Most state and local health department rules require the use of chlorine tablets on any open-discharging septic system where the effluent leaves your property. Chlorine tablets cleans up any leftover bacteria that gets out of the tank minimizing any possible odors. We have them available at our office in Dieterich or you can call us and we can drop them off when we are in your area. The recommended usage is one tablet per month in the chlorine feeder which is the first white pipe located behind your tank.

Note: These chlorine tablets are made especially for septic systems.
They are much stronger than swimming pool tablets.

Air-O-Paks are water soluble packets containing patented bacteria cultures which are able to digest proteins, fats, oils, grease, soaps, and chemicals found in cleaning products and work in both the settling chamber and aeration chamber of aerated units for trouble free septic performance. These are available at our office. You can pick them up, we can UPS them, or you can order them through our online store.
