Ecoflo biofilter - Owner’s manual Premier Tech thanks you for having installed an Ecoflo biofilter on your property. We are passionate about the protection of underground water sources and the environment. Your choice certainly helps in this way! This manual contains information on the operation, operation guidelines, maintenance, and warranties on your Ecoflo biofilter.
The model and the number of Ecoflo biofilter are determined by the domestic wastewater flow per day. The selection of the model also depends on the available surface area, the topography of the lot, as well as the type, permeability, and depth of the natural soil on site.
NEVER plant trees within 3 m (9' 10") of the lid of a fiberglass Ecoflo biofilter or within 2 m (6' 6") of the absorption bed. Roots seek nourishment in the filtering medium of the Ecoflo biofilter and their growth could cause damage to the unit.
3 m (9' 10") NEVER drive a vehicle or place objects weighing more than 225 kg (500 lb) too close of the lid of your Ecoflo biofilter. See minimum distances to respect in table above. If you are planning any kind of landscaping or property work (snow removal, lawn mowing, excavation, etc.), make sure you advise all those involved, so they do not damage your septic...
The selective method without a filter allows the solids to settle within the truck before the water is returned to the primary/septic tank. As such, in an effort to ensure the Ecoflo biofilter continues to perform optimally, it is important that you ensure that the water returned to the primary/septic tank has been properly clarified and contains very few, if any, suspended solids.
