Flush and forget. That's nice but if you don't get into the bacteria enhancement
business you could have a nasty surprise come the holidays. You see, your
forgettable septic tank is a closed system containing billions of anaerobic
bacteria (work without oxygen). These bacteria "feed" on solid organic waste.
Household wastes are completely dissolved and converted into water and carbon
dioxide and carried to the leach field.
Here's the problem. Even though septic systems have been around a long time, in
recent years we have increased our demands. We are using more detergents,
bleaches, sanitizers. disinfectants and harsh chemicals. These agents, while
beneficial to our health and hygiene, can decrease the ability of bacteria to
digest waste in our septic systems.
Here's the solution: prevention. To help keep your septic system trouble free,
boost the bacteria level in the tank to effectively digest and liquefy organic
wastes. There are several products available which treat the problem. We carry
Roebic K-37, Rid-X, Microbe-Lift and Drain Care Septic Tank Treatment. Some are
longer-lasting than others - read the labels. Consider this as a simple system
maintenance program which requires consistency and should reduce the need for
tank pumping and eliminate costly septic system and leach field replacement. All
you do is pour the treatment into your toilet bowl and flush! What could be
easier?
