decisions in an off-mains wastewater project. The system must be large enough to treat the expected wastewater load, but it also needs to match the property type, site conditions, discharge route and planning requirements.<\/p><p class=\"lede\">In Ireland, domestic wastewater treatment systems serving single houses are assessed under the EPA\u00a0<strong>Code of Practice for Domestic Waste Water Treatment Systems (Population Equivalent \u2264 10)<\/strong>.

Compliance with the Code is required under the building and planning control systems, so the PE figure is not just a design convenience. It determines the system capacity a planning application must demonstrate.<\/p><h3>Why bedrooms, not occupants<\/h3><p>The Code sets the design wastewater load from the\u00a0<strong>maximum population that can inhabit the premises<\/strong>, which is derived from the number of bedrooms rather than the number of people living there today. A house can be sold, extended or occupied more heavily in future, so the system must be sized for the property, not the current household. The bedroom-to-PE figures are shown in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.claudeusercontent.com\/?domain=claude.ai&amp;parentOrigin=https%3A%2F%2Fclaude.ai&amp;errorReportingMode=parent&amp;formattedSpreadsheets=true&amp;routeHandlerPdf=true#quick-answer\">quick answer table<\/a>\u00a0at the top of this page. Note that the Code groups one-bedroom and two-bedroom houses together, so both are assessed as 4 PE.<\/p><h3>How the daily design load is calculated<\/h3><p>Two figures sit behind every PE calculation in the Code:<\/p><ul class=\"checks\"><li><strong>Hydraulic load:<\/strong>\u00a0a typical daily loading of 150 litres per person per day is used for all domestic wastewater treatment systems, covering both septic tanks and secondary or tertiary systems.<\/li><li><strong>Organic load:<\/strong>\u00a01 PE represents a five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) of 60 g of oxygen per day, as covered in the PE definition above.<\/li><\/ul><p>Multiplying these by the design PE gives the load the system must handle. A four-bedroom house assessed at 6 PE therefore has a design hydraulic load of 900 litres per day (6 \u00d7 150 litres) and a design organic load of 360 g BOD5 per day (6 \u00d7 60 g). These are the figures a treatment plant or septic tank must be certified to treat, which is why the declared capacity of the installed system must be no less than the calculated design capacity.<\/p><h3>What the Code of Practice covers<\/h3><p>Beyond the PE calculation, the 2021 Code sets out the full methodology a site assessor follows:<\/p><ul class=\"checks\"><li>site characterisation, including the desk study, visual assessment, trial hole and percolation testing;<\/li><li>selection of the appropriate treatment system and discharge route for the site conditions;<\/li><li>installation requirements for the chosen system;<\/li><li>operation and maintenance, including desludging guidance.<\/li><\/ul><p>The 2021 Code applies to site assessments and installations carried out on or after 7 June 2021. The 2009 Code may still be used only where the assessment and installation commenced before that date, or where planning permission was applied for before it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cde096b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"cde096b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e365360 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e365360\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong><span style=\"color: #2a5b3f;\">Example : <\/span><\/strong>a four-bedroom house is normally assessed as\u00a06 PE.

Depending on the site and required treatment type, a Tricel Novo IE6 or IE6+ may be considered.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What does 6 PE mean?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"6 PE means the wastewater system is designed for a population equivalent of six people. PE is a wastewater load measure, not just a count of the current occupants.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is PE the same as the number of people living in the house?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No. PE is a design figure used to size the wastewater system. For single houses, it is normally based on the number of bedrooms so that the system allows for expected occupancy over time.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Can I install a larger sewage treatment plant than required?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Not always. A plant that is too large may not receive enough regular wastewater load to perform as designed. The system should be matched to the calculated PE and confirmed against the site assessment.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is the difference between a septic tank and a sewage treatment plant?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"A septic tank provides primary treatment and relies on a suitable disposal or further treatment system. A sewage treatment plant provides secondary biological treatment before discharge to a suitable discharge area.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What size septic tank do I need?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"For Tricel Vento, the listed septic tank options are 6 PE, 12 PE and 20 PE. The correct model depends on the design population and the site assessor\\u2019s recommendation.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What if my project is over 50 PE?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Projects over 50 PE should be assessed as commercial wastewater treatment projects. Tricel Maxus is the relevant Tricel range for 50+ PE applications.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Do I need a site assessment before choosing the system?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes. A site assessment is needed to confirm whether the proposed wastewater treatment and discharge route is suitable for the site.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is this guide for Ireland or Northern Ireland?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"This page is primarily for Ireland and references the EPA Code of Practice.
