An Aeration Treatment Unit (ATU) does not belong in the 1st Compartment or 1st Chamber of the Primary Septic Tank. If you install the ATU in the 2nd Compartment or 2nd Chamber, it won't prevent proper settling or separation of the solids from the liquid. You only want to Oxygenate the Effluent, not agitate the wastewater, which stirs everything up. Otherwise, add a Secondary Tank specifically for the Aeration Equipment, with an Effluent Filter in the Outlet Baffle, and the water will be basically clean when it enters the Leaching Field.

Septic field - Hydrojetting may clear the lines, but the real problem might be that the gravel is gunked full. Our septic field is 46 years old. How can I find out if the gravel is clogged? Dig? Rent an excavator? $6900 Canadian ($5550 US) is the price quote I got for hydrojetting (5 leaching pipes x 60' each). Should I be putting that money into a new septic system? (~$30,000) If the new field lasts 30 years, that's $1000 per year. Is there any way to predict if hydrojetting will get me 7 years? In this video we didn't see a vacuum sucking the results of the hydrojet backwards. Even with a vacuum sucking at the head of each pipe, some of the material broken up by the hydrojet will go through the pipe's perforations. (I have no idea how big those perforations are.) If the gravel is not already clogged, this will add more gunk to clog it. Problem? Ground-Penetrating Radar can find the location of septic fields. Is there any way to see the density of clogging in the gravel?

As a plumber I feel like all pressure washer, sewerage line unblocking tutorials are offering false hope for people with real blockages, as the blockage in this video could be cleared with a line plunger. Blockages can mostly be caused by tree roots, take your pressure washer and your jetting head and see if it can cut some small tree roots, I'd bet it can not. If you wanted to go down this path because you have a pressure washer and your happy to send some money getting hose and attachments then that's ok still probably won't work, but don't buy a pressure washer for this job because it has simulator capabilities to a line plunger. I'm not telling people they should engage a plumber but if you want the job done right pay the person who has most probably spent $50,000 buying the right equipment for the job. Great tutorial and explanation.

He did explain. It’s obviously testing “too much” back pressure and over 2.8 PSI if air is venting through the valve so yes, it’s testing the system. If it’s venting air you have a clogged line and the pump isn’t operating at capacity and in fact is under stress. The line needs to be cleared or serviced prior to the pump eventually overheating I assume.
