If anyone could please help me I would be so thankful.

Over the pass 2 years we have been having to have our Septic tank pumped out about twice a year.

The last time was 10 days ago.

We have never had water back up into the house but the toilets will get where they will not flush or the Bathtubs will start draining very slow then we know it needs to be pumped,

After having it pumped this time we dug up where the distribution box should have been.

To only find that it had disintegrated the only thing that was still there was a concrete bottom. There is a pipe that runs out the septic and across from it is another pipe that runs out to the drain field and to the left there is 2 other pipes that are side by side.

I bought a Polylok 4-Hole Distribution Box with a Solid Cover to replace the old box.Where the box goes is under water we were able to get the water out the area do you think it is holding water cause there is no distribution box to push it out to the drain field?

Was able to get 50 feet of water hose in the pipes running to the drain filed,any help would be really appreciated..

Thanks

The d'box does NOT "push" anything. It just tries to get the water to flow into all the pipes equally.If it is "underwater" that may mean the field is "flooded" in which case there is no where for the septic tank water to go.

The Drain Field is dry most spots are brown where it used to be thick green grass

How the ground is down where the drain field is, determines whether it is dry or not.

we have had over 3 inches of rain so it is most likely soaked.Beings the distribution box disintegrated the pipes running to the drain field was blocked off with muddy dirt we were able to rinse and dig the dirt out of them just hoping that after we replace the box that the drain field will work. Thanks for your knowledge

It will be "iffy", since the dirt would have flowed along the bottom of the pipes, but the drainage holes in the pipes are also on the bottom..

I bought one of those bulbs that screw on the end of a water hose it's called a water pressure bulb to clean the pipes out not sure if it will do any good what do you think? And have also thought about figuring out away to get some air in there to put some 02 in the dirt around the drain lines

There is soil, and gravel, all around the pipe so there is no where for the dirt to wash to, and for proper drainage the soil has to be dry, and loose enough, for water to drain into it. "air in the soil" will not do anything.
