Why have your septic tank inspected?
Septic tank inspection of your system components can prevent damage to soil and water around your home and may also extend the useful life of your system. Without periodic inspections, your system could backup and result in a septic tank failure. The cost to replace a residential septic treatment system could range between $7,000 and $15,000.
Type of system | Frequency of inspection |
Simple gravity with or without pump | Every 3 years |
Pressure distribution* | Every 2 years *Clark County received a waiver from WA-DOH for inspection every 2 years. |
All alternative systems (sand mounds, ATU, Glendons, etc.)All food establishments | Yearly Note: Some systems are so complex the manufacturer recommends inspection more often for the first 2 years; be sure to meet the conditions of your warranty. |
All systems | Ensure that a current report of system status is on file with Clark County Public Health when a property served by anon-site septic system is offered for sale. The report of system status is considered current for purposes of this subsection if it was completed within one (1) year of the date of sale. You can check your homes status here |
