Rainwater tanks and septic tanks

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Boralit is a company specializing in polyethylene rotational moulding, offering over 250 certified systems for wastewater treatment and rainwater collection. They are recognized for high-quality products and hold several quality certificates.
Septic and Rainwater Tanks
Boralit provides tanks suitable for various environments, available in round and rectangular shapes. Options include risers, covers, and coupling sets for rainwater tanks.
Rainwater Buffering
This system manages excess rainwater by gradually releasing it into sewers or streams. It includes a tank with a floater and airlift, capable of pumping about 9 liters per minute. The buffering volume is customized based on customer needs and expected rainfall.
Septic Tanks
Designed to handle different types of wastewater, septic tanks liquefy solids and use anaerobic bacteria for waste breakdown. They require at least 5 days of retention time and must be large enough to prevent direct outflow of incoming liquids.
Rainwater Recycling
Boralit offers cylindrical tanks for rainwater recycling, designed to efficiently collect and reuse rainwater. Systems include options for fully-automatic pump units and various pumps like Comet 905 and Aspri 15-3.
Rainwater Filters
Filters are designed to be installed in consolidated sand, available in basic and auto-cleaning types. The RWF50ZR auto-cleaning filter has a 90% capture rate and is suitable for roof surfaces up to 400m².
Grease Traps
Grease traps separate grease from wastewater to prevent pipe clogging, available in models with capacities of 300 and 500 liters. They work by allowing grease to float and solidify, with a baffle preventing grease discharge.
Installation, Maintenance, and Warranty
Installation guidelines emphasize proper placement and preparation of the pit with consolidated sand. Regular cleaning of septic and rainwater tanks is necessary, with septic tanks requiring annual cleaning. Boralit offers a 50-year warranty on tank products against manufacturing faults, contingent on adherence to installation guidelines.
Contact Information
Contact details for various departments within Boralit, including sales, logistics, and accounting, are provided.
