Compare Septic Genie to other Treatment Methods
| Treatment Method | Creates aerobic environment | Grows thriving colony of powerful aerobic bacteria to digest organic solids (waste from your home and biomat) | Safe for the environment, people, pets | Extends life of septic system |
| Septic Genie System | Yes, with non-depletable oxygen | Yes, the patented Septic Genie Aerobic Bacteria Generator (ABG) is the only septic technology that creates a unique environment rich with non-depletable oxygen where our patented powerful natural bacteria thrives and rapidly multiplies, digesting 90%+ of organic solids in the tank, and clearing the biomat clogging the drain field. | Yes | Yes |
| Aerobic Systems | Yes, with extremely depletable dissolved oxygen (DO) | No | Yes | Maybe – does nothing to ensure ‘good’ bacteria thrive over long term. |
| Bacteria or Enzyme Additives | No | Short term fix. Due to anaerobic environment, ‘good’ bacteria dies quickly, requires frequent addition of new bacteria. If you stop adding new bacteria, failure will likely reoccur. |
Yes | No – can cause premature septic system failure. Enzymes in these products cause more suspended solids in the tank water, solids then pass to the drain field and cause system failure. |
| Replace drain field | No | No, short term fix. Biomat will form again and clog new drain field over time. |
Requires disposal of old drain field (contaminated materials) | Yes – at a cost of $5,000 to $50,000 |
| Pumping septic tank | No | No | No | Short term fix only. Removes solids from tank, but if you make no other changes, they will build up again. |
