A strong and durable sewer element

Easy sewage system cleaning? Quick reaction to malfunctions and getting rid of any issues, anytime? None of those will be a problem if you install a strong and durable manhole.

A manhole is an important element, especially for a gravity sewerage. It allows for a proper sewer utilization. An incorrectly fitted manhole or its lack might prevent you from using the sewage system.

Safety is the priority!

Regular maintenance of the sewer system is a basic measure that will help you keep it in good condition. Implementation of multiple inspection chambers will help you remove any potential blockages. Remember that they could lead to a serious malfunction, which is easy to prevent. A manhole is the easiest and also the cheapest solution which provides an easy access to the installation.

More than you expect

The manhole has been manufactured from the most reliable materials, hence it's the best offer on the market. By choosing this element, you get a guarantee of long-lasting durability. You don't have to worry about harmful chemicals and biological agents that flow through the sewer system.

Each manhole is compatible with all standards and norms defined for this type of equipment. Using them is completely safe.

Easy to install - simple to use

The simple structure of every Millto manhole also determined its easy installation. The element has been constructed in such a way that anyone should be able to install it, without any experience in that matter. It's very straightforward - just like the utilization of the element.

A manhole is used whenever the sewage system needs to be cleaned or in case a malfunction requires immediate attention. It's simple to use - one just needs to remove the cover. The element also allows for easy control. You can check anytime if the system works properly. It's a major advantage of an inspection chamber.

One product - many possibilities

Although a manhole is primarily used for sewage systems, the product has a lot of possibilities. It can be used in a domestic sewage system, as well as in a storm water drainage. The manhole is compatible with all installations that function outside the building. The high quality of material and resistance to weather conditions makes the inspection chamber a long-time investment.

What is a manhole?

A manhole is one of the most basic elements used in modern sewer systems. Sometimes it is called an inspection chamber or an access chamber. Depending on the type, manholes can be used in various areas. In each case they are the key elements of the whole system.

What is the purpose of an inspection chamber?

As the name indicates, an inspection chamber is used for inspection - it’s simply a hole that allows for the sewer system control. An easy access to sewer pipes enables their easier cleaning, and in case of a malfunction one can react swiftly and eliminate the problem without the need to shut the whole system down.

Manhole types available on the market

Manholes are distinguished mostly by the type of material they are made of. With regards to this factor, one can separate three primary groups, known as a classification by weight. Based upon this, manholes can be:

  • heavy - produced mostly from concrete mixtures,
  • medium - made of cement and composite materials or ductile cast iron,
  • light - made from thermoplastic resin, mostly polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP).

There are also tin-plate inspection chambers, although they are hardly manufactured anymore. In this case the material is classified as “light.”

Furthermore, there are also manholes with body made from one material and the cover from another.

A manhole - what is it made from?

A manhole is a product that consists of two elements. The structure is very simple. The main part (body) looks like a short pipe. Its shape can be compared to a cup. The second component is a cover. It conceals the chamber and protects it from contamination.

The high quality of the materials used for a manhole construction directly impacts its durability. The elements are resistant to mechanical damage and other harmful factors. The inspection chamber can be installed also in spots of higher risk from negative weather conditions like rain, snow, low and high temperatures and exposure to sun.

Every sewer manhole is resistant to physical damage. They aren’t prone to cracks or deformation - provided that they are used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

Does the diameter of a manhole matter?

Manufacturers provide various manholes with different diameters. The choice of a particular size depends on many factors - mostly on the location and the construction of the whole sewer system.

If you have no experience in this field, you can ask a professional for advice before making a decision.

How a manhole is installed?

Before installing an inspection chamber, take a look at several important aspects. One of the most crucial issues is the choice of location. As most sewer specialists claim, an easy access is a major factor. A manhole cannot be located in a dip or a high traffic spot. Furthermore, one should specially analyze the terrain in terms of water accumulation.

During the process of installation, you should respect all the rules and suggestions included in the manufacturer’s instruction.

Are manholes expensive?

The cost of a manhole depends mostly on factors like material and size. Models made of plastic materials - the aforementioned polypropylene or polyethylene are definitely the cheapest ones. A cast iron and concrete inspection chamber is a more expensive investment - but it also depends on the size. Keep in mind that a higher price very often means a better quality of a product. In other words, this type of a manhole will serve much longer than its cheaper counterparts.

How to conceal a manhole in the garden?

An outside manhole is the basic element on properties with gravity sewerage. An inspection chamber is also a component of rain and water systems. Although usually it is quite small, many homeowners wonder how to conceal a manhole in the garden. The easiest way involves putting a decorative element on it. It can be a flower pot or a garden figurine. If needed, such an element can be quickly removed so that the manhole is ready to use.
