With access to a little knowledge, Homeowners can learn how their Septic System functions and how to prolong its’ useful life.  Lack of this knowledge can lead to Septic System Problems and premature Drainfield Failure.  Effective Septic System Care and Maintenance starts with a basic understanding of how your system treats and handles household water, see "Septic System Design" (click here).

Clothes fibers (lint) are a major component in your Laundry Water.  The lint fibers (primarily synthetics like nylon or polyester) are very small and are non-biodegradable.  These fibers are not effectively captured by a conventional “Sock-type or Metal Mesh-type” Washing Machine Lint Traps... studies have shown that they catch only 50% of the fibers, usually the larger ones.  Synthetic fibers do not decompose, float through the Septic Tank to the Drainfield, and then settle out creating an impenetrable mat.  Even natural fibers like cotton, wool, hair or pet fur are a problem, since they decompose very slowly.  An easy way to improve your Septic System Maintenance (see "FAQs", click here) is to use the Septic Protector Filtrol 160™ Laundry Lint Filter... capture over 90% of the clothes fibers, BOTH the larger ones and the small ones, (see "Septic Protector", click here).

Excessive Water Flow Rate into the Septic Tank must be controlled.  All Septic Parts and Designs require a reasonable amount of time to allow particles to settle out of the water in the tank.  If larger volumes of water (like washing machine loads) are sent too frequently to the tank during a day, the water gets “stirred up”.  This interferes with the settling out of some of the materials.  Effective Septic Filters Maintenance practices will require controlling water flow to reduce Septic System Problems and premature Septic Products Failure.  Homeowners will need to make small changes to habits like washing all of the clothes on one day of the week.  A better alternative is to wash one or two loads of clothes each day of the week… one load in the morning & one load in the evening.  For more information, see "Septic System Design" (click here).
