Looking for Information

(OP)
Has anyone had any experence with a aeration device operating on a continuous basis and a system bacterial source both installed in an existing septic tank. The claim is that it can recover a failed leaching field. My engineer has not seen this system and has no backround in it. Thanks, Jim

RE: Looking for Information

A septic system has no aeration, otherwise it wouldn't be a septic system.  If you aerate a septic system, solids won't settle due to the mixing.  


Also, you don't need a bacterial source.  If conditions for bacteria are present, you will find an abundance of microbes.

Thank you I agree with you but Massachusetts has approved to companies to us this tech in treating failed septic fields just looking for some back round on same, thanks

RE: Looking for Information

Please look at this site:

I work with an engineer that uses these systems extensively in AZ.

Please shoot me a response if there is more I can do to help.
