Blower stoppage or electrical power outage
The Oasis Series 3000 Wastewater Treatment System requires a constant supply of
oxygen and food for the biomass. Should the blower stop, air flow through the aeration
pipe will stop, cutting off the supply of oxygen to the biomass. A prolonged absence of
oxygen will seriously affect the condition of the biomass.
When the blower is operating, it will emit a humming sound. If the blower is not
operating, first determine whether an electrical power outage has occurred in your
community.
If your house is without electricity, call the electric company. If the electricity is off more
than 48 hours, call your service provider as well for treatment system advice. If your
house has electricity but the blower is not operating, follow the procedures given under
alarm wiring.
Flooding
Flood water may cover the septic unit, the blower housing, or both, affecting the
electrics, if the system is installed in a low-lying area.
Danger
Electrical equipment located in flooded areas presents an electrical hazard. Should the
unit become flooded, call your service provider. Stay out of the flooded area.
Evaluation of system performance
The Oasis Series 3000 Wastewater Treatment System operates automatically and
continuously. There are no operating procedures for the user of the System to perform.
However, as with any home appliance or equipment, simple periodic checks should
and can be made to aid in the prevention of costly repair problems. Generally, the
Wastewater Treatment System unit can be checked by sight and smell. The Oasis
Series 3000 Wastewater Treatment System is generally odour-free. If smells are evident
please check system usage, chemicals, etc. If smells persist, please call your service
technician.
