Soil Absorption

Soil absorption is the ability of soil to combine with, and hold water and other liquids. It is the process of soil absorption that allows a septic system drain field to process effluent from the septic tank. When soil absortion stops it causes flooding of the field resulting in effluent rising to the surface of the soil. Flooding also deprives the soil of oxygen, which in turn kills off beneficial bacteria needing oxygen to survive.

	MEGA-BIO™ is a mega dose industrial-strength bacteria formulation designed specifically for drainfield remediation. It digests fat, oil and grease and other organic solids that block soil absorption, and restores balance to the biomat.
	SEPTIC SEEP™ is a chemical soil conditioner used to treat septic systems with overgrown biomat layers and is the only product that can treat hardpan conditions caused by high clay content in drain field soil.
