Addressing a failing septic drain field is crucial to maintaining a functional septic system. Fixing septic drain fields involves identifying the underlying causes of failure, such as soil compaction, bio-mat accumulation, sodium buildup, and organic overloading. Sodium buildup creates a nonpermeable layer called “hard pan soil,” while bio-mat formation obstructs water flow. Solutions like Septic Drainer help break up clogged soils, rejuvenating the drain field by restoring its permeability. Utilizing products like these can prevent costly replacements, extend the life of your system, and save thousands of dollars. RCS II, Inc suggests regular maintenance and monitoring to detect early signs of failure, such as wet spots or foul odors.
