No, wastewater is temporarily stored in the basin and then pumped out when the water reaches a certain level. Solids are ground up and removed as well.

First, find the silence button to stop the alarm (usually located on the bottom or inside the panel). Next, stop all water use and wait fifteen minutes. If the red alarm light does not go off by then, fill out a service request so we can come check it out!

The station works like a normal sewer system. To avoid blockages and damages to the pump, the following items should NOT be placed into any sewer system.

• Glass/Metal
• Abrasive materials including gravel, sand, coffee grinds, kitty litter, etc.
• Seafood shells
• Socks, rags, or cloths
• Plastic
• Sanitary napkins or tampons
• Disposable diapers
• Explosives or flammable materials
• Lubricating oil, grease, and paint
• Strong chemicals
• Gasoline or diesel
• Personal wipes (and other products marked “flushable”)

E/One stations don’t use any floats systems, which is very different than most lift stations. Follow the guide below for step-by-step installation instructions or contact a representative for assistance.

Installation Manual

There are many different factors that go into choosing the right pump including gallons per minute (GPM), elevation (TDH), discharge size, application, etc. Contact a Hydro Source representative to make sure you have the most efficient and cost effective solution for your new project.

Each project varies depending on infrastructure already in the area, topography, and whether you want to go with on or offsite treatment.

Always make sure you have the right sized pumps and equipment for your plant. Also, by installing a SCADA system you can find failure points and monitor all aspects of your treatment plant.
