Septic Remediation | Anchor Drain & Sewer Cleaning

Failed or failing septic systemscan be restored.

Replacing a septic system does not have to be the answer to restoration of a failed or failing system. Without the high cost and destructive process of excavating, Anchor Sewer and Drain Cleaning has the means of saving your septic system. This is accomplished by installing one of the various types of Pirana Aerobic Bacterial Generators from Pirana, LLC.

Traditionally, septic systems operate by dumping waste water into a tank where anaerobic bacteria attempts digestion. Because traditional septic systems are powered by anaerobic bacteria, traditional septic systems will fail, given enough time. In some cases, it is 30 50 years. In others, less than 15 years before an anaerobic septic system fails. Currently, the national average for the life span of a septic system is 20 years.

What causes septic system failure is the same action by which they are intended to work. Anaerobic bacterial action.

Anaerobic bacteria takes a much longer time period to digest waste. The waste is broken down and will find its way to the leach field where it must be consumed by more anaerobic action. This is where the failing system originates. Anaerobic bacteria produces a slime we call Bio-mat (biological material). The bio-mat fills the soil, inhibiting the soil from absorbing effluent sent from the septic tank.

By installing a Pirana Bacteria Generation System, restoration of a failed or failing septic system begins with aerobic bacteria (bacteria requiring oxygen). Aerobicbacteriawill colonize in theaerated environment we create in the septic tank. Now, the aerobic bacteria consumes the waste in the tank and continues in the effluent in the drain field. In the drain field, or leach field, the aerobic bacteria willfeed off of the bio-mat, restoringabsorption.

There are similar systems available for installation. However, a Pirana brand aerobic bacterial generator uses a special blend of facultative anaerobe. Essentially, a micro-organism that has the ability to switch between the oxygenated state and an oxygen depleted environment. When oxygen is available, the anaerobe will strip the oxygen molecule (like taking a breath) and go back to work.

In order to produce aerobic bacteria, it must have oxygen and a food source. The food source is easy enough to comprehend in origin. However, oxygen must be supplied. This is really the bulk of the work in converting from anaerobic to aerobic. We must pump air in and diffuse the air to provide a supporting, oxygen saturation content for the aerobic bacteria. By installing an air line, diffuser created by Pirana and an air pump, Pirana systems have the ability to sustain and colonize the tank with aerobic bacteria. Aside from facultative bacteria coming from waste, The Pirana unit is packaged with a supply of bacteria to jump start the system.

Pirana systems provide several benefits:
