Before I can back fill though the tanks have to be filled up and as we are on a water meter the thought of pumping in litres of water at 64 euros per 1000 litres was not one I relish. Therefore we have pumped water from the well which has halve filled the 3000 litre tank. Now the well needs to refill. So I have now rigged up a couple of system to get the rain water directed into the tanks to finish the job. I don't really want it to rain at the moment but when it does I'm hopefully ready.
The next stage is to put in all the pipe work to and for the filtration beds with all the required gravel and sand. So loads of wheelbarrowing for the next few days. Jolly dee! So I'm hoping by the time I've finished the this the tanks will be full and ready to back fill.
Gosh you've been so busy. Lots of work involved in septic tanks then!! Thank goodness ours was already in and running when we moved in.
