Water supply of a summer residence, features of different schemes

For a city dweller, the dacha is a place for spending weekends and holidays, and the usual living conditions contribute to a full rest. Man, accustomed to a certain level of comfort, it is difficult to abandon them on vacation. The minimum set of amenities for modern housing is sustainable energy supply, heating, as well as water and sewerage. Sanitary norms provide for a daily intake of moisture for drinking and technical needs of up to 85 liters per day.

Water supply of a dacha or a country house is studied in preparation for the construction and is part of a set of design activities. The initial parameters for creating these engineering systems are as follows:

1. Living area, number and arrangement of rooms.
2. Estimated number of residents.
3. The area of the land plot and the possibility of using lawns and the like for watering.

Plumbing and other equipment is planned taking into account the needs of the owners, as well as the layout of the building and the site.

The main elements of the water supply scheme

There are two main types of systems: centralized and individual, as well as their combinations, when the water supply of the dacha is carried out from a common pipeline, and the drains merge into an autonomous sewage system (or other options). When organizing water supply from utility systems and discharging used liquid to a common collector, the connection is made in agreement with the relevant services.

An autonomous water supply scheme for the dacha provides for a source, most often a well (or well). The lifting of the liquid and its supply to the system is carried out mainly by electric pumps, either separately or as part of automatic stations. The water supply system includes cleaning filters, mixers, in the absence of hot water supply - heaters of flow or volume type. All equipment is connected with each other by pipelines.

Local water supply of the dacha is impossible without proper sewerage. The structure of this system includes vertical and horizontal collectors, which ensure the drainage of sewage into cesspools. The volume of such storage of impurities is calculated from the monthly consumption rate of 2.5 cubic meters. Per person. This structure must have a reliable waterproofing.

Innovative technology of wastewater treatment provides for the use of special sanitary equipment, which allows to remove hazardous contaminants and provide acceptable sanitary characteristics. This is a system with a closed cycle, at the output of which a liquid is obtained, which can be safely poured into open water.

Installation of water supply systems

Installation of equipment and installation of water supply at the dacha is associated with a large amount of excavation and in case of tie-in to a centralized network, and when building a local system. It will take two pits for the pumping station and cesspool, as well as trenches for laying pipelines. The depth should be sufficient to prevent freezing of water in the system.

Reliable water supply of the dacha requires quite a large investment and labor. It is necessary to envisage carrying out the whole complex of works even at the design stage , to exclude even a hint of the possibility of reworking the whole system or its individual elements. This approach guarantees a long operation of the water supply and sewerage system of a country house.
