Where to get the IO manual for the Aqua Aire Model AA500 septic system control

My wife and I purchased a piece of property in 2021 which needed well, septic, electric, etc.

We were told we needed an aerobic septic system rather than the traditional tank septic system. Unfortunately, problems between myself and the contractor/installer developed mid-project.

We were given only a receipt with a Model(?) number. We were not given a manual or any specific, or even general, instructions regarding operation or maintenance.

Can you please provide information on where I can obtain a manual and basic operating information?

The model number listed on the receipt is Aqua Aer AA-500 ATU. Your assistance is greatly appreciated as we fear facing serious septic problems ahead due to our unintentional lack of information. Respectfully, Ron Jonietz On 2023-05-23

@Ron Jonietz,

How discouraging to have problems with your contractor leaving you uninformed on the system installed.

You can find the manual for the Aqua Aire Model AA500 by clicking this link.

And for more information about aerobic systems in general, start with our home page on this topic:

Help turning off the alarm on the BioMicrobic BioBarrier Control Panel

BioBarrier septic control panel (C) InspectApeedia.com Olga

I have BioMicrobic septic with the BioBarrier panel. A few days ago the alarm of the septic went off, showing on the panel that the mixing device is at minimum.

When the mode is in filtration everything is working properly, the pump, blower, filter etc., but the alarm goes off every 2 hours and 10 minutes constantly showing that the mixing device is at minimum.

I even had an inspector come to check it out and he said that there is no problem with the septic system itself.

I want to know if this has anything to do with the panel and the electrical wiring inside and if I should get an electrician come and inspect it?

Please let me know if anything else could be causing this issue. On 2020-05-12 by Olga

Reply by danjoefriedman (mod) Here are basic instructions for the Biobarrier Control Panel and Alarm

Olga

I don't trust that I can debug the system by text alone; if it was working properly previously I suspect it's not a wiring error but more likely a sensor, control relay, or pump error.

The company provides a troubleshooting sequence if there is trouble with the alarm:

ALARM PANEL AND ALARM SOUNDS The alarm has a ~10 second built-in delay. T

est the audible alarm by pressing the ENTER/MODE bottom.

To silence the alarm, use the “RESET” button on the panel’s front.

If the alarm is activated for an unknown reason, please refer to the “Troubleshooting Guide” located in this manual.

You need the service manual for your BioBarrier control panel. You can download a copy from

Is there an alternative drainfield for my Nyadic aerobic septic system?

I just moved to 4 acre horse farm with horses and well. I have a nayadic system. The effluent pipe runs about 100 ft to a depression 30x30 ft. into the pasture. Is there a recommendation for an alternate "drainfield" or pit?

There is room outside the pasture. I also have a shallow well(35ft deep with 15 ft of water). It is about 50 ft from effluent line. no codes out here Bill I. 12/11/11

Reply: contact information for Nyadic Aerobic Septic Systems

Bill.

Nayadic aerobic septic systems are produced by Nayadic, a division of Consolidated Treatment Systems, Inc. These systems are NSF tested and certified using a single tank for both the aeration of sewage wastewater and for solids separation.

While I could envision disposing of effluent in a more conventional drainfield than an above-ground depression (and I wonder who approved that), I would contact the company to ask for details about the intended means of disposal or dispersal of treated effluent from their system.

Give Consolidated a call at 800-503-0163. The company's contact information is in the references above in this article.[8]

While you're at it, ask them for an owner's manual for your system.

Nayadic also produces and sells rotary vane air pumps for aerobic septic systems that support Nayadic 500, 600, 800, and 1000 gallon per day aerobic septic designs.
