Foul Odors
All the household water from the dishwasher, kitchen sink, toilets, washing machine, baths and showers, goes into the septic tank. If the septic tank isn’t pumped out regularly, it can start to emanate strong pungent odors. They can usually be detected from the kitchen sink or bathroom or outside around the drain field.
Slow Drains and Back-ups
If you notice the kitchen sink or bathtub is draining slower than usual, it may be more than just inconvenient. Other signs include a gurgling toilet, wastewater or sewage backing up into the bathtub or drains.
Drain field
The area of the drain field should look like the rest of the yard, if it is considerable greener and lush, it may indicate a septic system failure. If you notice the grass over the drain field is wet or pooling with water, this indicates a problem. The drain field pipes may be clogged with waste particles, causing wastewater to rise to the surface.
