Best Septic Tanks Melbourne Near Me

4worldlovers:
Bayswater Septic Tanks is a small, owner operated business, established in 1958.

4worldlovers: Septic tanks are a cost effective septic solution for residential waste water treatment. With low maintenance requirements and often no need for pumps, they’re ideal for remote and rural households. However, the quality of the final liquid waste is poor. Generally you will only be allowed to install one of these if your land is greater than 2.5 acres and is without dams or nearby waterways.

AWTS is used for the treatment of wastewater through various treatment ‘chambers’ which are attached to an irrigation system. The wastewater is treated by bacteria in the presence of oxygen. Oxygen increases bacterial activity and the bacteria break down the nutrients in the effluent. The water is disinfected to further reduce the pathogen levels and used for irrigation.

The cost of a residential general service costs between $110 – $125, depending on the location of your property.

Pay once, annually. Includes four services – one service every three months. Payment methods available: Cheque, Bank transfer or Credit Card

Pay on completion of each service. We will service your system every three months, ongoing until you tell us to stop! Payment methods available: Credit Card only for this option.

Some materials simply MUST NOT enter your system, as they will kill off the good bugs that digest the organic matter in the wastewater of your treatment system. These include:

Solid materials such as paper, plastic, sanitary napkins, tampons, condoms, nappies or baby wipes

^ Some strong medications, such as blood pressure tablets, chemotherapy and antibiotics, can destroy the natural processes of a wastewater treatment system. These systems may require more regular pump outs and/or maintenance.

If any of the materials listed above enter your system, please contact SSA for advice on what action you may be required to take.

All modern wastewater treatment systems are designed to treat both the grey and black water from your home or business.


To enhance the performance of your system, to maximise its service life and to save money on repairs, please find a guide below on how to best care for your system.


Ensure your system is properly maintained with regular servicing and pump outs

Use low-phosphorus or phosphorus-free detergents. Phosphorus is a major pollutant of waterways and contributes to the growth of algal blooms.

Use natural or alternative cleaners such as bicarbonate of soda, pure soap, borax, vinegar, lemon juice, cloudy ammonia, where possible

Avoid shock loads of wastewater entering your system (e.g. several loads of washing in quick succession or a large number of people at a party)

Ensure your system is serviced regularly (every 3 months for homes and most businesses)

Ensure you system is pumped out regularly (typically every 3 years for most homes and each business will have different pump out requirements).

Details on the general performance of the system; and Recommendations on what the home owner can do to improve the function of the system, including pump out/desludge requirements. What do I need to do in between services to care for my system? There are important things you MUST do to care for your system in between services. These include:

Clean your irrigation filter (as per manufacturer’s recommendations): This ensures the system is able to discharge the effluent to your irrigation system. It also prolongs the life of your submersible pump.

Be careful about what household cleaning products you use as these can really affect the performance of your system. For more information, refer to the following questions.

It is important that you choose an accredited service technician to perform the servicing of your wastewater treatment plant.

Servicing should take place every three months and should include (at a minimum):

Check sludge and scum levels in the primary septic tank (if lids are exposed)
