Hello everyone,
we are currently looking for a plot of land and have one in mind. However, the house’s location on the plot would be about 1.5 m (5 feet) below street level and would require the installation of a professional sewage lifting system. At least for the ground floor, as no basement is planned. On the ground floor, there will be a toilet, washing machine, and kitchen. The system would need to handle that. The bathroom with shower and bathtub would be on the first floor, more than one meter above street level.
Question: Do these systems generally cause problems? What about blockages? Odor issues? Noise? Is a budget of 1500–2000 € sufficient for a good system? How complex is the maintenance or similar? What are the approximate electricity costs for a household of two people?
Thanks in advance for your answers. Good luck Erin
