Question 1

My leach lines are blocked and I just had my septic emptied.Is it better to add anything now or to wait until the level of the tank rises some first?

Accepted Answer

Lava Lamps is correct
Putting this stuff into the toilet or tank itself at any level, it has very little chance to reach the leach fields. If you don't have cleanouts in your leach lines, start digging. If you have no idea where the end of your tank is, get a 8'  long 1/4" pipe with a ball valve and female garden hose fitting
 Tractor supply has them as well as home Depot in more rural areas
 You can locate the end of the tank with it when running water through it. Your distribution box has sewer pipe running into it from the tank. Probably 1 to 2 feet. Dig til you find it. It will be deep and it won't be easy. When you find it and it's concrete, dig around it until you see the seam of the lid. Dig below that, then remove it. Pour this stuff directly into it. Put the lid back on, l
Don't cover it, either until it works or keep trying until you're convinced it isn't going to work.
If you need new lines you will need this exposed anyway. I am by no means saying it will work. I have my doubts if the lines are really bad. Either way, there is no easy fix when it comes to septics.

Question 2

How is this added to the system ? 
Toilet , septic tank or distribution box.

Accepted Answer

Bill, I added it to the distribution box as I have easy access to it and it was nearest the issue. Actually I have two distribution boxes as I pump the septic tank drain and seperated gray water to the third box where I added this product.    Instructions are to add to toilet as I suspect that is the only access most people have. - Bob

Question 3

Where is the  the t section ?

Accepted Answer

My husband says the "T" section is what he calls the "clean-out". Just put it in at the toilet. This product is amazing! We have had lots of problems because we HAD a drought. It breaks loose the TP that clogs the "out pipe" to the drain or leach field. It works within 2 days. Now we use the monthly treatment. No more costly septic cleanout.

Question 4

Can this just be poured in the toilet or di I have to open the lid for the septic tank ???

Accepted Answer

I pour mine in the line between the septic tank and the distribution box. If you can find the distribution box it is a good place to pour it in, also. I need to do it once a month. My system is 45+ years old. Pouring it into the septic tank might dilute it too much. You should ask the manufacturer.
