OPERATING & MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
An annual service and maintenance contract should be set up for your BIOROCK system. Contact
your dealer if necessary or contact us for more details about the closest dealer to you.
Maintenance on Multirock installations:
Multirock installations are specific, especially when serving commercial applications
(particular wastewater characteristics). To ensure long lasting efficiency of the
system, Multirock installations should be visited and maintained on a more frequent
basis than domestic installations.
A maintenance visit each quarter (every 3 months) by a Certified, trained BIOROCK
Professional is mandatory for Multirock installations. A periodic service and
maintenance contract should be set up by the user with this Professional.
BIOROCK highly recommends users to set up a maintenance contract with their local dealer or Certified
Installer to ensure the long lasting efficiency of BIOROCK products. Completing the maintenance book
together with a BIOROCK Certified Professional is a condition for warranty. However, should you be
unable to get this service locally, BIOROCK can provide a maintenance planning schedule giving an
overview of the maintenance procedures. This planning schedule will allow a professional in the
wastewater industry to provide the maintenance service.
Please check with local authorities how often the primary compartment should be emptied as this
should be in line with local regulations.
The summary below indicates the commissioning of your sewage treatment plant. Your sewage
treatment plant can be free from any failures as the BIOROCK system does not require electricity. (In
normal operation, and following the maintenance recommendations)
