The Separate Sewer System Without Automatic Flush Tanks
So far as the author is aware, this statement remains unchallenged in the literature on this subject up to the present time. It was held that unless a system of sewers excluding storm water was flushed by the artificial introduction of water at frequent intervals, stoppages would most assuredly occur, and to such an extent as to greatly impair, if not entirely vitiate, the usefulness of such a system. The supposed necessity for frequent flushing speedily brought into existence a number of excellent devices for automatically discharging the contents of storage tanks or cisterns when filled to a certain level, and thus it is possible to regulate the periods of flushing by limiting the streams by which the tanks are fed.
