This cleaning rinse water, recovered into your unit’s vacuum tank, contains materials
such as detergents. These must be processed before being safe for streams, rivers
and reservoirs.
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EPA, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS, DO NOT
DISPOSE OF WASTE WATER INTO GUTTERS, STORM DRAINS,
STREAMS, RESERVOIRS, ETC.
In most cases, an acceptable method of waste water disposal is to discharge into a
municipal sewage treatment system after first filtering out solid material such as
carpet fiber. Access to the sanitary system can be obtained through a toilet, laundry
drain, RV dump, etc. Permission should first be obtained from any concerned party or
agency.
One disposal method which usually complies with the law is to accumulate the waste
water and haul it to an appropriate dump site. Another solution to the disposal
problem is to equip yourself with an Automatic Pump-Out System. These systems
are designed to remove waste water from the extractor’s recovery system and
actively pump the water through hoses to a suitable disposal drain. Properly
designed, they will continuously monitor the level of waste water and pump it out
simultaneously to the cleaning operation. The hidden benefit of this process is that
the technician does not have to stop his cleaning to empty the recovery tank.
HydraMaster makes an A.P.O. System available which can be ordered with new
equipment or installed later.
The penalties for noncompliance can be serious. Always check local laws and regu-
lations to be sure you are in compliance.
