The complete wastewater treatment system will typically consist of the Fusion ® treatment components and a soil absorption field for final
disposal of the liquid effluent. Some states or counties may require the addition of a septic tank before the Fusion ® to increase the sedimentation
chamber capacity and retain more solids. Please see Figure 9 for a typical Fusion ® system. Variations to the typical system will be made to suit
your particular site and system design needs. Please contact your authorized Fusion ® installer or maintenance provider for further information
about your system design.
The Fusion ® alarm panel (see Figure 4) is designed to activate an
audible buzzer and red beacon light on top of the panel if there is a drop
in air pressure, if a high water alarm condition occurs, or if the blower
does not cycle between recirculation and backwash modes within the
preset time. (Note: Alarm panel can only function as long as there is
electrical power supplied to the panel)
You may from time to time check the proper operation of the alarm
panel by toggling the black switch on the side of the panel to “test”. The
buzzer will sound and the red beacon will light as long as you hold the
switch in the test position. Release the switch for normal operation.

The Fusion ® is designed to treat household type waste and can treat most
common substances introduced into the system. However, certain harmful
substances may reduce the efficiency or stop the treatment process by
reducing or destroying the beneficial bacterial populations responsible
for treatment. In general, if a chemical substance is considered harmful
to humans then it should also be considered harmful to the Fusion ®
treatment system. If you have any questions concerning the use of any
of these substances, please contact your Fusion ® maintenance provider.
The introduction of any substance on the “Do Not List” into the
Fusion ® will void the warranty.
LEAKY FIXTURES
It is very important to monitor all water fixtures in the home for leaks and
drips and repair them immediately. Excessive water use may hydraulically
overload your Fusion ® system and reduce its treatment efficiency.
Excessive water use may also overload your soil absorption field and
cause failure.
HIGH USE WATER DEVICES
The draining of hot tubs and swimming pools into your Fusion ® system
could cause hydraulic overloading and may reduce the treatment
efficiency. Please drain these devices to another location. Contact
your local regulatory authorities or authorized Fusion ® maintenance
provider for more information. The use of large capacity single fill and
drain whirlpool bathtubs may also cause hydraulic overloading of your
Fusion ® . Please limit the use of these types of tubs.
The Fusion ® system is designed to continuously operate automatically with little direct maintenance from the owner. Periodically, a check of the
blower area is recommended to ensure no debris obstructs the ventilation or intake areas of the blower. Also, periodically test the control panel
as outlined under the alarm panel section. The owner should closely monitor the types and amounts of substances and products used. Water use
should also be closely monitored to ensure proper operation of the Fusion ® system.
Periodically, more extensive maintenance must be performed. Your authorized Fusion ® maintenance provider will oversee this service. The name
of the maintenance provider can be recorded on the front of this document and should also be located on the alarm panel. For more information
see the Operation and Maintenance section of the manual.
The owner should only perform minimal routine maintenance on the Fusion
® such as clearing debris from around blower housing (leaves, snow,
and grass clippings). The Fusion ® should also be protected from excessive weight such as vehicular traffic. Trees and bushes should not be
planted in close proximity to the Fusion ® . The Fusion ® should be accessible to maintenance personnel and the riser lids must never be buried.
