What are the distances to respect in France?

This standard was introduced to prevent all dysfunction of wastewater treatment and avoid all problems when the system is running.

This is all the distances to respect for an individual treatment system:

  • The system must be installed at least 5 meters away from any construction.
  • Must be installed at least 3 meters away from the property limit.
  • Keep the plants and trees 3 meters away from the system.
  • If the property has a well or any water collection system, it must be at a minimal distance of 35 meters of the wastewater treatment system.
  • The system must be installed 5 meters away of any area where a vehicle can be parked.

 

The distance can be reduced in some cases, but this case must be justified. The best is to ask a consultancy office or “Bureau d’étude” in French to find a more suitable solution for each situation.

For more information about distances, you can read the standard DTU 64.1. It is the technical document of reference for all professionals.

 

Is it possible to derogate from this rule?

Although these minimum distances to be maintained are legal and must be scrupulously respected, there is still derogation from the rule. In fact, in some cases, the non-respect of distances can be allowed. Nevertheless, this tolerance is limited, and the owner must justify his intention to not maintain the usual distances. For example, we can justify the presence of a system which produces drinkable water for less than 35 meters of a well. Other distances can be justified as in the preceding example. To avoid non-compliance, the best is to contact an organisation as the SPANC which can advise you. Likewise, it is strongly recommended to entrust all installation or rehabilitation work to professionals.

Install a Tricel micro-station by yourself: the ten-year guarantee

Calling on our partners is, therefore, a guarantee of peace of mind. Indeed, our technical teams have worked on various non-collective and semi-collective sanitation sites as part of multiple projects: rehabilitation of farms, creation of guest rooms, construction of new houses, upgrading to high school standards, ports, etc.

The product guarantees will also be maintained at 100% if you call on our local technicians to commission your sanitation.
If you want to install your septic tank yourself, you must take note of the following.

Warranties on Tricel products are maintained only if the installation:

  • Sector study with soil analysis
  • The installation conditions of the structure comply with the user manual
  • Commissioning by an authorized Tricel technician
  • Validation of the installation by the SPANC
  • The conditions of use of the book comply with the user manual.

Warning

Please note that you must imperatively declare your installation to your insurance to subscribe yourself to the ten-year guarantee. Indeed, suppose you sell your house before the tenth year of your installation, and a disaster occurs. In that case, you will be held personally responsible.

This warranty applies to work which is the work itself as defined in article 1792 of law n°78-12 of January 4, 1978, effective January 1, 1979 – Spinetta Law.

« Any builder of a structure is automatically liable, towards the owner or the purchaser of the structure, for damage, even resulting from a defect in the ground, which compromises the solidity of the structure or which, affecting in one of its constituent elements or one of its items of equipment, make it unfit for its intended purpose. Such liability does not arise if the manufacturer proves that the damage comes from an extraneous cause. »
