How To Fix A Saturated Septic Leach Field
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2023
- A septic leach field, or drain field is a critical component of a septic system. It allows wastewater from the septic tank to flow into the drain line and seep into the soil, where it is naturally cleaned and returned to the environment.

However, over time issues with leach beds can occur causing problems for the rest of your septic system.
Septic Liberator is a mix of trillions of bacteria and specialized enzymes designed to combat and destroy the toughest septic system and drain field disasters. Septic Liberator effectively and completely opens slow flowing drain fields eliminating sewage odors in the process.
✅ Cleans, Clears and Rebalances:
Failing leach and drain fields are the leading cause of septic system failure. Using chemicals kill the system's natural biology, creating another costly problem. Septic Liberator combines natural bacteria with additional enzymes to chop up and digest build-ups and biomats, increasing flow and soil absorption while supporting the system's biological balance.
🌎 Safe - Chemical Free:
Septic Liberator's all-natural bio-enzymatic formula is safe for use in all types of plumbing, drains, septic systems, leach and drain fields, cesspools, and pits. Septic Liberator is made in America and tested to the highest standards to ensure purity and performance.
🏆 A Serious Solution for a Serious Problem:
Septic Liberator's formula combines six strains of enzyme-producing bacteria with an additional four strains of specialist enzymes. Septic Liberator packs a one-two punch, unlike other products that use bacteria or enzymes alone. While Liberator’s live bacterial breakdown and digest biomass, the specialist enzymes attack the most demanding components of the build-up. The result is a healthy, odor-free septic system.
👃 Maintain a Healthy and Odor Free System:
Used by professional contractors, Septic Liberator has its roots in the industrial wastewater industry. Our proprietary formula not only increases flow and soil absorption but also eliminates odor and supports the growth and balance of your system's natural ecosystem. If you need a biological fix, Liberator will get the job done or your money back.

"Septic TAINT?!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
bob faints and falls into a puddle of poo.
Hopefully not!
lol I just died reading this
Nice video, but one of the top reasons why leach fields fail is paint from the homeowner cleaning brushes in the sinks! These folks should educate everyone on what to not put down their septic in the first place.
I have used this product in my septic system in one of my houses.
This product is absolutely awesome. It save me thousands and thousands of dollars.
I recently sold that house and had the septic system inspected. The company couldn’t believe how well it’s operating being that the septic system is over 30 years old.
Thanks for sharing your success story! We're so happy to hear Septic Liberator helped.
Thank you for the review. I just purchased it from Amazon, hopefully it will do the trick.
@tjschwartz42 did it work ?

The process is cut short when you add the cleaner directly into the line leading to the leach field. This method is far better because pouring it into the toilet or the septic tank will dilute the cleaner's strength and that will slow down the results.
The key is to pour undiluted cleaner into the line that takes the cleaner right to the problem area. This is done by removing the secondary septic tank cover, pulling out the filter, and using a garden hose with a funnel. After that, be sure to pour a few gallons in to wash the cleaner to the leach field. Another way that would be even better is to locate the distribution box, if you can, and pour the cleaner and water directly into that.
The goal is to get as much of the treatment to the leach field as possible and this method certainly does that! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Great suggestion, I was just wondering how to speed things up for mine.
I think you are going to spend money on this process. And then ad it to the replacement of the field. The bio treatment is not new
You're right that adding bacteria and enzymes to your septic system is not new, but the science has come a long way in recent years making it fare more effective than before. @@fredrickemp7242
@@ecostrong It absolutely has now progressed at all. They have been trying to go the cheap way and it never works. Been in the field for 50 years. You even have all sorts of aeration. They put rods down in the ground and blow the ground up. Works short term. back in the day they would put sulfuric acid. Works short term. It’s like making a pond bottom. You literally have to scrape it away. Taking an aspirin won’t cut it.
Bob can dig a hole and fill it with gravel. Or horse manure works great for starting bacteria. Good idea though I'd like to see it in action. Anti bacteria soaps and detergents are tough on septic. Esp flushable wipes and lady products.
Agreed, anti-bacterial soap and things like bleach will kill the existing bacteria in the tank and field. Never flush anything that isn't considered "septic safe".
May God bless you, my brother. My question is whether chemicals such as soap and shampoo when they enter the drainage system will affect the crops after they enter the ground. Is it possible to plant in the soil into which the drainage water seeps? Thank you.
Provided your septic system is installed properly and is functioning, you should not have to worry about soap and shampoo effecting plant life.
You do NOT WANT TO plant edible crops over a drainage system period. Please do your research.
Would this product work as a preventative measure when there is nothing wrong?
Yes, however we do have less expensive products designed specifically for septic maintenance. You can check them out here.

This ytv is full of you know what . Once your system is in this shape ,mainly bc you failed to keep your tank cleaned out ,your only choice is start over with a pumped tank and a new drain field installed compliant to your municipal codes
You could empty your tank regularly and still have bio mat accumulating in your leach field. Most systems don't fail overnight. They start to show signs of failure. So long as there is still some flow through the drain field, we can deliver the bacteria to the field and we can break down the bio mat.
Does this still work if we have a salt water softener installed ?
Actually tree roots hate salt water, so that is a plus for having your softner drain into your septic.
@@username8171never knew that. We had a big tree cut down to the right of the area. I am getting a little puddle down from the slant where the tree was So not sure if now the tree is gone the water just isn’t being used up Plus it has been raining every other day !! But the puddle just seems to stay
A water softener can add a lot of salt to your septic tank and leach field bed. Too much salt can harm the bacteria in the septic and cake up the field. That said, this product will still work if you have a water softener.
What I ativ ingredients
The active ingredients are facultative bacteria and enzymes.
I have water on my field lines when it rains hard! I have had dirt put on it and graded to run off the water but nothing is working! I just had my septic tank pumped out and it still back up when it rained heavily! I am at a loss in what to do!
How old is the leach field?
@@ecostrong 3 years and brand new house
@@jimmycasey6400 that doesn't sound like an issue cased by bio mat. It sounds more like the system may have been installed incorrectly. Are you able to contact the contractor who put it in?
@@ecostrong yes and they will not touch it! I have been told I will have to put a new system in that will cost me 6k
@@jimmycasey6400 It has been said that if you can introduce 'aeration' to the effluent, from a separate chamber, that effluent will then have AEROBIC bacteria which is many, many times more effective than the ANAEROBIC bacteria from a typical tank.
The separate chamber would require investment, and would need aeration, likely from a 120v air pump, but could over time 'heal' your drain field like this product claims. Also, make sure your daily water output doesn't approach your drainfield's capacity. And NO grease down the drains. Or Bleach. Or other chemicals. No food disposal.
She said septic taint
I did get sick from that back in 1982. Only time though.
Look, just have it pumped every 2 or 3 years. It is not extremely expensive. $350.00 every 3 years is not a big blow to the wallet.
Pumping your tank out is important, but bio mat can still build up in your leach field even if your tank is regularly emptied. In most cases, septic issues start in the field, and work their way back.
@@ecostrong agreed. Unfortunately, that is what is happening. I have been an idiot over the years and done everything wrong...grease, paper towels down the toilet, paint...etc...So I am basically screwed. Now I know better. However, I do get about 3 years out of a single pump.
Bob should sell the boat anyway it’s a money pit
Agreed...
