Washing machines are a leading cause of septic system failures. A typical family washing machine produces enough lint every year to carpet a living room floor! Lint screens and nylon socks trap less than 5% of these particles. These small, light particles don't settle in the septic tank. Instead, they in suspension and are flushed out to the drain field, where they plug up the pores of the soil bed. To compound the problem, much of our clothing is now made of non-biodegradable, synthetic materials such as polyester and nylon. Once these synthetic materials enter the drain field, there is no way to remove them. The Septic Protector is the only product which can eliminate this problem and has been featured on CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, FOX and in Mother Earth News, Family Handyman and numerous other publications.

Notice: The Filtrol 160™ is 7" and projects about 7 1/2" from the wall. From the top fitting to the bottom it is about 13" but you should allow a little more space above the unit to remove the top and clean the filter. Please make sure you have enough space before ordering.

Product Detail

Lint from washing machines is a leading cause of septic system failure, as it plugs up the drain field (for more information click here and for research results click here). The Filtrol 160™ washing machine lint trap is the only filter designed to remove...

Sodium from laundry detergents and other household cleaning products can bond with clay soils and plug up drainfields. Septic Seep releases sodium bonded clays, restoring air and water passages. It also disperses greases and scums which clog soil passages. Septic Seep can be used to restore failed drain fields and is also used for preventive maintenance. Backed by extensive research.

Please note: this is a soil amender that works on the drainfield, it is NOT a septic additive.
