SYSTEM OWNER’S MANUAL
Note
You will need to monitor your frequency of washing clothes
and dishes as this could complicate the treatment process if most
of the wastewater from your house is graywater. Graywater does
not contain enough organic material to help the treatment
process. To avoid disrupting the biological stability of your
system, try to spread your laundry and dishwashing over several
days instead of doing it all in one or two days.
The Pro Flo Wastewater Treatment System is much like a living
organism. It needs certain things to work and perform properly. Your
new system can treat most any type of household wastewater. This
includes the waste/waters from showers and baths, clothes and dishes,
and toilets. However, as great as the system performs in treating
common household sewage, it cannot treat everything flushed from
the house. For a more descriptive list of items that the Pro Flo cannot
treat, see the section in this manual titled “Items That Are NOT Safe
To Use In Your New System.”
Note
Toilets are known to leak water at times from the seal in the
tank, so it may be a good idea to test your toilet(s) occasionally.
Place a few drops of food coloring or dye into your tank. Observe
the bowl for a few moments. If you notice dye or coloring
entering your bowl, your seal in the tank is leaking. You will
need to replace the flapper in the tank. By performing this simple
test, you not only reduce your water usage, but you also prevent
diluting the needed bacteria from your system.
