BioCycle Alaska uses the standard Model 1500 for all single family residential installations. This unit is approved by ADEC and the municipality of Anchorage for up to 4 bedrooms. For homes larger than 4 bedrooms we use a conventional, 2-compartment septic tank in line ahead of the BioCycle system. The size of the septic tank depends on the number of bedrooms to be served. For instance, a 5-6 bedroom residence would require a 1000 gallon septic tank installed in line ahead of the BioCycle system. A 1500 gallon septic tank in combination with a standard BioCycle Model 1500 would be adequate for 7 to 8 bedrooms.
Facilities larger than 8 bedrooms are generally considered multi-family units requiring a 2000 gallon septic tank and a BioCycle Model 2200. This combination has been used for facilities up to 14 bedrooms. BioCycle Alaska, Inc. has designed units for facilities up to 64 bedrooms.
