The solution to restoring your septic system is simple; reduce or remove the biomat clogging of the soil pores.
The only long term way to accomplish this is to change the bacteria community in the septic tank, dramatically reduce or remove the organic material leaving the septic tank and inoculate bacteria into the effluent leaving the septic tank that will consume the biomat.
The problem is biological, the solution is biological.
To understand how Septic Genie works, you need to understand a little about the bacteria in a septic system. Remember, bacteria do the work of digesting and treating our waste. There are two distinct groups of bacteria, anaerobes that do not use oxygen for energy and aerobes that use oxygen for energy.
There is third group of bacteria that are a bit of both. They are called facultative bacteria. Facultative bacteria can be either anaerobic bacteria that can temporarily change their metabolism to an aerobe (facultative aerobes) or an aerobe that can temporarily change their metabolism to an anaerobe (facultative anaerobes).
You most frequently find facultative aerobes in the intestines of animals with guts. You most frequently find facultative anaerobes in forest leaf litter, humic soils and composting vegetation.
It is the facultative anaerobic bacteria that are important. It is well known by the septic industry that facultative anaerobes will break down the biomat slime and consume solids when deprived of oxygen. A disposal field full of slime and solids has no oxygen. The problem was how to get them into a septic system cheaply and efficiently.
That is where the patented ABG technology of the Septic Genie saved the day. Septic Genie grows them in your septic tank using your organic solids as food. They digest your waste for food thereby removing it from the system; they increase their numbers and leave the septic tank entrained in every cup full of effluent and travel to your drain field.
In the drain field they migrate into the soil, quickly break down the biomat and restore the drain field to full function. With a properly operating Septic Genie in your septic tank your drain field can’t fail again from biomat clogging of the soil.
