7 How many septic additives are on the market today? How many different types of additives are there? What are the Bacteria/Enzyme based products designed for? Do the Bacteria/Enzyme based products work on the drain field?

8 Its estimated there are 50,000,000 residential septic systems in the US today It s estimated that the bacteria/enzyme market does $70,000, a year in sales At an average price of $ per box of these products that s 7,000,000 applications a year of these bacteria/enzyme based products. The USEPA also estimates 25% of these 50,000,000 septic systems are failing or have already failed. Why are so many systems failing when people are adding these products?

9 Are not designed to work on the soil in the drain field area of a system. They are designed to remove organic material from the tank. We need to think about treating the drain field soil because that s where according to the industry 90% of failures happen in the drain field. How long is the average life of a new drain field left untreated?

10 Industry standards 8-10 Years Can you prolong the life of your drain field, yes you can. Have your system pumped and inspected every two years by a professional Septic Company Add Liquid Gypsum solution drives the sodium out of the soil.

13 The real problem is Sodium Sodium combines with the soil and creates hard pan preventing the soil from draining. Sodium comes from our diets, water softeners and the soaps we use. The average consumer discharges 56 lbs of Sodium in a septic system per year.

14 You sure can by using Liquid Gypsum Have your system pumped and inspected If your drain field pipes are full of debris have the debris removed by a septic company Add four gallons of Liquid Gypsum per thousand gallon septic tank. Add the product evenly throughout the Drain Field pipes.

15

16 Determine what type of system you Have your tank, cesspool, drywell and distribution box espoused and pumped

17 If you have a conventional piped leach field ether a gravity or pump up system have the drainage lines jetted and vacuumed out.

20 Leaving a small amount of water in your sewer jet allows you to add Septic Drainer under the pressure of your sewer jet or using a siphon on a pressure washer

21

22 After having these structures vacuumed out be sure to pressure wash the walls completely removing all debris from side walls and then vacuuming this debris. Most pressure washers have a siphon attachment that allows you to inject a liquid in the water stream. Placing Septic Drainer under pressure helps get the product in the right places while under pressure.

23 How much product do I use? One gallon in any drain every six months

24 Adding Aerobic Bacteria and an Oxidizer after an application of Liquid Gypsum goes a long in helping remove Bio-Mat buildup in the your pipes. We recommend that you follow that suppliers application instructions.

25 Terra-Lift Machine

26 Terra-lifting breaks up hardpan soil Using Liquid Gypsum during a Terra-Lifting project helps break up the Hard Pan Soil in between the soil that Terra-Lifting cannot reach Over time untreated Terra-Lifting project tends to close up again. Using Liquid Gypsum helps prevent the soil from closing up after a Terra-Lifting project.

27 Does adding Air to a system work? Yes adding air feeds Aerobic Bacteria Aerobic Bacteria consumes Bio-Mat

28 Septic Systems has both Aerobic Bacteria and Anaerobic Bacteria Aerobic Bacteria Requires air to live Anaerobic Bacteria does not require air to survive. Anaerobic Bacteria produce a waste product that s been called Bio-Mat Aerobic Bacteria consumes Bio-Mat so adding Aerobic Bacteria or adding air helps remove Bio-mat build up and excess organic materials that passed by the septic tank

29 How do you increase your business without adding staff and equipment? Lets look at an average profit from a septic Pumping Company using a one truck model. Lets say you pump 6 tanks a day at $ per tank for a total of $ Expenses per day of; Disposal $ Fuel and Equip $ labor and adm costs$ , insurance and advertizing $ Profit before taxes $ per day

30 The US EPA estimates 25% of all systems are in failure mode or have failed! 25% of 6 systems seen per day is 1.5 systems 1.5 systems per day times $ 1, is $ 2, potential profit per day. Costs associated with restoration using Septic Drainer $ per job plus labor and equipment costs.

31 Your profit margin pumping tanks? $ / $ = 15% profit Selling Septic Drainer for preventative maintenance $ per gallon Your costs per gallon in quaintly $ plus shipping in pallets of 144 gallons $ 49.99/$ =.4998% profit $ plus $ (6) customers $ / $ = 35% Profit
