Read the findings
The report documents observations about the system and its components. An inspection is an evaluation, rather than a guarantee of future performance.

Homeowner questions
Care for the system
you depend on.
Maintenance depends on the system, usage, and local requirements. Ask about a schedule suited to the property.
What are septic baffles?
Baffles help keep the tank’s separated layers from being disturbed and help prevent solids from moving into the next component. Damaged baffles are a reason to arrange an inspection.
How often should a tank be pumped?
Usage and system type affect timing. Ask your maintenance provider and local Sewage Enforcement Officer about the right schedule and township requirements.
Does every system need the same maintenance?
No. Filters, pumps, treatment units, and other components may have additional maintenance requirements.
