A compressor that is operating but has low air flow to the tank can be caused by a compressor
that needs servicing by the Aero-Stream factory, a severed airline, a disconnected airline at either
the compressor or at the diffusers or a broken diffuser.
To investigate a low air flow condition, disconnect the airline at the tee fitting after the alarm and
measure the air pressure. The pressure should measure three-(3) to five-(5) psi. If the air
pressure is below this range, contact Aero-Stream to obtain a RMA number to return the product
for servicing.
If the pressure is within the specified range, plug the air discharge tube with a finger and
determine if the alarm signal stops. If the alarm signal stops, reconnect the airline and repeat the
pressure test and finger plug sequence at each joint in the airline until the issue is identified.
Repair or replace any failed component.
Odor Event
An odor 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.
An odor event can also be caused by organic overloading, chemical or cleaning product abuse
(see Best Septic System Practices), bacterial additives (directly or indirectly added to the system)
or lack of system pumping. Systematically eliminate each of the potential causes to find the
source. If the issue cannot be resolved, contact Aero-Stream.
Best Septic System Practices
•
Do not add bacterial additives to your system.
•
You should have no septic odor from the system after 5 days of installation. Call the authorized
service provider listed on the label of the product or Aero-Stream immediately if odor is persistent.
•
“Bubbles” or “foaming” may be present above the cleanout cover during early stages of start-up.
•
Repair leaking fixtures: A leaking faucet or flapper valve in the toilet can flood your septic system with
hundreds or even thousands of gallons of water per day.
•
Do not use flush activated toilet bowl tablets or cleaners as these products contain high amounts of
chlorine bleach that kills the bacteria in the septic tank.
•
Install an approved effluent filter in the outlet pipe of the septic tank if required by local or state code.
•
Install water conserving fixtures e.g. shower heads, faucets, and toilets.
•
Install lint traps or filters on clothes washing equipment.
•
Implement a water conservation plan to be used during and after the remediation process.
•
Some chemicals can upset the delicate biological bacteria action of the septic system. Other
chemical can act to clog the system. Familiarize yourself with preferred household chemicals that are
compatible with septic systems. Contact Aero Stream technical support at (Toll Free) 877-254-7093
or [email protected] for additional assistance.
•
Minimize the amount of wastes that are washed down the kitchen drain, including scraps that are run
through a garbage disposal
