Sanitation
Outdoor toilet distance to well and house
Poland
A fixed outdoor toilet with a cesspit follows the same sanitary siting rules as a cesspit tank; a portable chemical toilet follows the manufacturer and local waste rules.
Distances and rules
An outdoor toilet or cesspit is placed well away from any drinking-water source so that seepage cannot reach a well or borehole, and at a distance from dwellings — your own and the neighbour’s — for sanitary reasons and to keep odour away.
Fixed cesspit toilet
Use §34–36 cesspit distances and keep 15 m from a drinking-water well

Important limitation
This is a planning aid, not a legal opinion. Before construction, check the local land-use rules, easements, the network/utility operator’s requirements and neighbour buildings.
