Is the Ecosafe Plant suitable if I wish to go on holidays, or have extended periods of non-usage?
Yes. The microbiological culture within the moist sand filter will survive for long periods of non-usage, until further organic material is again available as sustenance. No additional re-activation is necessary. Ecosafe’s Aerobic Sand Filtration system -v- Prefabricated Aerated Systems Aerobic Sand Filtration uses a totally natural method of achieving aeration. Ecosafe’s system takes advantage of natural site conditions – and uses the natural and passive processes of gravity and hydraulic displacement, to ensure minimal maintenance requirements. In contrast, Aerated systems (which achieve aeration by mechanical means) require an air-blower which operates continuously (up to 24 hours each day) – with associated frequent replacement costs, electricity usage and noise. Ecosafe is the totally natural wastewater treatment system. We invite you to compare. Please use our worksheet.
