Septic System Question
Hello,
Havew the typical septic system with a "chamber" that feeds several perforated pipes in a leaching field. Believe the pipes are nestled in gravel, and covered with soil. These pipes with the holes are, I believe, clogged. Or, the gravel and surrounding soil are "clogged. Question: Before I call anyone in: a. Are there treatments, or perhaps steam-cleaning for the perforated pipes that is effective ? b. Are there treatments or steam cleaning for the gravel and/or surrounding soil ? Are any of these doable without removing any over-soil ? e.g. just a steam probe inserted thru the main feeder pipe to the field, or... ? I keep thinking of steam, as it's hard to believe anything else might work. Thoughts ? Thanks, Bob |
