Hello!

Our house planning is already quite advanced. We are basically just about to submit the building permit / planning permission application.

Now a question about wastewater. We have a pressurized sewer system that requires a suitable pump. Our development conditions specify at least the Jung MultiCut 20/2 M Plus.

Is it any good? After all, it has only one pump. What do I do if it fails?
Can you recommend others that are not way over budget (more than 2800)?

We also need a lifting station. Normally, this is not part of the building permit / planning permission application, except for a rough layout of the pipes. It’s interesting that a specific system is required.

I spent some time researching what is available and how much it costs. The problem is that the regulations set clear requirements for efficiency, meaning you can’t just install a high-end system if a more basic one is sufficient.

The specifications are usually calculated precisely, based on the length of the pipe and the height difference that must be overcome. We will also choose a fail-safe system, essentially a dual lifting station with two pumps. According to our architect, this will be installed within the floor slab. Although I would have preferred it outside, we’ll see.

😀 😀 I was thinking of a wastewater heat pump... what a concept, even if it’s a bit unpleasant.

So, we are allowed to build in the Mercedes areas as well. We even have it in writing. The minimum dimension is just the basic requirement.

Now I can visit 10 heating contractors and receive 9 different pump recommendations. Therefore, I would like to gather some experiences in advance.

I hardly think you’ll get much experience there. Either the system pumps properly, or you’re out of luck 😎

I would recommend going to a reputable heating engineer who can calculate exactly what you need according to DIN EN 12050.
They will likely suggest one or two systems for you.
I believe, as with heating systems in general, it’s important to find someone who really understands the technology. I wouldn’t want that thing to struggle or perform poorly. 🙂
