It now appears that only the smallest of the Biorock appliances have been approved - why all three don't get the nod at the same time is a bit beyond me, seeing that they're all identical apart from tank capacity. Plumber is keen on a French-made system called Calona Purflo using coconut fibre filters which has apparently been approved; anyone know anything about it?

I understand it's all of that, and certainly no lit de sable. I'm in 31, and I've been pointed to Olivier GABEN - RAINB'EAU 06 80 94 09 24 [email protected]. www.hqeaux.com seems to cover other areas too. Yet to make contact, however, so my information so far is only from the website of the manufacturer and a phone conversation with the UK supplier for Biorock

Sorry, I meant the the French approvals list at www.assainissement-non-collectif.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/article.php3?id_article=185. However, since I posted I've received an email from the Biorock manufacturer with the formal approval document No 2010-026 attached, dated 24th December. I'm strongly minded to go ahead with this system because of its claimed performance, the fact that it uses no power and can cope with being unused for up to six months, which is good for our holiday home

I've been told by the UK agent that the Biorock system was approved under the Compacto brand name, the first system on the list - is this not correct?
