Help with Settling Tank

(1/5) > >>

Maxie:
Anybody have and good ideas for making a settling tank.
I'd like to make one and am thinking about how to make it easy and clean to use.

Wildcard:
I had an idea of setting up a second pass through storage tank after a settling tank, that my pressure washer would pump water from for reclaiming. Using fresh water for all other washout tasks. Seems like a good option to recycle water...

Hey Moose, ours clogged our p-trap the other day.  We think we were washing too much plastisol down the drain.

Binkspot:
I have a box under the wash out with a windows screen over the top that collects the big stuff. When it gets dirty I toss it and put new screen in it. That is pumped into a open top drum, I have a drain from the top of the first into a second which drains into a third. The third one has 2 micron filter bags the water passes through before being pumped into the slop sink. The second pump can be eliminated if you can get the whole thing above the drain and let gravity work its magic.
