Although there have been small scale “home Aerobic systems” in the US for 50 years their use has been limited, in part because of the popularity of septic systems, which relatively inexpensive and easy to maintain. However, as soil changes and perc standards become more stringent, more and more properties are no longer well suited for septic systems. Aerobic Systems are increasingly being installed as replacements for older worn-out septic systems as well as in new construction.
Aerobic Systems have several advantages:
- Can provide a higher level of treatment than a septic system
- Helps protect valuable water resources where septic systems are failing
- Provides an alternative for sites not suited for septic systems
- May extend the life of a drainfield
- May allow for a reduction in drainfield size
- Reduces ammonia discharged to receiving waters
Multi-Flo is the premier wastewater treatment unit
Available for residential use. It’s secret: sufficient
Aeration to treat the most troublesome wastewater
And 30 filter bags that provide 132 ft. sq. of filtration
- The result: Multi-Flo units produce an Effluent that has less than 5 mg/L CBOD and TSS and a fecal coliform counts that average 203 cfu/100 mL –- a whopping 99.999% disinfected –based on Independent studies at the University of Wisconsin. In Practice, Multi-Flo units regularly produce effluent hat have less than 50 cfu/100 mL.
No other residential wastewater treatment units can
- Examine this cross-section of a Multi-Flo
- Water enters the unit through the 4-inch
PVC pipe that is attached to dwelling or building being
- The aerator at the bottom of the unit draws air through the clear plastic tube and into the reactor chamber, where it mixes with the water. The 30 white filter bags provide filtration at a normal 100 micron size, assuring you of the cleanest effluent possible. The white PVC pipe also supports a sensor array to alert you and service personnel should a problem with the unit occur.
