The Importance of Annual Alternative Septic System Inspections
Alternative septic systems are more complex than conventional systems and often rely on mechanical components that require regular monitoring. Annual inspections are crucial for:
- Ensuring Proper Function: Identifying and addressing any operational issues before they lead to system failure.
- Maintaining Regulatory Compliance: Meeting the mandatory annual inspection requirements set by the Loudoun County Health Department.
- Protecting Public Health and the Environment: Preventing the discharge of inadequately treated wastewater.
Extending System Lifespan: Catching minor problems early can prevent costly repairs and prolong the life of your alternative septic system.

- Testing Alarms and Controls: We verify the functionality of alarms and control panels to ensure they are operating as designed.
- Checking for Leaks and Structural Issues: We look for any signs of leaks, cracks, or other structural damage to the system components.
- Assessing Effluent Quality (if applicable): In some cases, we may assess the quality of the treated effluent.
