INDUSTRIAL 6-MONTH SEPTIC TREATMENT/Hotrod Septic Treatment 16oz /Septic Tank Treatment Dark Blue 2.5W x 7H

A terrific and helpful product!!!

We just built a new home and in Maine code forces you to install a septic tank filter to prevent solids and grease from making its way to the leach field. After 4 months of being in our home I noticed some wetness by the septic tank. Upon investigation it became obvious the tank was leaking out of the covers. I dug up the cover to find the filter completely caked with nasty sludge… I won’t go into too much detail but it was awful. I spoke with the septic system installer and they explained depending on usage I might have to clean the filter every 3-6 months. So I cleaned that nasty filter and reinstalled. 3 month's later the tank was full again. I went through the nasty process again. 3 months later it was clogged again. So I tried this product. I would try anything to avoid digging up the tank or paying $250.00 for someone else to do it. I dumped a 6 month bottle of this down the toilet 6 months ago fully expecting to dig up the tank over that time but nothing…… no went tank, no signs of buildup nothing… I dug up the tank today fully expecting a nearly clogged filter that I’d have to clean. I COULD NOT BELIEVE MY EYES when I saw the filter that was without ANY of the built up sludge I’d seen in the past. This stuff legit works! I’m so confident in it that I won’t dig that tank up for at least another year. I’ll comment back in 12 months to update how it goes. UPDATE: It’s been 10 months since using this product and I am still blown away. There was very little particulates at all on the filter. I can’t believe how good it works and it has totally solved my filter clogging issue. I’ll attach the filter before and after shots. Be warned they are nasty.

I have a 50 year old original septic system. I’ve been in the house 16 years and have had my tanks pumped 3 or 4 times, 3-5 years between. I’ve used Rid-Ex and other treatments all along and when the time came to pump, there was always crust and about 2/3 full of thicker than water sludge in the first tank. The kids have been out of the house now for a few years and now it’s just me and the wife. She works from home for the past few years and goes through A LOT of toilet paper (how much does it take after a pee?!?) so I was worried last Fall when the time came to pump I’d find trouble. The previous pump out said there was a little back draining from the leach field. About 3 months before last Fall’s pump out I used Hot Rod. When you prepare it to pour in the toilet you KNOW this is something waaaay beyond Rid-Ex. So when it was time to pump, I wondered what I’d find. And was I amazed. I even thought I wasted my $400 to get it pumped. No sludge. No crust. No back drain from the field. And very little odor. Just a nice thin slurry of brown water. I’m a believer. I just added my 6 month treatment and have full confidence Hot Rod will keep my system going strong indefinitely. Thanks for peace of mind!!

It works, cut out the leach field smell and stays dry, as we are in the middle of a wetlands in upstate NY we get auto delivery every 6 months

We bought a new house and noticed a smell in the back yard where the septic tank is located. Bought this treatment and used as directed and the smell was gone within two days. Being using every six months for over two years and no smell in the backyard.
