U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ETV tested, RetroFAST from Bio-Microbics is designed to be a permanent solution to deliver high levels of treatment and dissolved oxygen to the drainfield. It requires minimal cost to operate and maintain to enhance or repair existing septic systems that have biologically failed, according to the manufacturer. The residential systems use submerged fixed-film and aeration technology of the MicroFAST system in an expandable liner to install directly in the manhole of an existing tank. Without reducing pumpout frequency, the system is easy to install (usually in less than half a day) and may not require a permit. It is available in three flow sizes. 800/753-3278; www.biomicrobics.com.
