Abstract: There exist irreducible exact covering systems (ECS). These are ECS which are not a proper split of a coarser ECS. However, an ECS admiting a maximal modulus which is divisible by at most two distinct primes, primely splits a coarser ECS. As a consequence, if all moduli of an ECS

A

, are divisible by at most two distinct primes, then

A

is natural. That is,

A

can be formed by iteratively splitting the trivial ECS.
