Plumbing Services in Farmington, NM

We Offer Septic Services, Including Leach Line Rejuvenation!

If your home or business relies on a septic system, you need to take care of it for effective wastewater management and environmental protection. At R.A. Biel Plumbing & Heating, Inc., we offer comprehensive septic services that can address various issues and focus on maintaining the efficiency and longevity of your system. 

One of our key offerings is leach line rejuvenation, a highly effective solution for common problems that can affect your drain field. This service specifically targets the drain field, which is the part of your septic system that treats and disperses wastewater into the soil. Over time, drain fields can become clogged with biomat (a slimy layer of bacteria), sludge, or compacted soil, leading to slow drainage, back-ups, and foul smells. We can restore your drain field's functionality without extensive excavation, avoiding major disruption to your property. 

Our team accomplishes leach line rejuvenation using the advanced TerraLift system. This process involves inserting a narrow probe into the ground around your drain field, typically every few feet. The TerraLift then injects bursts of highly pressurized air into the soil. This pneumatic fracturing breaks up the compacted soil and biomat layers, creating new pathways for water to percolate and promoting oxygen flow, which helps restore the natural biological treatment process.

You may need septic services or leach line rejuvenation if you notice any of the following warning signs:

• Consistently slow drains
• Frequent backups in sinks, toilets, or showers
• Unpleasant odors, particularly a strong sewage smell around your drain field or in your yard
• Lush, green patches of grass directly above your drain field, even during dry spells
• Your septic tank requires more frequent pumping than usual
