A treatment plant itself does not typically cause odour issues. However, sudden changes in the system’s environment, such as increased flows or the use of different cleaning products, can lead to smells generated by the treatment process. To prevent odours from entering the house, it’s important to have proper ventilation and water traps installed in the discharge pipes of sinks and showers. Consistency in the use of cleaning products and maintaining a stable environment in the treatment plant helps keep the biological process balanced and odour-free. Implementing effective ventilation systems and directing foul air away from living areas is essential. Proper design and installation of the wastewater treatment system can prevent odour-related disturbances for homeowners.
