Our septic systems, a very sophisticated wastewater treatment facility, handle the wastewater produced by our homes. If the system isn’t handled correctly or routine maintenance isn’t performed regularly, it can be damaged. Every system around us needs some essential elements to be healthy and functional. Like that, our septic systems also need some additional components to function effectively. With the right routine maintenance, being careful with what we put down the toilets, and adding the necessary elements, the septic tanks' lifespan can be extended for many years.

If these bacteria aren’t maintained, your septic system will be harmed greatly because the decomposing part cannot be completed.
Enzymes are proteins that feed the bacteria in the septic tank. The breakdown of waste is accelerated by the enzymes acting as a catalyst. Enzymes bind waste molecules and convert them into nutrients that bacteria can take. Some enzyme products might even contain brand-new microorganisms or additional nutrients.
