This is a duplicate of the review on Cannes Ultra left on the online forum.
I set myself in March 2023. Cannes Ultra 5. At first there were a lot of doubts, I dug through a bunch of different options, and consulted with my brother and several friends who have VOC installed (a local sewage treatment plant). It is pointless to advise something without knowing the whole picture, there will be a decision in each individual case.
My input data was such that the house stands at the lowest point on the slope, there is a refractory clay under the house. It took me a long time to decide where I would put the sewage water!, so I needed a station with the maximum level of wastewater treatment. Of course, there was no guarantee that Cannes Ultra would clean the drains according to the declared characteristics. The Internet is full of videos "reviews of happy owners", installation of these systems, etc., but also full of videos about how similar "LOS" stink
Already at the stage of communication with the manager, I realized that the company is solid, they told everything in detail, offered to install turnkey. I made some adjustments, namely, I wanted not their mini-excavator to work, but a local familiar excavator, it turned out to be cheaper, and I did additional work on the layout of the site at the same time. The installers arrived at the appointed time, everything was professionally installed and mounted, explained how to clean and "Some nuances" of such a plan:
- that the compressor should work 24/7;
- that air should flow under the green covers, and that it is better to install them centimeters (10min.) above ground level! I was only worried about the winter period, when they could be flooded with snow, they were still flooded, and swept away - I had to build a slate protection, in the future I plan to make a decorative mill and a house above these hatches, in which there will be many holes for ventilation, but also protection from snow blockages.
- that you can not drive a car closer than 1 meter from the station (I think this is with a margin)
- signed the contract, the transfer acceptance certificate, filled out the warranty, issued the technical passport and instructions, everything is packed in a branded folder - Beauty!
So, what can I say after more than a year of operation (2 adults + 2 children, we live only on weekends, all year round):
1) The station works quietly, it is barely audible at a distance of one meter from it!! This is both a plus and a minus. Let me explain - if the compressor fails, it is unlikely that it will be possible to fix the breakdown promptly, and I am afraid to imagine what can happen to the drains if they stop aerating!!!
2) The drain from my Sewer flows by gravity into a concrete well, in which there is a drainage pump and pumps the purified water far away into the "sand", where I have another well in which these drains are safely absorbed. So the drain absolutely does not smell!!! Of course, I did not dare to throw it on the ground, but now I understand that this option is quite acceptable, given the absence of odors.
3) Well, the most important thing is the device that you installed and forgot!!! (at least for a year, until you need to pump out the sludge, by the way, I haven't pumped it out yet, although we don't live all the time, but on weekends)
This year, constantly passing by the station, I catch myself thinking that I'm listening, "is the compressor dead", I look in turn: first into the receiving well, "I sniff", inspect the drainpipe, then look into the suction well, check if it is silting up ..., no, everything is fine, you can sleep peacefully.
In general, what is the result - Kann ultra can be installed, LOS works as stated. Everything suits me!
This is not an advertisement, but a real review! It's nice to write a good review of a company that makes both a good product and a great service, there are few of them now!
A serious organization. High-quality septic tanks are probably the best on the Belarusian market.
We turned to them for a cleaning station. The station was manufactured in a week, installation and connection to the house were carried out in a day. The excess soil was removed, the site was leveled. Special thanks to Andrey, the engineer of the Cannes Project.
