How to convert to Aerobic?

[joslinya]

I have a septic system with lateral lines. Lines are on a slight slope so in addition to the 1000 gal. trash tank I have a 1000 gal. pump/lift tank. I'm in Mustang OK where we've had record rainfall over the last year. I am now experiencing water surfacing when the pump activates.

The septic guys I talked to say the field is saturated and I need to convert to aerobic. The three companies I talked to use all in one tanks but would use my existing trash tank and cave in my existing pump/lift tank. In my research it seems I might be able to drop in an aeration tank between the existing trash and pump/lift tanks and add lines and sprinkler heads for distribution of the effluent.

Does anyone have experience with this they can share?

Thanks in advance.

What is the aeration tank going to add other than another pump to maintain? It won't make the extra water that is saturating your field go away.

Instead of pumping untreated water into the saturated field the treated water would be distributed on the grass through the sprinkler heads.

OK that makes sense. You'll have nice green grass and have to cut it twice a week.
