Unfortunately this is not true - Your septic tank needs emptying regularly to remove the settled solids, preventing them from moving through the system. Bacterial treatment also helps to improve and maintain the levels of bacteria within the tank.
2. You aren't allowed to use any chemicals or cleaning products in your septic tank.
The thought here is that chemicals will kill the bacteria however certain chemicals and detergents can be used safely. Try to use laundry and dishwasher soaps that have low or no phosphate in them. Bleach and disinfectants can kill the bacteria in the tank so use sparingly and in small amounts. Or, septic treatment like our Biotreat365 microbial formula, can help to replenish bacteria lost through overuse of chemicals.
