💧 Premier Aqua Tech Effluent Filter FAQs – Canadian Shield Consulting Agency, Ontario, Canada

What is a Premier Aqua Tech Effluent Filter?

A Premier Aqua Tech Effluent Filter is a high-performance filtration device installed in a septic or wastewater treatment tank to prevent solids from entering the leaching bed or secondary treatment system. These filters are designed to enhance system longevity, improve effluent quality, and protect the environment.
At Canadian Shield Consulting Agency, we install and maintain Premier Aqua Tech Effluent Filters across Ontario as part of comprehensive onsite wastewater management solutions.

How does an effluent filter work?

Effluent filters are placed at the outlet of the septic tank. As wastewater exits the tank, the filter traps suspended solids, grease, and debris, allowing only cleaner liquid effluent to flow into the leaching bed or biofilter system.
The Premier Aqua Tech filter is specifically engineered with high-capacity filtration slots and durable materials to ensure long-term, maintenance-friendly operation even in Ontario’s cold climates.

Effluent Filter Inside of Septic Tank

The Polylok PL-122 Effluent Filter

Polylok’s filters are unique to the industry and are totally modular. By cutting out the designated flow panel on the back of the filter housing, the filters snap together to provide the maximum filtration possible. Polylok’s filter housing is engineered to provide years of maintence free service no matter what external forces arise during operation or service. The housing is equipped with a gas deflection/shutoff ball that not only deflects total suspended solids from entering the filter, but it stops the flow of unfiltered effluent from escaping to the field when the filter cartridge is removed for service.

Features
  • Provides double the area compared to units of similar size
  • It comes with a flow control ball that shuts off the flow of effluent when the filter is removed for cleaning
  • It has it’s own gas deflector ball which allows the effluent to enter the filter from the sides, deflecting the solids away
  • A built in passive warning system which alerts the homeowner of potential problems months in advance as the filter matures
  • Easy to install on new tanks, or retrofit in existing systems
