Cheap septic care gets expensive fast. If you’re using anything today, it likely falls into one of these categories.
THE BIOLOGICAL COUNTERPUNCH
Two ingredients. Six strains. One monthly dose.
The generalist. Tolerates variable tank conditions and produces enzymes that start waste breakdown within hours of entering your system.
The grease specialist. Targets FOG buildup before it reaches your drain field, where it causes the most expensive damage.
Handles food waste and household sugars that would otherwise accelerate solid accumulation in your tank.
Breaks down toilet paper and plant fibers that form the sludge layer at the bottom of your tank.
Reinforces primary digestion and thrives in the low-oxygen conditions deep within a working septic tank.
Tackles what other strains leave behind — soaps, detergents, and residual organic compounds from household wastewater.
Same job. Completely different approach.
