AEROBIC SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY

The Hiblow HP-80 septic air pump is compatible for use on many 500 & 600 GPD (Gallons Per Day) rated aerobic treatment units, including but not limited to the following systems:

THE LIFELINE TO YOUR AEROBIC SEPTIC SYSTEM!

The septic air pump is literally the lifeline of your aerobic system. The system cannot function the way it was designed without the air pump working. The actual purpose of the air pump is two-fold. First, the air pump puts oxygen into the water allowing the formation and survival of Aerobic bacteria. These Aerobic bacteria are what eat up all of the waste in the tank. They are much larger and more efficient at processing waste as compared to the anaerobic bacteria found in a conventional septic system.

Secondly, the air pump creates an action in the tank that breaks down large solids into tiny particles, making it very easy for the bacteria to attach to and devour the waste.

If you air pump quits working on your aerobic system, over a period of about 2 weeks the system will begin to turn back anaerobic. The biggest problem with this happening is that there is no secondary treatment system behind your aerobic system, as you have in a conventional anaerobic septic system. Once the aerobic system turns back anaerobic, instead of producing a clear odorless discharge the effluent will be closer to raw sewage. As you may realize, raw sewage discharging into a ditch, lake, or pond, or being sprayed on your lawn is not a good thing. This is why it is important to your system for the air pump to be up and running.

SEPTIC AIR PUMP SIZE DOES MATTER!

The other misconception is that the air pump just puts air in the water, so it doesn’t really matter which size is used. Nothing could be further from the truth. Air pump sizing is actually very important to the operation of your system, and not every system will use the same size air pump. If you have been our website, then you already know there are many different types and sizes. The air pump size is normally determined by the volume capacity of the tank, the style of air diffusers in the tank, and how many GPD (Gallons Per Day) the system is designed to treat.

Our sales team can make sure you get the right size pump if you are unsure about this aspect of buying a new one. In most cases we only need either the model number of the pump you are replacing, or the brand of your aerobic system and the GPD that it is rated to treat. Again, size does matter and it is very important that you get the correct air pump for your system.

Why the Hiblow HP-80 Is Essential for Your Septic System

The septic air pump is the lifeline of your aerobic treatment system. It serves two critical functions:

1. Oxygenation: Supplies oxygen to the tank, enabling aerobic bacteria to thrive and efficiently break down waste, producing clear, odorless effluent.
2. Solid Breakdown: Creates agitation to break large solids into smaller particles, making it easier for bacteria to process waste.

Without a functioning air pump, your system may revert to an anaerobic state within about two weeks, leading to raw sewage-like effluent and potential environmental hazards. Proper pump sizing is crucial, and the Hiblow HP-80 is specifically designed for 500-600 GPD systems, ensuring optimal performance.
