Summary

About Taylex

Understanding Your HSTP

What is a Home Sewage Treatment Plant (HSTP)?

An HSTP, also known as an AWTS, is a tank that treats all household wastewater, allowing it to be reused in the garden.

How a HSTP Works

Wastewater is treated by natural bacteria that consume waste, doubling in numbers with oxygen, converting waste into non-polluting reclaimed water.

HSTP Operational Requirements

Essential Elements for HSTP Functionality

The system needs food (wastewater), air (oxygen), and a good environment, free from harmful pollutants, to function correctly.

Maintaining System Balance

Impact of Cleaning Products

Many cleaning products are toxic to HSTP bacteria; opt for environmentally friendly options or dispose of harsh chemicals separately.

Washing Machine Load Management

Spread laundry loads throughout the week and use moderate amounts of liquid soap to prevent system overload.

Product Recommendations

Suitable Cleaning and Laundry Products

Lists recommended dishwashing, surface, toilet, and floor cleaners. Laundry product advice is available via an external research link.

Products to Avoid

Harmful Household Chemicals

Avoid antibacterial solutions, bleaches, and specific household cleaners that can kill or inhibit the bacteria essential for the HSTP's operation.

HSTP Care and Maintenance

Key care includes keeping the power supply ON, avoiding improper flushing of waste, and preventing the disposal of harmful substances.
