Discover The Truth About Septic Tank Inspection

Installing a septic tank is the best way to process waste from your house or company. Congratulations on taking this important step. Now you need to know what septic tank inspection is about since lack of inspection could lead to damages that will cost you a lot of money. The law also requires that you have your tank inspected.

Reasons Why You Need To Have Your Septic System Inspected

• Your septic tank must be pumped out at least once every three years. However, this depends on the size of your family or staff. Inspecting your septic system regularly will help you know when you need to pump it.

• When your plumber comes to inspect your system, he will also check for other problems like leaks. The earlier these problems are discovered the better. Delay might turn small issues to catastrophes, and you might end up spending a lot of money in replacing the tank.

• Septic tanks that are not well maintained can easily pollute the environment. Stinking tank causes air pollution, and leaks pose a threat to water resources near you. Thus, you must ensure that your system is inspected by a professional.

• Every home owner wants a septic system that will serve the family for years. If you want to advance the performance of your septic system, you must ensure that it is inspected regularly. This servicing improves the tanks ability to keep the waste for long.

What Do Septic Tank Inspectors Look For?
• The first thing the inspectors will ask for are records that show when the system was installed and how often it has been pumped. That is why you must keep detailed records of your septic system.

• The sludge is not supposed to cover more than a third of the tank’s volume. So, the inspectors will use a special equipment to determine the level of the sludge. Then you will be advised on the most appropriate time to pump your tank.

• The drain field can cause a potential threat to water resources near you. Thus, inspectors will check how far it is from these resources. They will also check the soil in the drain field for sogginess.

• Lastly, the inspectors might be interested in a head count of all your family members or employees. This should not worry you. It is a very important step in determining whether the system you have installed can cater for these people adequately.

Septic Tank Inspection Cost in Toronto

Septic systems are inspected by local authorities. The cost varies from one location to another but most households spend $100 to $200. Some authorities have a kitty for such tasks so contact the office in your location for more information.

General Septic Tank Problems Common In Many Households

• Have you ever packed your vehicle on top on your tank? Vehicles and heavy machinery can exert a lot of pressure on the tank causing it to collapse. Therefore, you need to be on the lookout and if you suspect something is wrong, call a plumber immediately.

• Several home owners, especially those in the countryside, have reported cases where roots and shrubs penetrated into the tank or pipes leading to the tank. This is a huge problem because the cracks created by these roots can damage the system.

• Damage to the pipes. Pipes leading to the tank can be clogged or burst under intense pressure. This is a very ordinary problem whether you live in the city or countryside. The baffle, which is the barrier that stops the sludge from flowing into the drain field, can also collapse.
