Septic inspections are not only required by the Washington State Department of Health (DOH), but they also play a crucial role in keeping your septic system healthy, efficient, and free from costly, unforeseen repairs. Whether you’re a homeowner maintaining your system or preparing for a real estate sale, routine inspections ensure your system is in top shape.
Septic inspections are essential for both long-term care and public health. They help
→ Identify whether your tank needs pumping, avoiding unnecessary or delayed maintenance.
→ Preserve the health of the bacterial environment in your tank, which is vital for waste breakdown.
→ Prevent small issues from turning into expensive repairs.
→ Ensure compliance with Washington State DOH requirements.
→ If you haven’t had a septic inspection in the last year (or three for gravity systems), schedule one today. Annual inspections are recommended for most systems.
→ Before pumping, get a septic inspection. It’ll tell you if pumping is needed, ensure system components are working, and save you money in the long run.
→ Septic inspections are required when selling a home, ideally before entering a purchase agreement. Address issues early to avoid complications during closing.
