You Sir are a natural teacher... every part of this post was clear and understandable... no showboating, no distractions. Very much appreciated.
Exactly what we were going for. Thanks so much!
my thoughts exactly!
yes sir!
I approve of this message.
Thanks so much
Im a sewer contractor and very impressed the way you explained the repair of the baffle tee !!!!!
Just had it pumped out and service guy tried to scam me replacing a perfectly fine concrete baffle which was about to cost me $1,200 +.
Thanks for the video, and I’ll share this with others.
Wonderful. Might be simple to those who know but wonderfully helpful for those who didn't know .... like me. I have the exact same circumstance. Things answered that I was curious about were 1) OK to bust off the old concrete baffle and let it fall into the tank? (Yes) 2) cap the top of the Tee (No) 3) straight Tee or Sanitary (Sanitary 4) I didn't realize there was a wet use PVC glue (there is). thank you again this video - well done and helpful.
Very good job and excellent instructions. Thanks!
Thanks for your one handed effort man. You made it look easy. Great info.
Thanks for watching!
Had a septic specialist out this morning, your video made this process so understandable, great job, baffle deterioration
Awesome! I'm glad it was helpful!
Thank you, that was very clear, very helpful and much appreciated. Very well described.
Thanks!
Great Video! Super clear, and shows how straightforward this repair can be. Fabulous job, sir.
Thank you so much! Your video is exactly what we needed! My son and I were going to try and "build up" the old broken concrete baffle and I'm so glad I found your video! This will be so easy as we have already removed the entire lid and can get to the 4 inch drain pipe way easier than you were able to in the video. And we can use both hands! LOL. Thanks again for helping us out and saving us a lot of time and probably a lot of frustration.
Thank you for sharing. I have never seen an extend a lock. Very interesting and informative.
Thanks Don! Yes the extend n lok is a great help in making this repair. It was a game changer for us when we found it!
Brilliant video, very clear and well done. Thank you so much.
Super impressed that “one”you installed that Tee with one hand and “two” had perfect camera shots while doing the install. Well done sir!
Excellent video. You had a difficult situation with where that tank lid was and what you had to do to fix it but wow you hit it out of the park! 👍
Just by chance I found this video a few days after I got my tank pumped out and found some concrete. Now i know what it was from. Thanks
After having nothing but problems with my old concrete tank and about to tackle a new drain field you have also given me an easy how to to fix the scum layer issue. Thank you.
You are welcome!
Master Plumber here, but not a septic expert. I bought a filtered baffle tee and did not fit because of the disintegrating baffle. Thank you for this video. I now know to break out the baffle to fit the filter on. Learning every day.
Thank you for posting this! You're like a frickin super hero 😁👍
👍👍👍👍
Buying an older home that had the septic pumped and a baffle replaced. Now we know what's going on. Thank you very much for this thorough visual and explanation. I'm certain you've helped many many folks with this RUclips Vlog. 😊

Thank you for this. Exact same issue on my septic. saved me a lot of $$$
Great to hear!
I agree I've been a plumber for a long time but in a area where we didn't have many septic systems no I live where there are I appreciate your knowledge and showing fitting I've never seen
Yes it is a great product. Thanks!
I really enjoy informative videos like this. Great work.
Thanks so much!
I'm going to be doing this next week and had no idea how to go about it because the outlet pipe was in like yours. Thank you!!!!!
Glad I could help!
Hi from Trinidad great job and the first time i have seen an extend lock
Thanks! The extend n lok is a huge time and effort saver!
Thanks for doing this video. This is what I will be doing today…when I bought this house, I knew it had failed the inspection, but was waiting until spring to install a whole new system. I rolled the dice on it not backing up…but came up short.
I am hopeful that by installing this…I can buy some time until I get a chance to design and install a new system.
Thank you so much for detail explaining.
Thank you! Great and simple explanation!
Glad it was helpful!
good video for those of us who u/s whats going on here, thanks for taking the time to make it!! 🤠
Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you sir!
You are welcome!
exactly the information I was looking for explained clearly thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Man! Great video and solved my problem perfectly! Soooo much appreciated!
this will solve our problem in our septic tank. thanks man. I'm from Philippines.
Great! I'm glad it was helpful.
Hello,
Thank You a great video, I have a good understanding of how it works.
Glad it helped!
man this is what I need it that'll save me money thank you for your help
i got some people looking at it and they told me that canot be fix they said I have to replace the ta6
If the tank is structurally compromised it could need replacing. But if the outlet device is the only thing that is in need of repair, the tank would not need to be replaced.
Never thought I would like a septic video.
Never say never! Thanks!
Thankyou for the info and great demonstation
Thanks for watching!
Really great video. Thanks!
Thank you, Scott.
What a great video. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
My body hurts just watching this!! I'm dealing with a septic clog but is no where near this involved! Good job taking this in stride.
Thank you for a great video!
Excellent video. I thought about this possibility with my 40 year old concrete tank but didn't think I had enough clearance to install it and my existing pipe needed an extension. Now I feel comfortable going ahead with the project. Thanks!
Awesome! You can do it!
Thank you! I just completed doing this after my septic man said i needed it. Had to wait a week to get the poly loc thingy in the mail. Tank wasn't close to full in a weeks time. I measured the depth on the congrete baffle to outlet and it was 20". So I made my device that to match that. Have had it pumped every 3-4 years for 20 years with no proplems until concrete baffle fell apart. Once again, Thank you so much!
Very comprehensive. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
thanks for the help... selling my house and theyre telling me my baffle needs replaced . thanks for saving me money and not having to call a company in to do it!!!
No problem Brad. Glad it was helpful!
Need to put that kit on an amazon store ! I need this now i can't wait and i cant find it local !
What a great video! Ty for teaching us!
You are so welcome!
When we bought our home the spectic inspection revealed a broken T connector in the one system (there’s 2 here!) It was gonna cost me around $450 for a new one to be made but he wouldn’t install. Referred me to the guy who pumps out the tank. But now that I understand what he was talking about I might just tackle it myself
Great job! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much!
Thanks for the video. Had my septic pumped today and the technician was trying to describe this same thing to me. He said my original baffle is gone. Now that I have seen you assemble and install a baffle, I can fix mine.
Glad it helped!
I want to if I need a license to fix mine. Cause someone was telling me it could be illegal to do it yourself.
Great video, very informative.
Thanks so much!
Great footage and tutorial, thanks.
Thanks!
Great video. You sir are the man.
Excellent help thank you
Thanks bro, you saved me a fortune.
Awesome! Glad I could help!
Thanks great video greetings from Ireland
Exellent! Thank you.
Great directions - easy to tackle.
I'm glad it helped!
God bless all you septic tank people for doing the dirty work.
And GO BLUE!
Great video, just subscribed! This morning we discovered that our tank top collapsed. There’s a 2’ x 3’ hole that opened up. Someone is coming over tomorrow to inspect it. Hopefully we don’t have to replace the whole tank.
Thanks! Hopefully they will be able to repair the collapsed portion. Depends mostly on the condition of the rest of the tank. Good luck!
Excellent. I learned something.
Thank you sir. Go Blue!
You're welcome
Good job. Thanks for posting this...👍💯🎯
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Thx for the help!
Had my septic tank pumped the other day, and the pvc piece going down had fallen off, and the guy pumping it acted like it wasn't a big deal, happens all the time. Just cover the holes back up. I'm glad I did some research while it's still basically empty
Thank you so much very helpful
You explained things clearly for me a novice , to understand.
They want $6K for this. Even if I have to dig a new vein I am equipped!
Thanks boss

Extender into T first, then whole assembly into drain pipe. Work smarter, not harder. 👍
Good job. Good advice.
Glad it was helpful!
Super nice job! Wish you were near by.
Thanks for the great info . I have to replace mine.
Glad to help
That's a great idea.
I had a friend with a backhoe install a 500 gallon concrete tank for me 45 years ago. I live alone and don't let any grease get in the tank nor water from my clothes washer. I originally put 3 packages of Fleischmsns yeast in the tank. About 10 years ago, I looked in the tank and there was a floating crust about half inch thick and I dragged my bar along the bottom and it felt like there was about 4 or 5 inches of sediment.Added yeast again. Opened the rank recently and the crust and the sediment were gone. There was only black water that was almost clear. Added more yeast. Never had the tank pumped.
I did learn a lot.
Should you add a filter in that pipe ? Thanks for tne video very helpful ! Oh you answerd it at end of video 😆
We try to cover everything! ;-)
Nice video! All except for the U of M hat 😀....Go Bucks!
Appreciate it! Go Blue!

Thank you so much bro! Great diy video! We just bought a place with this exact issue and now I can take care of it! you just saved us boo coo
Awesome! Glad it was helpful.
And you only needed one hand. Good job.
good info
I'm not sure if it's my baffle or my pipe, but whatever is coming through the rear of my tank has come loose, and water is seeping thought the tank into the ground. Just had my tank pumped a few months ago, but I think I'm going to have to pump it again, and do a repair similar to this, probably even replacing some pipe on the outside. Thanks for the video, and Go Blue!!!
This video is a little off topic but towards the end has a picture that could be helpful for your repair: ruclips.net/video/SQJ7aDHEW2k/видео.html
This is definitely a video I will be making soon. Thanks.
