Key Considerations Before Scheduling a Septic System Inspection
Before scheduling a septic system inspection, consider the age of your system, any recent issues or maintenance, the size of your property, and local regulations. These factors can impact the scope and timing of the inspection, ensuring it meets your needs and complies with regulations.
- Ensure A Water Supply is Available.
- Do Not Block Access to the Septic System.
- Prepare for Potential Heavy Equipment Access.
- Locate and Mark Septic System Components Using a Map or Diagram.
- Remove Pets and Secure Animals.
- Avoid Pumping the Septic Tank Before Inspection.

Legal Protection in Septic Inspections: Why Private Inspectors (P.I.R) Matter.
Only an Engineer, ROWP with Planner (PL), or Private Inspector Designation (P.I.R) can legally provide you with the inspection you will require, giving you legal recourse should human errors be made. Standard procedures for septic system inspections have been created by the industry's governing body, ASTTBC, and for a good reason.
Without the proper credentials, you are not protected by law. Home inspections, government-certified septic inspections, and well inspections are an absolute must for anyone before buying or selling a home.
