
Do not dump recreational vehicle (RV) holding tank waste into your septic
tank. This produces a large surge of sewage to the system and will most
likely force untreated effluent out of the septic tank into the distribution
component. Also, most RV owners use some type of odor control
chemicals that are harmful to the system. These are usually blue liquids
or tablets. These odor control chemicals are disinfectants to kill the odor
causing anaerobic bacteria in the waste. When the disinfected waste from
an RV system is dumped into the septic tank, it kills the bacteria in the
system.
Most Common Questions and Tips

If you have used bacterial additives in the past, the system may be difficult
to convert to an aerobic environment. Call the authorized service provider
listed on the label of the product or Aero-Stream
®
immediately if the
system emits any septic odor after 2-5 days.

The housing device can be started even if the tank containing the diffuser
is empty. No damage will be done to the system or product. If the tank
was pumped, it will typically take five-(5) to seven-(7) days for a family of
four-(4) to fill a 1,000 gallon tank.

If the housing device is started with an empty tank, there may be no odor
or an odor for a much shorter duration.

Place the housing device on a patio block or similar surface to elevate the
unit above the ground. This will insure that the housing does not become
flooded and will keep the unit free of yard debris.

In the event of a temporary or extended power failure, check the GFCI
device and reset.
WARNING: Do not flush chemicals such as caustic soda, acids, copper
sulfate, chemical cleaners, paint thinner, latex or oil based paint, solvents,
waxes, polish pesticides, poisons, fuels or motor oil or hazardous wastes.
Do not flush anything other than toilet tissues down your toilet such as
filter tip cigarettes sanitary napkins, all feminine products, paper towels,
rags, plastic objects or disposable diapers. All of these items cannot be
broken down or are very difficult for the bacteria to break down.
