Septic Drainer Review

Septic Drainer is like Magic in a Bottle! After speaking with Mark Reynolds about his product (Septic Drainer), our company decided to give it a try. In the areas we service, a lot of homeowners have septic system problems especially during this time of year. We recently had a system that we did not feel confident that we could effectively restore. Much to our surprise, Septic Drainer did the job. It was like magic in a bottle. We were using Septic Seep as our drainfield restorative and had success but not as much success as with Septic Drainer.

This product is unbelievable. We will never use any other product. We are officially lifetime customers. Mr. Reynolds ability to market his product with full confidence of its effectiveness sold me after one conversation. Buying Septic Drainer was the best decision we have made in a long time.

Smelling Anything But Roses?

The day started off like any other as I took my morning garden tour to check my rose bushes, but a curious smell in the air disrupted my slice of heaven. You didn’t have to be a detective to quickly ascertain that the odor was decidedly “sewer-like” and that my septic drain field was in crisis. To put it mildly – and by this time, the smell was anything but mild – the lawn surface over my septic drain field was awash in wastewater.

In retrospect, I had ignored the warning signs. Bright green strips over the septic drain field should have set off alarm bells.  Then there was a plumbing backup about a month ago, which I attributed to a small toy that a helpful child flushed down the toilet. This was followed shortly thereafter by gurgling sounds in the plumbing and slow-draining sinks and toilets. A call to the septic maintenance company indicated that they had pumped out the septic tank only six months ago, so an inspector was dispatched.

If sewage water cannot trickle through the holes in the underground piping in a septic drain field and the cleaning organisms present in soil cannot do their job, then the effluent will begin to collect. In this case, it was collecting on my lawn.

Septic drain field problems develop over time, and as the inspector pointed out, the sodium present in products used for laundry, in the kitchen and bathroom, and in our diets, bonds with the soil in a septic drain field. Over time, this bond creates an impenetrable barrier, which prevents the wastewater from percolating through the soil. Almost 90% of septic system failures are due to sodium buildup in the soil. If the soil is unable to perform its cleaning or absorptive functions, then the continuous wastewater flushed out from the septic tank into the septic drain field has to find an outlet.

The good news is that is possible to restore soil structure and drainage by adding Septic Drainer to the septic system. An environmentally friend product, Septic Drainer uses a groundbreaking soil-restorative formula to restore failed or failing septic drain fields. The product is based on a solution commonly used in agriculture to improve the absorption of plant foods and water in the fields.

As directed, I added four gallons of Septic Drainer to my 1,000-gallon septic tank, and within a week, my septic system was rejuvenated and back on track. To ensure that the system stays in balance, I will follow the advice to add one gallon of Septic Drainer every six months. The modest cost of Septic Drainer was a welcome alternative to the initial possibility that I would need to repair the piping that distributes effluent through the septic drain field or rip out and replace the septic tank.

Now I can relax and smell my roses.

Bio-Septic F.O.G.

Food waste grease is a problem for waste professionals worldwide. Grease is considered organic matter and creates blockages and backups in waste collections systems worldwide. These blockages turn into over flows and environmental contamination on a very large scale, the human health risks are enormous with the spreading of disease from this waste product.

Industry leaders have relied on tools such as physical removal to surfactants that send the grease elsewhere down the collection piping systems for others to deal with. The average costs to pump a commercial grease trap is $ 300.00 to $ 500.00. Municipalities mandate that commercial eating establishments maintain there grease traps as often as once per month.

RCS II an Upstate New York firm has been involved in the municipal waste business for thirty two years and see this as a growing problem that needs serious ideas to solve these issues. Mark Reynolds CEO of RCS II saw this as an opportunity to provide a green solution to this growing problem. After researching all the current chemical and biological remedies available today saw a compound with great promise, this compound is called a bio-stimulant nutrient (BSN). This bio-stimulant nutrient was developed at the the University of Hawaii. The problem was this compound would wash away and could not see the proper contact time. The solution was simple find a foam that was compatible with the BSN and the bacteria present in the environment. RCS II developed Bio-Septic F.O.G and a small foam generator to apply the material called a MS Mini Foam Generator. RCS II was awarded a  US Patent this year.

Taking Care of Your Septic System

Some people may be reluctant to buy a home that uses a septic system, which is an onsite system to manage household waste. A septic system processes liquid and solid wastes that come from sinks and toilets, using the laws of nature to eliminate harmful bacteria in household effluent.

If your house is not hooked up to a municipal water system, you may be intimidated by the thought that you alone are responsible for the upkeep of a septic system. There are horror stories about septic system failures, but the issues were likely preventable if the individual components of the system were properly maintained through the years.

A conventional septic system consists of two main parts: a septic tank and a septic drain field.  The tank is a watertight holding tank, usually with an average capacity of about 1,000 gallons. It is often buried underground near the house. Solid wastes are separated in the tank and settle to the bottom to form a layer of sludge. Liquids, on the other hand, exit near the top of the tank and flows out to the drain field, which is located downhill and away from the house.

Regular maintenance of the tank, which involves a professional pumping company emptying out the solids when they reach between 30% and 50% of total capacity, ensures that the tank will remain in good health. Watch what you flush or put down drains: no caustic substances or chemicals should be put into a septic system. In general, any solid matter besides human waste will shorten a septic tank’s lifespan.

In the septic drain field, the wastewater is disbursed via perforated pipes, which lie in gravel-lined trenches, usually two to three feet deep. The pipes are located over a wide area so that the soil can easily absorb the effluent. The natural components of soil neutralize bacteria before they reach groundwater or nearby rivers and lakes. The ideal soil is aerobic, meaning it contains a good amount of cleansing oxygen.

Good drainage and proper soil are critical elements in the efficient functioning of a septic drain field. However, sometimes the soil develops a condition called “hardpan”, which is caused when sodium combines with the soil to produce hardened calcium carbonate deposits. Over time, hardpan can form an impenetrable barrier, preventing the soil from doing its job absorbing and cleaning harmful bacteria.

Keeping the septic drain field in good shape means reducing the amount of sodium, which is found in foods and laundry products, for example. Moreover, do not plant long-rooted plants, shrubs or trees over the leach field because the roots may infiltrate the perforated pipes in the field. Above all, practice water conservation techniques because excessive water usage can drive solids from a septic tank into the distribution box and ultimately, into the drain field.
