It’s BBQ and outdoor party season! Make sure your septic system is safe for your family!

Spring is here — have you had your routine septic system inspection yet? 🌱

After a long winter of rain, wind, and freezing temps, your septic system may have taken a hit. Fallen branches, shifting soil, or flooding can all cause hidden issues.

One of the most important things to check? Your septic lid.

Lids can crack, weaken, or shift during winter — creating a serious safety hazard for kids, pets, and anyone walking in your yard.

✔️ Make sure your lid is secure and properly seated
✔️ Avoid driving or placing heavy objects over it
✔️ Consider upgrading older lids for added safety

Routine inspections catch small problems before they turn into costly repairs — and more importantly, help keep your family safe.

Not sure where your system is or what condition it’s in?
Above Grade Septic is here to help.

With the recent wind storms we have experienced here in the Puget Sound region, many homes have lost power and are still without. Here are some things to remember about your septic system if there is a power failure at your home.

*If your septic system has a pump, that pump will not function without power so conserve on water used inside the home.
* Flush only when necessary
* Take very short showers
* Take laundry to the laundromat

* The alarm on your septic system might turn on after power is restored. If the alarm does turn on, silence the alarm but do not turn the power off to the septic system. Refrain from water usage so your system can catch up and evacuate the water that was used during the outage. This may take some time, be patient.

If the alarm does not clear itself within 24 hours and you have been conservative on water usage, call your septic service maintenance provider.

*Included are pictures of some of the most common alarm panels we see. To silence alarms, there will either be a button or a toggle switch.

*It is unfortunate yet common for pumps and electrical components to fail after power outages or power surges. If your alarm sounds and does not clear itself we highly recommend having your service provider out to evaluate the system. This could be crucial to preventing a backup in your home as well as more extensive damage to your system.

!!!! Do NOT enter the septic tank or electrical junction boxes, these areas can cause serious injury and pose a threat to your health !!!!

Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns regarding your septic system.
