video. It does not matter where you position it as long as its above the fluid level. You could also link tanks together as you ask, but each pipe needs a baffle so water passes through under the level of the water. Each tank needs a vent pipe also.
I suggest a tee baffle instead of the elbow to prevent siphon effect which will mess the system soakaway down stream. I also recommend the gas to be safely harvested using pipe system and filter to ensure the biogas is usable and not contribute to climate change adverse effects. Use this for cooking needs
@@andrugawilliam8939 so you mean a T shape where the horizontal part is above the water to allow the air to enter but the vertical part of the T is how the water would flow into the tank below the water level?
What kind of filter for the gas?
Questions: How long before needing to pump for one off grid person? And.....who would pump this?
We have a company called Roto Rooter in the US that does this
Watch his other videos shouldn’t be emptying these
www.septictank.co.uk
how many gallons does this tank hold?
1000ltrs not sure in gallons obv depends on which gallon too
I'd want to see sealant and stainless steel screws. Roots can find a way through.
Roots are good for septic systems
If one could get that quality in the Philippines I would buy one or 2
Thanks for your comment.
Some of the hardware stores have them, no clue what they had been used for.
@@freddypatterson8653 1,500 black ones in the ph.
Goggles are for people that are down to one eye
Very nice but I'll take mine with two chambers
Thank you
So many questions 🫤
I had one of this buried in a ground.....WILL CRUSH !!! The pressure and weight of the dirt can't compare with the liquid inside the tank. BESIDE is square. A SPHERE septic tank has a better chance
Simple reinforcement before covering glad you mentioned it though will be reinforcing mine as well as sealant for extra protection
@@larrymcdonald1408 wrap with sheet metal?
Bradley Hooper at that point you’re spending as much on concrete to just do it right
if you add proper drainage 2 feet all around it should be fine no? weeping tile and draining rock
Where do I buy the parts?

I just saw one IBC tote that use to be a septic tank. The owner is now standing in nasty stuff to put in a new real 500 gallon small septic tank bcuz the IBC tote crushed under the dirt and stopped up the toilet in the house and overflowed. So the wife cleaned up inside & the man was up to his knees outside cleaning out the hole to haul out the IBC tote & haul in the tiny 500 gallon real septic tank.
Thank you for the information and knowledge ' we have in Islam, such as the zakat of science says, teaching it to people.
And benefit them because it benefits people and does not die with his The person and has a reward from God
What diameter is the top riser lid?
300mm
@@SepticTankTV thank you
Usa?
Yes. The USA to.
The tools have allready blown my budget.
🤣 luckily I have them but now I gotta figure out how to get that black tank
Ha ha ha
I feel you
Then you have to save for 2 more years, for the tank, before you can pee in the toilet. 🤣
Liquid hand soap will do the same thing
👍🇨🇦
Vapor lock.
This company is not operating, so please do not place any orders.
Bro didn’t seal the screws 😮
Nooooooooooooooooooo
Sure, septic tanks need ventilation, or the gases generated by bioconbustion can explode !!
Great video, but way too much nonsense talking. Anyone attempting this will obviously have basic tool knowledge. Skip the dumb stuff and give us the goods. But good info none the less
Dude, you sound like youre talking to a 6 year old. Just get on with it. We can see clearly.
I appreciate the video but your slightly painfully descriptive.
If you want more comments don’t wear your PPE and let hundreds of people correct you. And folks that’s how you make money on RUclips!
Oh my Gosh! 20 minutes to say a couple minutes worth of info, because 18 minutes of stuff like: "this is a drill, you operate the drill by squeezing the trigger, this is a drill bit" etc. ugggggggg.
I doubt your typical homeowner will take on a project like this. So the need to describe every single tool in detail and how it works makes your useful video really long.
Great point!
Englishman, at the second hole you forgot to put on your goggles. When I worked in your country, I lost my job because of that (the boss was an Irish drunk). I do not understand how you English make the most labor protection rules and even you do not respect them.
