We installed our Aero-Stream aeration system over a month ago. We've waited this long before putting in writing anything about the system. We pumped out our septic tank and installed a riser about one week before installation. In the month since installation we have not had any issues. Before Aero-Stream, our septic system was sluggish, we could only do one load of laundry every other day. Running the dishwasher and doing a load of laundry on the same day was out of the question. Flushing a toilet was, at times, a challenge, especially the one closest to the outflow pipe to the septic tank. Doing a load of laundry cause the gurgling in the toilets and doing more than one load of laundry a day would cause a back-up. We had a "sick" septic system.
We spent quite a bit of money on chemicals to treat the bio mat build up in the drain field, but they were the one who first mentioned an aeration pump in the septic tank, as did the local septic pumping company. This was a year-long struggle. After I started do some research, I settled on the Aero-System based upon the other comments and recommendations on the web site. While comments and recommendations can be suspect, in this case they are true. Purchasing the Aero-Stream system was the best investment we've made. We were looking to install a new drain field, an expense 3 to 4 times the cost of Aero-Stream.
Would we recommend the Aero-Stream system? Absolutely. Our only regret is that we didn't install sooner.
