Our COLEMPAQUES Horizontal FAFA (Upflow Anaerobic Filter) is the best solution for the third phase of your wastewater treatment system. Its horizontal design, with reinforcement veins, is structural and makes it resistant to external ground pressures. Therefore, it is 100% buried and self-supporting and does not require masonry or complementary works for its installation. We recommend connecting the pipes from the Imhoff Septic to this Anaerobic Filter, so that the wastewater begins a digestion and decomposition process within the Anaerobic Filter, through an organic process using bacteria. Thanks to its large capacity in liters, the filter allows excellent hydraulic retention times, which ensures that the bacteria added to the system have enough time to decompose the fecal matter. Once installed, we recommend that you complement your COLEMPAQUES Anaerobic Filter with several Rosette Filter Units to ensure that the bacteria treat the water in a homogeneous and complete manner within the filter. This is because the rosettes increase the porosity and the contact surface where the bacteria rest. This product is easy to install and is inexpensive to maintain. It has a wide cover to apply treatment, dispose of water and finally extract sludge. The product must never remain empty while buried.

Additional product information

Maintenance:
• Conduct periodic inspections every 6 months and maintenance and sludge removal activities annually.
• Prior to installation and during maintenance, the system must always remain full of water so that it is self-supporting and prevents the product from collapsing.
• The product cover must not be buried below the ground depth level. For deep installations, we recommend using extension collars.
• It is important to check the system's downpipes so that the sludge flows through the pipe without interruptions thanks to gravity.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is a wastewater pretreatment system used in places where there is no connection to a public sewer network.

The size is determined by the number of users that a septic system can support, which is variable and depends on multiple factors, such as water consumption or soil type.

We recommend that you consult a sanitary engineer or septic system specialist to perform the necessary calculations and design a system suitable to your needs.

Frequency may vary depending on factors such as system size, number of users, and usage.

Recommendations:

  • Inspections: At least once a year to check the level of sludge and grease, and the general condition of the system.
  • Cleaning: Every year, depending on the size of the tank and its use. This cleaning consists of removing accumulated sludge and grease.

To ensure the proper functioning of the bacteria in the septic system. There are black waters and grey waters:

Black water: This is all waste water that comes from toilets and dishwashers. The organic load contained is highly polluting, so water must be treated before filtering into the ground, in order to prevent damage to the subsoil or aquifers in the region. This water is what passes through the septic system.

Grey water: This is all waste water that comes from sinks, dishwashers and showers. It should not pass through the septic system due to its high content of antibacterial soaps that can harm the functioning of bacteria in the anaerobic filter.

  • Bad odors: They can be caused by a problem in the tank, in the drain field or by lack of maintenance.
  • Overflows: A full tank can cause overflows on the surface. Make sure you purchase a septic system with a larger capacity to ensure proper hydraulic retention times.
  • Wet or waterlogged areas: May indicate a problem in the infiltration or drainage field.

  • Chemicals: Harsh detergents, bleach, paints, solvents and other chemicals can kill beneficial bacteria in the tank.
  • Fats and oils: Fats and oils solidify in pipes and can clog the system.
  • Wet wipes: Although some are biodegradable, they can clog pipes.
  • Feminine hygiene products: Should not be flushed down the toilet.
