3000L Low Profile Underground Septic Tank with Partition
When your property isn't on mains sewer, the septic tank is the workhorse the whole system leans on. The RapidPlas 3,000L Underground Septic Tank is our own poly design — a tough, self-anchoring alternative to concrete that goes in without a poured anchor slab, built in Tamworth and certified to AS/NZS 1546.1. Its internal partition treats wastewater in two stages before it moves through to your absorption trench, and it's sized to suit households of one to five people. Key Features 3,000L capacity, sized for 1–5 people — the right fit for a typical household off mains sewer. Certified to AS/NZS 1546.1 — meets the Australian Standard councils require for an onsite septic tank. Self-anchoring design — no concrete anchor slab to pour, which keeps the install quicker and simpler. Internal partition — a two-chamber design that settles and clarifies wastewater in two stages, sending cleaner effluent through to your trench and helping protect it from solids. Tough poly construction — won't corrode, crack or rust out underground the way concrete can over the years. Factory-fitted inlet and outlet, lifting lugs and feet — set up to be lowered in cleanly, sit level, and connect with less fuss on site. 10-year manufacturer's warranty — backed by RapidPlas. Ideal For Rural, semi-rural and lifestyle properties beyond mains sewer. Households of one to five people. New builds, or replacing a tired concrete or failing septic tank. A note on installation Septic tanks must be installed by a licensed plumber and approved by your local council to meet the relevant Australian Standards. Trench and absorption sizing depends on your soil and site, assessed by a site and soil engineer. The standard lid is rated for pedestrian areas — if you're installing under a driveway or anywhere vehicles travel, talk to us first about a rated lid.
