Sewer drainage is likely something you are familiar with. Sewer drainage is the collection of underground piping that carries all the waste and sewage from your home or office to a treatment plant to be treated before being discharged into our waterways.

Sewage is wastewater from homes, offices, factories and other areas - basically, any water that has been touched by humans. This includes wastewater from your dishwasher, toilet, kitchen sink, bathtub, washing machine and shower (among others). It is interesting to note that sewage is actually 99.8% water!

Re-connect the storage tank to the system, turn the mains in-feed supply back on and allow about 1 hour for the tank to re-fill. If the air charge is quickly lost again then either the tank has failed or the air valve is faulty and needs replacing. If water comes out the air valve the tank has failed internally and needs replacing.

What flows down the drain! The effluent that flows through a sewer drain is from your home, whereas stormwater drains direct rainwater that runs from a particular area, or areas, after rain. Additionally, unlike sewage, stormwater is generally not treated before being discharged to waterways and the sea therefore the contents of the drains are sent to different places.

It may seem like an odd question, but knowing the difference between sewer and stormwater drainage is an important distinction to make for more than one reason. With a huge emphasis on sustainability and eco-friendly options, knowing what is heading down the drain is an important step in helping the environment (and also ensures the plumbing in your home and office has as few issues as possible). We have therefore put together a little bit of information to help you determine which is which, as well as what the major differences are between a sewer and stormwater drain.

The ideal pressure for a completely empty storage tank is 6 to 7 psi (45kpa) air pressure but because most air pressure gauges don't go down that low pressurise past the 10psi mark and then bleed off excess pressure back to 10psi or slightly less and leave it at that.

Pressurising the storage tank can also be done without disconnecting the tank. Turn the in-feed mains supply off, open the faucet and the storage tank ball valve and run all water pressure out via the faucet. Start putting in the air via the air valve and pressurise as per below.

Special note, the air valve on these storage tanks is set lower into the valve than a car tyre valve so be sure you have pushed the pump valve connector on far enough.

You can tell when the storage tank needs some more air when the volume of water delivered quickly is not very much and when you have run it out the storage tank is still heavy then the storage tank air charge needs topping up.

Stormwater drainage is exactly as it sounds - piping that carries stormwater from one place to another. Stormwater drains have stormwater flowing through them, which is water that has drained off a particular site during or following rain. The rain that falls on roofs, roads, driveways, footpaths and land areas flows into stormwater drains, as well as soil, organic matter, litter, fertilisers from gardens and oil residues from driveways.

Turn your reverse osmosis system mains water in-feed water supply off, turn the ball valve on the top of the storage tank off and disconnect the tubing that supplies water to and from the storage tank.

Sewerage is what sewage runs through - the pipes, treatment facilities and pumping stations that both collect and treat sewage. It is also what can get blocked!

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, effluent is ‘liquid waste or sewage discharged into a river or the sea’. Effluent is the water and other waste particles that flow through the drains in our community and out into our waterways.

Sewer and stormwater systems are separate from each other, as they are utilised in different ways to carry effluent from different starting points to final destinations.

Due to the large volume of air a bicycle air pump will tank a long time to pump up the air so a compressor or car type pump is more suitable.

Take the tank outside and open the tank ball valve to release any water pressure that is there. With the water valve in the open position start to put compressed (pump) air into the air valve, some water may come out as this is done, if so continue putting in the air gently until no further water is expelled from the tank ball valve.
