How To Properly Care For Your Septic System, The Do’s & Don’ts

The importance of your septic system could be vitally important to the sale and purchase of your home. Recently, I have a property under contract where there was an inspection performed. Upon the inspection it was found that it not only needed a new tank but the drain field replaced as well.  This of course was not accounted for or disclosed and will cost around $6,500 to replace.

Bottom line, this could be a real deal killer if not handled properly to a successful conclusion.  Once purchased it is recommended to follow the tips below, to keep your system in proper working order.

While we don't see many septic systems in Silicon Valley, Calif., we do see them in Saratoga, Calif. mountain properties, and it's wise to keep this info handy.

Hi Winston.   Most don't think of their septic system until they have a problem.  A wise post.
