What is an Aerobic Septic System?
Aerobic treatment units (ATUs) use oxygen to break down waste more effectively than conventional systems. An air pump introduces oxygen, supporting beneficial bacteria that treat wastewater to higher standards before discharge.

- Air Compressor: Provides oxygen to system
- Clarifier/Settling Tank: Final treatment stage
