LOCATION
Always have all utility lines and equipment marked by a locating service prior to performing any work. Failure to do so
could result in severe bodily injury or death.
FAST® systems may be located in the same position relative to the house and water supply as any
conventional septic system. However, some basic guidelines should be followed:
1. The FAST® system lid is designed to withstand a burial depth of up to 3 ft (0.9 m). Do not place the tank
in a location where it could be subjected to traffic or additional weight as the lid could be damaged or
break. A professional engineer should be consulted if additional loading conditions are expected. For
higher load conditions, consider the FAST® with feet option.
2. The FAST® system must be located so that sufficient slope (≥2%, ¼ in/ft) is provided for the influent
and effluent lines.
3. Excessive back pressure must not be applied to the blower. Follow all installation guidelines.
4. The method and arrangement for effluent discharge must not interfere with the treatment plant’s
operation.
Persons coming in contact with wastewater must immediately wash all exposed areas with disinfecting cleaner and
contact their personal physician. Failure to do so could result in severe sickness or death.
Hazards exist in confined spaces such as a septic tank. All confined space precautions must be followed if entering a
tank. Always keep tank openings covered during storage and installation.
