Septic & Bio Tank Treatment

Support a healthier, more efficient septic or wastewater system — naturally.

ProPower Septic & Bio is a concentrated, multi-strain probiotic treatment for domestic and commercial septic, bio-cycle and wastewater systems. It helps control odours, reduce sludge, manage organic waste and support biological activity without relying on harsh chemicals.

Price range: $60.00 through $275.00

Probiotic Support for Septic & Wastewater Systems

A healthy septic or biological wastewater system relies on microorganisms to process organic waste.

Harsh cleaning chemicals, changing wastewater loads, pump-outs and periods of low use can disrupt this biological environment and reduce the efficiency of the system.

ProPower Septic & Bio introduces a proprietary blend of beneficial probiotic microbes designed to support biological wastewater treatment in domestic and commercial systems.

From controlling unpleasant odours to managing sludge and organic waste, ProPower helps maintain a healthier wastewater environment naturally.

Residential property with septic system for onsite wastewater treatment

Controls odours

Helps consume organic odour compounds rather than simply masking them.

Manages sludge

Helps reduce sludge viscosity and supports easier movement through the system.

Reduces H₂S

Helps control hydrogen sulphide — a major source of rotten-egg wastewater odour.

Supports biological treatment

Introduces beneficial microbes to help maintain a healthier wastewater environment.

Helps rejuvenate systems

Ideal after pump-out or when biological activity needs to be re-established.

Domestic & commercial

Suitable for household septic systems through to larger wastewater applications.

Why biological balance matters

Septic tanks and biological wastewater treatment systems depend on microorganisms to break down organic material.

When that biological environment is disrupted, waste can be processed less effectively. Sludge may become thicker, odours can increase and the overall wastewater system can become more difficult to manage.

Hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) is particularly troublesome. It is responsible for the distinctive rotten-egg smell commonly associated with wastewater and septic systems.

Strong disinfectants and harsh chemicals entering the wastewater stream can also affect the microorganisms the treatment process relies upon.

Supporting the biological environment is therefore an important part of maintaining an effective wastewater system.

How ProPower Septic & Bio works

ProPower contains a proprietary blend of probiotic microbes designed to work together within wastewater environments.

Once introduced into the system, these beneficial microbes help process organic material and manage the compounds responsible for sludge and unpleasant odours.

ProPower can be used as part of ongoing system maintenance or to help re-establish biological activity after a pump-out or when a system has been disrupted.

For larger commercial wastewater applications, ProPower can also be used as part of a tailored treatment program based on the size, loading and requirements of the system.

Common wastewater problems ProPower solves

ProPower Septic & Bio can help manage:

  • Septic tank odours

  • Suspended organic solids
  • High organic wastewater loads
  • Biological disruption after pump-out
  • Underperforming biological systems
  • Drainage field performance
  • Wastewater systems affected by harsh chemicals
  • Commercial wastewater odour and sludge problems

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of wastewater can I use ProPower Septic & Bio in?

ProPower is designed for septic tanks, bio-cycle systems and other biological wastewater treatment systems. It can be used in both domestic and larger commercial applications.

How does ProPower Septic & Bio work?

ProPower introduces a proprietary blend of beneficial probiotic microbes into the wastewater system. These microbes help process organic material, manage sludge and consume compounds responsible for unpleasant odours.

Can ProPower help with septic tank smells?

Yes. ProPower helps manage organic odours at their source rather than simply covering them with fragrance. It can also help control hydrogen sulphide, which produces the characteristic rotten-egg smell associated with wastewater.

Can I use ProPower after my septic tank has been pumped out?

Yes. ProPower can be used after pump-out to help re-establish beneficial microbial activity within the wastewater system.

Does ProPower reduce sludge?

ProPower helps process organic material and reduce sludge viscosity, helping maintain a more manageable biological wastewater environment.

Can ProPower help my drainage field?

ProPower is designed to improve the biological processing of organic waste and may help reduce the organic loading reaching the drainage field. It cannot repair a blocked, saturated or mechanically failing drainage field.

Does ProPower replace septic tank pumping or servicing?

No. ProPower is designed to support biological wastewater treatment and ongoing system maintenance. It does not replace required inspections, servicing, pump-outs or repairs.

Can household cleaning chemicals affect my septic system?

Strong disinfectants, bleach and other harsh chemicals can affect the microorganisms biological wastewater systems rely on. Avoid excessive use or disposal of harsh chemicals into the wastewater system.

How much ProPower does an average household need?

As a general guide, an average domestic household uses approximately two litres of ProPower per year. Follow the recommended dosing instructions for your particular system.

Is the product OK for commercial wastewater treatment systems?

Yes. ProPower can be used in larger commercial and wastewater treatment applications. Because system capacity and organic loading vary considerably, contact ProPower for advice on an appropriate treatment and dosing program.

Should I use the 1L or 5L bottle?

The 1L bottle is suitable for smaller or domestic applications. The economical 5L size is better suited to larger systems, regular treatment and commercial wastewater applications.
