On-site waste systems inspection very limited, engage specialist: The inspection of on-site waste systems is very limited. We check the system for the presence of alarms on the septic pump tanks, which are evaluated by pushing the test button. The drain field is visually inspected for obvious signs of failure such as sewage breakout. Compliance with local regulations or system adequacy is beyond the scope of this inspection. We strongly encourage you to obtain a complete inspection by a qualified septic contractor prior to closing.
Near/at end useful life, budget for replacement: The drain, waste or vents are near or at the end of their useful lives. We recommend establishing a budget to replace the drain, waste, vents.
Past end useful life, budget for replacement: The drain, waste or vents are past the end of their useful lives. We recommend establishing a budget to replace the drain, waste, vents.
Consider video drain line inspection: A video drain line inspection can reveal hidden problems, including issues in the main drain that connects to the municipal sewer. Consider a video drain line inspection to determine if there are additional concerns that can’t be detected within the scope of a home inspection.
