ABOUT YOUR HOME AERATION TREATMENT PLANT

DO'S & DONT'S
        AVOID THESE ITEMS
  • Do Not put any of the following items in your plant or sewage system.  They will cause serious damage to the plant's biological process and equipment.
  • Plastic, sanitary napkins, scouring pads, condoms, mop strings, "disposable" diapers, towels, lint, rags, etc.  These items will collect in your plant and require more frequent pumping.
  • Paints, thinner, chemicals, grease, solvents and sanitizer.  These kill the good bacteria in your plant.
  • Water softener backwash.  Route to drainage ditch, storm sewer or downspout drainage system.
  • Heavy plumbing cleaners and toilet bowl freshener hang tabs will also kill off the good bacteria in your plant

         THINGS TO DO
  • Know the location of your control panel and check periodically for alarm conditions
  • Keep a record of pumping, inspections, and maintenance
  • Practice water conservation to reduce the amount of water going into the aeration system
  • Learn the location of your aeration system, avoid constructing patios, decks, and paved surfaces over your system
  • Divert roof drains and surface water from your aeration system
  • Keep sump pump water and house footing drains away from your aeration system
  • Reduce heavy water usage periods by separating dishwashing and laundry from shower time
  • If your plant serves as a vacation home or a building in which all occupants will be absent part of the time, the plant should  be left running during your absence.
