Biological remediation allows an existing septic system to be saved. In nature, oxygen-using (aerobic) bacteria in the soil consume non-living organic material - this is the process nature uses to recycle wastes.
Biological remediation utilizes an aerator in the septic tank to create an oxygen rich environment and cultivate an extensive colony of soil bacteria to consume the waste in the tank. The result is nearly complete consumption of the organic materials entering the septic tank. At the same time, the bacteria are carried into the leach field where they consume the organic material that has accumulated in the underlying soil. The leach field regains and/or maintains its capacity to deliver effluent to the soil for purification.
Septic Preservation Services warrants that following proper installation of the aerobic wastewater treatment system into a sound septic tank, which is followed by a biologically or organically clogged absorption system and operated under normal conditions, the biological remediation will recover the soil's natural drainage abilities within 12 months of installation. Should recovery fail to occur following a 12 month time period, or clogging reoccur after initial recovery, Septic Preservation Services shall credit to the purchaser 100% of the original purchase price minus all testing and engineering fees toward the installation of a new system.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts provides a tax credit of up to $6,000 over 4 years to defray the cost of septic repairs to a primary residence. The credit cannot exceed $1,500 in any year and may be spread out over 4 years. The tax credit is limited to work done on a primary residence only.
