See a lot of septic systems in my line of work(excavating) I would suggest to first verify that no toilets or faucets are dripping. A small drip 24/7/365 really adds up and will easily overload a system. Got a water conditioner? can you put that water somewhere else? These are another hidden leaker. Don't know your soil types but look at the drainage on the surface to make sure it is not directed right over the field. Getting rid of the grey water in a separate field is a good idea if you determine that is necessary. Not to code in most areas but that is what I have had to do here at our house as it is < 1/4 acre and we do not have the setbacks to do it right. I did put a small tank (100 gallons) and a filter to reduce the buildup in the bed. What clogs up beds is usually what they call a biomat. It is a layer of solids on the bottom of the bed which becomes impermeable over time. reducing the water load allows it to break down and breath. One other method you might investigate is fracking your bed. This is ok with the powers that be in this municipality. It basically is a process in which they have a big compressor and stick a probe below the bed and give bursts of air. This breaks up the biomat and you are back in business. Hope this helps, Andy

Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
