Septic tank distance to house, well and boundary
Turquía
National minimum: ≥2 m from house walls, ≥1.5 m from a well; the boundary distance is set by the local zoning plan.
Distancias y normas
A septic tank is placed at a distance from the house — so it does not undermine the foundation and odour does not reach the windows — and well away from any drinking-water source, since leaks can contaminate a well or borehole. A setback from the boundary is also kept so the tank stays accessible for servicing and pumping.
To house walls
At least 2 m
