Taylex servicing and repairs

Taylex treatment plants are made in Queensland and are one of the most common systems on properties across South East Queensland. We service them on a regular schedule, repair them when something goes wrong, and lodge the council paperwork for you.

How a Taylex system works

Taylex aerated systems, including the ClearWater range, use the standard aerated treatment process. Solids settle and start breaking down in the first chamber. In the aeration chamber, a blower pushes air through diffusers so bacteria can treat the water. A clarifier lets the last of the solids settle out, then the treated water is disinfected with chlorine and pumped to your irrigation area.

Not sure what your alarm is telling you? Read what to check first, or see how to look after your plant.

Taylex questions

How often does a Taylex system need servicing?

Aerated systems in Queensland are generally serviced every three months, and your council expects a service report (Form 11) after each one. We book the visits and lodge the reports for you.

My Taylex alarm is going off. What should I do?

Note whether the alarm light points to the air blower or a high water level, keep water use to a minimum, and give us a call. Most alarms come down to a blower, pump or float switch, which we can usually sort on the first visit.
