If you detect a sour or “rotten egg” smell, you should contact your installer immediately. This may be an indication of a blower malfunction or dead or unhealthy microorganism population.
With any on-site sewage treatment system, it is not wise to use an in-sink garbage d disposal. Use of these appliances puts un-treatable wastes into the system and causes the frequency of pumping of the tanks to dramatically increase.

AquaKlear compressors/blowers are extremely quiet and vibration-free. They can be placed directly outside or beneath any windows in the house without the homeowner even knowing that it is running!
This is dependant upon the personal habits of the homeowner and whether or not your treatment system has a pre-treatment tank. A good estimate is once every 5 years.
