Septic vs HSTP
Choosing the right sewage treatment systems Sunshine Coast depends on your property needs, council rules, and long-term goals. This simple comparison makes your choice easier.
Septic Tanks
These provide only primary treatment and use older technology. They often struggle to meet modern environmental standards.
Home Sewage Treatment Plants (HSTPs)
These systems process wastewater to a quality safe for irrigation use. They are designed to meet current eco-compliance requirements.
If your existing septic can’t meet council requirements, you’re planning to subdivide, or want a greener, water-recycling solution, an HSTP is the smarter choice.

Electrical or Fuse Problems

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a septic tank and an HSTP?
An HSTP treats wastewater to a much higher standard than a basic septic tank. It produces water clean enough for surface or subsurface irrigation. This makes it more eco-friendly and better suited to meeting council regulations. Many new builds now require an HSTP for approval.
Do I need a council permit to install an HSTP?
Yes, you will need council approval before installing an HSTP. We make this part easy by handling all the paperwork for you. Our team prepares and submits plans so you stay compliant without the stress.
How often does an HSTP need servicing?
Most systems need servicing every 3 to 6 months, depending on your council rules and system type. Regular HSTP servicing keeps everything running safely and prevents costly issues. We offer flexible plans to suit your needs.
Can you take over servicing from another provider?
Yes, we can switch you over with no hassle. Our HSTP Sunshine Coast team will inspect your current system to make sure everything is up to standard. Then we can take over regular servicing so you have one less thing to worry about.
