What are the benefits of ordering precast concrete products in the West Kootenay?

In business since 1972, Tri-Kon Precast Concrete Products has professionals with extensive knowledge on the benefits of concrete. Here’s a brief overview of points to consider:

Little-to-no maintenance: Unlike traditional building materials like wood, brick or stone, concrete is resistant to weather, temperature fluctuations and insects. Concrete is able to withstand the sweltering heat of summer and the frigid cold of a Canadian winter without damage. A concrete product will last for decades compared to years for other materials.

Durability: Because precast concrete is formed in moulds, it can be easily reinforced with steel for added strength and durability. Components are manufactured and cured in a controlled environment to ensure a quality product.

Faster and easier installation: For products such as retaining walls, the bricks are precast and interlocking, which means you require less equipment and time to install.

A variety of styles: Precast concrete products are available in a wide range of styles, sizes and finishes to suit a variety of applications.

What are the advantages of a precast concrete septic tank?

Need to install or repair a septic tank in the West Kootenay? Nobody wants to deal with the issues a failing septic system can bring. The experts at Tri-Kon Precast Concrete products explain that a concrete septic tank is a far superior alternative to the plastic version. Read on to find out why:

Extremely durable: Concrete septic tanks are far more durable than their plastic counterparts.

Resistant to environmental effects: Because of the natural strength and temperature resistance of the material, a septic tank made of concrete will not be affected by tree roots or changing soil conditions. They will also not be crushed or damaged by a vehicle driving over them.

Low maintenance: Because they’re so resilient, concrete septic tanks don’t require as much maintenance as the plastic version.

Long-lasting: With proper maintenance and regular draining, a concrete septic tank will last as long as 40 years.

I’m installing a new septic tank in the West Kootenay: What should I know about septic tank sizes?

It’s vital to choose the correct size of septic tank for your needs. At Tri-Kon Precast Concrete Products, we offer a variety of different sizes of concrete tanks for sale and installation.

You’ll want to consider several factors when choosing the correct size of a septic tank: the square footage of your home, the number of bedrooms and the average number of occupants. If you choose a tank that is too big, the system may not work properly and efficiently. Choose too small of a tank and you’ll have quite the mess on your hands!

Here’s a general guideline of the most common sizes of tanks, depending on your need:

• 600-gallon septic tank: suitable for a small two-bedroom rural home

• 1,000-gallon septic tank: this is the most common sized septic tank and will comfortably meet the needs of most households; suitable for a typical four-bedroom home or as an expansion to an existing system

• 1,500-gallon septic tank: suitable for a large six-bedroom home

At Tri-Kon Precast Concrete Products, we can manufacture septic tanks up to 5,000 gallons. Contact us to discuss your needs.
