Are you looking for a lightweight septic or holding tank that will stand up to harsh conditions and last for the life of your home or cottage? You may be looking at plastic and fibreglass and wondering which will give you more value for your money.
Fibreglass was once considered a good option for septic tanks, but experts now know that unlike plastic, fibreglass will dry out and become quite fragile. And once a single crack forms, you have no choice but to replace the tank.
The other lightweight option, plastic polyethylene, gives you all the advantages of fibreglass with none of the negatives. These tanks won’t crack, won’t corrode, and are as strong as tanks made of much heavier materials. Here are a few more reasons why polyethylene is superior to fiberglass.
You won’t need heavy equipment to install these tanks. When you buy a plastic septic tank, you can move it into place with just two people. And if you need to install the tank in a more inaccessible location, you won’t need big trucks or special lifting equipment. Polyethylene tanks, manholes and covers are extremely rugged and durable allowing you to push, pull or drag them in place and not have to worry about cracking anything while you do. Unlike fibreglass with brittle manholes and covers.
Plastic tanks last for years and years with little maintenance. Are you looking for a septic tank solution that won’t require a lot of time and money to maintain? Polyethylene tanks never rust, never corrode, and won’t deteriorate when exposed to sewage gases. The plastic material is non-porous, so any underground root systems won’t penetrate or crack the tanks.
