Intermittent Use or Vacating Property
The AS450-2, AS500-2, AS600-2, AS750-2, AS1000-1, and AS1500-2 systems are designed to
operate continuously. In the event the property is vacated for a period of 90 days or more, it is advised
to turn off the power to the compressor. The compressor should be restarted upon occupancy of the
premises.
In extreme climates (extreme cold and/or light snow cover i.e. deep frost conditions), precautions
should be taken to prevent damage and ensure proper system operation. During winter months, if the
property is vacated for more than a two-(2) week period, it is advised to turn off the power to the
compressor.
Diagnostic Techniques
The alarm light illuminates for two conditions, either a signal from the air switch or a signal from the
float switch. Follow the steps below to determine the cause of the alarm. Verify that the liquid level in
the tank is at the proper level; approximately at the bottom of the outlet pipe. If the tank level is
elevated correct this issue before proceeding with the troubleshooting steps.
1. Unplug the float from the alarm box. If the light goes out go to step 4. If the light does not go out go
to step 2. See Figure 43
2. Make sure the large air line connections are not leaking. If not leaking, go to step 3. See Figure 37.
3. Make sure the small air line is tightly connected to the black tee- fitting and the fitting on the bottom
of the alarm box. If the connections are tight, pinch the large air line after the black tee- fitting (on the
tank side of the tee) to deadhead the pump. The sound output of the pump will change. If the light
goes out, the air switch is o.k. and go to step 4. If the light does not go out, contact the authorized
service provider listed on the label of the product or Aero-Stream.
4. Plug the float into the alarm box. Open the septic tank cover and make sure the float switch is
hanging vertically in the tank. If not, push the float downward with a sick until the cord and float are
vertical. If the light goes out, go to step 5.
5. While allowing the float to hang from its bracket, adjust the float switch clamp on the mast upward
until the light goes out.
6. If the light does not go out, contact the authorized service provider listed on the label of the product
or Aero-Stream, LLC.
High Water Event
A high water event can be caused by hydraulic overloading from the dwelling, surface or ground
water entering the tank through a crack or opening or by runback from the absorption component
if it is failed. Systematically eliminate each of the potential causes to find the source.
Low Air Event
A low air event can be caused by the compressor not operating caused by a tripped circuit or
GFCI breaker or a severed power cord on the compressor. Systematically eliminate each of the
potential causes.
