Bashaw Concrete takes pride in producing a quality product. We have been building tanks for over 45 years. Tanks are poured all twelve months of the year in our facility here in Bashaw. We design and build our own septic tank forms so we have complete control over the design and function of the end product.
Our tanks have 3”-4” walls, a 4” bottom and cover lids are 3” thick. Each tank is reinforced with wire mesh, fiber mesh and rebar. They are poured with Type 50 sulfate resistant 5100 psi (34mPa) concrete and are CSA approved to a burial depth of 2 to 3 meters, depending on the model.
All tanks have a solid 3” thick cover lid. Keeping you and your family safe is important to us, therefore our cover lids have a recessed bottom so they cannot be moved or slid off by children or animals.
In our neck of the woods the men are not all 5’6” and 130 lbs, therefore our manhole extensions are 36” outside and 30” inside, to allow a regular size Alberta man, his ladder & his tools enough room to access inside the tank for servicing. On that note, PLEASE DO NOT ENTER ANY TANK WITHOUT THE PROPER SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND TRAINING.
Included with all tanks:
- 20 year Limited Replacement Warranty on materials and workmanship. * Customers are required to keep the Operation & Maintenance Manual as well as the original invoice as they may be needed to validate warranty
- 36” diameter concrete cover lid
- Constructed with a minimum of 5100 psi (34 mpa) Type 50 sulfate resistant concrete with steel reinforcement
- Inlet and outlets have 4” flexible fitting & ABS piping
- CSA Approved for a burial depth of 2.0 or 3.0 meters, depending on model (1110/1450 & 1675/2000 gallon models approved to 3 meters)
- Discharge options include going out the manhole or back wall of the tank with 1.5” or 2” S40 PVC piping (different discharge heights also available)
* Your installer will give you a copy of the Operation & Maintenance Manual with a warranty sheet completed and issued by us. If they do not, please contact us and we will send you one.

HOLDING TANKS - CALL FOR PRICES
Holding Tanks are used when a septic field is not allowed or not feasible. The tank needs to be emptied with a vacuum truck and fitted with a high level alarm.
Campsite Toilets 
Single, double and low odour are available. Campsite toilets use the top of the holding tank as the floor of the outhouse. We can customize them to suit your project’s needs.
