2. Address Bacterial Health

Bacterial health is the cornerstone of well functioning Aerobic Treatment Unit.

Our minimum recommendation is to use the e-Flush toilet cleaner and Ecocare Activator. However, every product you use in your household needs to be 100% biodegradable and ATU friendly.

The health of the unit is going to be affected by whatever you are putting down the drains and loo - this includes bleach, medicines, oils, fats and food scraps. 

Enviroplus and Ecocare products are unique as they have specific ingredients in the formula which are crucial for maintaining health and efficient effluent breakdown and they were designed specifically for ATUs. 

3. Chamber Sets

Your chamber set can be affected by high temperature - our WA heat means these can wear out much faster than expected. This is an industry wide issue. 

• Cooling fan modification: A cooling fan can be fitted at your next service. This modification will help keep the chamber set cool and significantly reduce the running temperature of the pump. Call our support team on 9248 9440 to book.
• Providing adequate shade around it will make a significant difference – read more about ways to keep your chamber sets cool on our blog.
