Garden office and sewage treatment system

robdonn · 2023-04-06 22:04:29

I currently have an old garage at the end of my garden that I want to knock down and build a garden office. The problem I have is that my sewage treatment system is quite close to the garage. I saw on tanks.ie that a septic tank must be at least 7 metres from a house, but would this apply to a garden office too?

Not entirely sure but I think there is guidance of 4m from a building (non-habitable) or a wall for a septic tank and 10m - 15m for a drainage field.
