Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Servicing is mandatory every three months (quarterly) in Western Australia to ensure the system continues to treat waste effectively and to meet council regulations.
The alarm typically indicates a fault with the air blower or the discharge pump. It is a sign that the system is not operating correctly. You should silence the alarm and call us for service.
The main difference is the textile media filter. It requires specific attention and a regular cleaning cycle to prevent it from becoming clogged with biomass, which would reduce the system's treatment efficiency.
