The drums themselves are 100% root proof. But if there is a gap between any of the pieces parts roots will take advantage. Same with terracotta and concrete. Barry

@barrylukebuilds7894
@barrylukebuilds7894 Күн бұрын
Scott You are on target with the wife thing, truer words have never been written. As far as aeration is concerned it is not necessary and could cause issues with the anaerobic bacteria in the last tank. With addition of oxygen they could die and be sent to the leach field and clog things up. That would be a worse case scenario because the final tank should have very little food so therefore a minimum of bacteria. The leach field will have enough natural oxygen to support aerobic bacteria which will break down any pathogens and the soil will act as a final filter. I know this sounds like I know what I am talking about so maybe I do. And maybe… Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to comment. Barry
