Anyone with a conventional septic with a drain field use any kind of treatment for it? My buddy who is a master plumber sells Bioclean and has advised me to start using it as my septic system is approaching it's useful life term. It was first installed in 1970 and then had an addition to the drain field done in the late 1980s when that was still permitted. So I am wondering what anyone else uses in their septic systems? If it craps out (no pun intended) I will have to install a new drain field at $8-10K. If I have to go with a mound system the cost will be $14K or more.
I just want to try and keep the system for a year or two before I have to go out of pocket for a new drain field.
