SEASONAL OR INTERMITTENT USE
The FAST® wastewater treatment system will function normally during short periods of inactivity, even if there is no
wastewater flowing to the system. The power to the system should be left on during this time.
Here are some typical examples of intermittent use and suggested operational procedures:
Summer use property (i.e., shut down all winter): Blower should be turned off at the end of summer and
restarted at least a week before returning. Please contact your local Service Provider to restart the system
and check with local regulations.
Weekend property (i.e., used at least one weekend out of three): Maintain normal operation or use FAST®’s
SFR® blower timer feature on the control panel.
Check with local regulations before attempting: If property is seldom used and blower is shut down completely for an
extended period of time (i.e., summer-use only), we suggest you get your local Service Provider’s help restarting the
blower a week or two prior to returning to the property.
Only authorized service personnel should service a septic system and its components. Deadly
hazards such as lethal gases and high voltage electricity are associated with the system.
Introducing harmful or damaging substances into the FAST® system may void the warranty.
ALARMS
Your FAST® system has an audible and visual alarm on the control panel. If you find the alarm going off on the control
panel, you can silence the audible alarm by pressing the “Silence” button. The visual alarm light will remain on after the
audible alarm is silenced. A label on the control panel should provide the contact information for your Service Provider.
Please call your Service Provider and tell them that your system is alarming and ask for 48 hour service to resolve the
alarm condition.t are required by local regulation
NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS
The FAST® system's blower makes a continuous humming sound. If you hear an unusual noise, call
your Service Provider.
A musty, earthy-type of odor is normal. However, if you smell a sewage odor (rotten egg smell), call
your Service Provider.
A properly loaded and operated FAST® system should produce clear effluent. If the effluent is cloudy,
opaque, or suddenly changes, call your Service Provider.
The on-off switch should be in the ON position, and the power light indicator should also be on. The
alarm light indicator and the alarm buzzer should be off.
