As a leading provider of Clearstream Wastewater Systems, we understand the importance of clarity when it comes to managing wastewater systems. These systems are a popular choice for residential and commercial properties alike due to their efficiency, reliability, and ease of maintenance. In this blog, we’ll address frequently asked questions about Clearstream.
What is a Clearstream Wastewater System?
A Clearstream wastewater system is an advanced onsite treatment system designed to efficiently and effectively treat wastewater from residential and commercial properties. These systems provide an ideal environment for treating aerobic bacteria and other microorganisms so that the dispersed effluent is clear, without odor, and organically stable water.
What are the advantages of using a Clearstream system?
The advantages of using a Clearstream system lie in its durability, cost-effectiveness, and easy maintenance. Constructed with high-quality precast concrete materials, Clearstream Systems offer exceptional structural integrity, requiring minimal maintenance and delivering consistent performance over time. Their efficient design reduces energy consumption and operational costs, while their robust construction minimizes repair needs. Additionally, Clearstream Systems feature user-friendly components and accessible designs for hassle-free maintenance, ensuring property owners save both time and money in the long run.
How often does a Clearstream system need to be serviced?
To maintain peak performance, regular servicing of the Clearstream Wastewater System is essential. Typical service intervals include replacing or repairing the aerator every 2 to 10 years, cleaning aerator filters every 6 months to 2 years, breaking up scum in the clarifier every 6 months to 2 years, pumping sludge from the aeration tank and trash trap every 2 to 5 years, checking the aeration diffuser annually, and inspecting the Surge Control Weir every 6 months. These routine maintenance tasks ensure the system operates efficiently and effectively over time.
Can a Clearstream system be installed in any type of soil?
Yes, ClearStream Wastewater Systems can be installed in various soil types found in Virginia’s eastern region.
