Many
soil mixtures contain fine particles of clay. This type
of soil can be used in drainfields, but water moves
through it much slower than in gravel or coarse textured
soil. Clay particles can swell and block soil passages
slowing the movement of wastewater even further. Additionally,
clay particles can electronically bond to sodium molecules
contained in wastewater. This can lead to a soil condition
known as hardpan. If soil becomes hardpan the passage
of wastewater is totally blocked and drainfield
failure will follow. There are chemical products
available that can relieve hardpan conditions in clay
soil. One such product is known as Septic Seep.
