A wastewater treatment system takes wastewater from your home, cleans it, and returns clean water to the environment. This speeds up the traditional process that requires the soil to clean the water, which takes time and space to accomplish. It requires less space, less time and improves the environment.

Shelter Island and Suffolk County have developed rules and regulations to reduce nutrients such as nitrogen or phosphorus from your waste stream as protection against contamination of groundwater and water bodies. Give us a call to find out what regulations apply to your project.

Our reliance on Cesspools and Septic tanks is the main contributor to Nitrogen pollution in our water bodies. Suffolk County and Shelter Island recognize the importance of protecting our local water supply and unique ecology. To make the move towards I/A OWTS systems more accessible local and state funding is available in many cases.

Traditional septic and cesspool systems do not treat wastewater, just dispose of it. Cesspools are simply reinforced hole that contains and funnels waste into the ground and then the wastewater seeps through the soil into our groundwater. Septic systems do a bit more, by separating out liquid and solid waste before the untreated water is returned to the soil. Long Island and Shelter Island have a precocious ecosystem in which many communities rely on the aquifers for their water needs. If those Aquifers are compromised the result is an expensive and unprecedented crisis. This is why Suffolk County and Shelter Island have made the move to I/A OWTS systems, which treat the wastewater and release clean water back into the ground.

Your Fuji Clean I/A OWTS service professionals will perform two scheduled visits per year. Standard service consists of cleaning the internal components, backwashing and degassing the system, measuring the sludge and scum levels, checking the external blower air filter and replacing if necessary, and taking nitrogen/ammonia readings of the effluent to confirm system performance.

Nope. Fuji Clean is the most compact I/A OWTS system currently available and connects to leaching pools or drain fields in order to disperse the treated outflow from the system into the ground.

Fuji Clean I/A OWTS systems contain five processing chambers in a compact design. The wastewater moves through Sedimentation, Anaerobic, Aeration, storage, and disinfection chambers before being expelled. You can learn more here.

No, it's only about 40 decibels, which is lower than most refrigerator hums.
