what about the
Septic System
The Town of Webb and Inlet routinely inspect septic systems. At some point you may have a knock on your door asking to perform a dye test. The dye is flushed down your toilet then the area around your home (and/or waterfront) is examined for the appearance of the dye water. This testing doesn't take but a few minutes in your home. For the sake of your family and neighborhood, please cooperate to keep our environment clean and safe.
Maintain your System
1. Regularly inspect your system and pump your tank as necessary.
2. Don't dispose of household hazardous water in sinks or toilets.
3. Care for your drainfield. Do you know where it is? Plant only grass or low groundcover on it. Don't drive over it.
4. Use water efficiently.
When to call a Professional
-
Pooling water or muddy soil around the tank or drainfield or in your basement.
-
Bad smell coming from any aspect of your system.
-
Toilet or sink backs up into your house.
