If you live on a semi rural or acreage property in Baulkham Hills or the surrounding Hills District, chances are you’re not connected to mains sewerage. That’s where an aerated septic system comes in and Swag Plumbing is here to help you understand how they work and why they’re a smart solution for your property.
What Is an Aerated Septic System?
An aerated wastewater treatment system (AWTS) is an advanced alternative to a traditional septic tank. It uses oxygen and natural processes to break down and treat household wastewater, making it safe to be reused for things like garden irrigation (subject to council approval and regulations).
Unlike older systems, AWTS includes multiple chambers and uses aeration pumps to promote faster, more efficient breakdown of waste.
We regularly install these systems as they provide so many benefits.
✅ Cleaner, more effective treatment of wastewater
✅ Environmentally friendly, treated water can often be reused
✅ Reduces odours and sludge build up
✅ Ideal for larger properties without access to mains sewer
✅ Council compliant when maintained properly
