Presby Environmental is releasing a new wastewater treatment product called EnviroFin to the market in May 2016. EnviroFin is a passive onsite wastewater treatment and dispersal system designed with the same principles as Presby’s proven Advanced Enviro-Septic technology. EnviroFin is designed to ship easily (one 65 pound box) and will be installed into a smaller space than any other wastewater treatment technology currently on the market – all while maintaining high treatment levels at an affordable price. New Hampshire and Maine are the first states EnviroFin is approved in and is available for installation.

EnviroFin will be primarily used in residential and commercial applications. Due to the small size of the system, small, previously unbuildable lots with many setback requirements will now have a solution. The product has no mechanical parts, does not need chemicals or have energy requirements, and has no costly maintenance contracts. The product passed and exceeded the NSF 40 protocol at the Massachusetts Alternative Septic System Test Center in Sandwich, Massachusetts.

The effluent leaves the septic tank and enters an EnviroFin unit, which consists of a center Fin Distribution Unit and eight treatment fins filled with randomly oriented green plastic fibers and a perforated pipe acting as an air duct. The effluent fills the FDU until it enters the treatment fin through perforations around the FDU. The unit is buried in System Sand, a C-33 concrete sand, and is installed with differential vents for air flow.

“It is a very exciting time for us,” says Lee Rashkin, vice president of Presby Environmental. “The EnviroFin will fill a void currently in the onsite wastewater industry by being a small, passive wastewater treatment system that will be easier to ship than any onsite treatment product currently on the market. The septic industry will never be the same.”
