in 1957, the United States Department of Health, Education and Welfare stated, “There are no known chemicals, yeasts, bacteria, enzymes or other substances capable of eliminating or reducing the solids and scum in a septic tank.” The EPA says that some of these products “accelerate system failure” because the don’t remove the sludge, they just move it further down the system.
Using an enzyme-based treatment in your tank doesn’t just mess up your tank, it messes up municipal wastewater treatment systems. Black and gray water dumped at a campsite goes straight to the nearest treatment plant. Our product uses a living consortium of ten or more microbes that are grown together to actually digest and liquify solids and sludge, converting them into water and carbon dioxide.
