Lift Stations

  • A lift station is used in wastewater systems to pump sewage or wastewater from a lower elevation to a higher one when gravity flow is not possible. Lift stations are commonly needed when:

    • The septic system or treatment plant is located at a higher elevation than the wastewater source.

    • The property has a high water table or challenging terrain, making gravity-fed drainage impractical.

    • A long-distance wastewater transfer is required, such as in commercial or remote locations.

  • Traditional steel lift stations are prone to rust, corrosion, and leaks, leading to costly maintenance and early replacement. AK-Octic Lift Stations, built from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), offer a stronger, longer-lasting, and maintenance-free alternative.

  • Yes! AK-Octic Lift Stations are built for a direct swap with steel models, meaning:

    • The inlet and outlet positions match standard steel lift stations, so no major plumbing modifications are required.

    • Existing infrastructure can remain intact, reducing overall installation costs.

    • Upgrading from steel to HDPE provides immediate benefits, including a longer lifespan and lower maintenance requirements.

  • Traditional steel lift stations are heavy and require large machinery for transport and placement. AK-Octic Lift Stations simplify installation and reduce costs thanks to:

    • A flat-bottom design that allows for stable transport without rolling or shifting.

    • A lightweight build, making them easier to handle and position without heavy equipment.

    • A seamless one-piece structure, eliminating the need for onsite assembly.

    These features make AK-Octic Lift Stations the best choice for remote areas where transport and setup need to be quick and efficient.

AK-Octic Lift Stations – Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Wastewater Solutions

At K Martin Construction LLC, we specialize in providing high-quality, long-lasting lift stations designed to outperform traditional steel systems. Built from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and featuring an octagonal shape for superior structural integrity, our lift stations are engineered for reliability, efficiency, and ease of installation.

Traditional steel lift stations are prone to rust, corrosion, and structural failure, leading to frequent maintenance and costly replacements. AK-Octic Lift Stations eliminate these issues, providing a maintenance-free, leak-proof, and corrosion-resistant alternative that lasts for decades.

Designed for Easy Steel Lift Station Replacement

Replacing an aging steel lift station has never been easier. AK-Octic Lift Stations are engineered to match the inlet and outlet placement of standard steel models, ensuring a seamless transition with minimal modifications.

  • Direct replacement compatibility with existing plumbing and infrastructure.

  • No costly reconfiguration required, reducing labor time and expenses.

  • Immediate performance benefits, including a longer lifespan and improved durability.

Stronger, More Durable, and Built to Last

AK-Octic Lift Stations are built to withstand harsh environments and heavy usage without the deterioration common in steel tanks.

  • HDPE construction is 100% rust and corrosion-proof, eliminating the risk of premature tank failure.

  • Octagonal design distributes pressure evenly, preventing collapse or deformation over time.

  • Seamless, leak-proof construction ensures reliability without the risk of cracked welds or leaking joints.

  • Expected lifespan of ?+ years, compared to 10-20 years for steel tanks.

Easy to Transport & Install

Traditional steel lift stations are heavy, difficult to maneuver, and require specialized equipment for installation. AK-Octic Lift Stations simplify the process with a lightweight, flat-bottom design that makes handling and setup safer, faster, and more cost-effective.

  • Flat-bottom design provides stable transport without rolling or shifting.

  • Lighter weight allows for easier positioning and placement without large machinery.

  • Quick, hassle-free installation reduces labor time and costs.

Reliable in Any Environment

AK-Octic Lift Stations are engineered to handle the toughest site conditions, making them a perfect solution for:

  • Residential properties that require wastewater pumping to a higher elevation.

  • Commercial and industrial wastewater systems needing a durable, long-term solution.

  • Remote and off-grid locations where ease of transport and installation is crucial.

  • High groundwater areas where corrosion-resistant materials are necessary to prevent system failure.

A Smarter Choice for the Future

AK-Octic Lift Stations eliminate the problems of traditional steel tanks, providing a cost-effective, maintenance-free alternative that lasts twice as long. Whether you're upgrading an existing system or installing a new one, our tanks offer a hassle-free solution that saves time, reduces costs, and delivers superior reliability.
