At what locations should level checks be performed during installation?

Level checks should be performed at the house sewer, septic tank, effluent line, and soil absorption bed to ensure that the system is functioning properly and that there is no potential for backups or improper drainage. Each of these locations plays a critical role in the overall operation of an on-site sewage facility.

Performing level checks at the house sewer helps to verify that the wastewater is flowing correctly into the septic tank without any blockages. Checking the septic tank ensures that the wastewater is settling appropriately, allowing for the separation of solids and liquids. By inspecting the effluent line, you can confirm that treated liquid is being transported away from the tank towards the soil absorption area without any disruptions. Finally, assessing the soil absorption bed is essential to make sure that the effluent is properly percolating through the soil, which is vital for further treatment and prevention of surface contamination.

Overall, conducting level checks at all these key locations is essential for the reliable operation and maintenance of the on-site sewage treatment system.
