Why septic systems malfunction. Most septic systems malfunction because of inappropriate design or poor maintenance. Some soil-based systems (those with a drain field) are installed at sites with inadequate or inappropriate soils, excessive slopes, or high ground water tables.
Inspect and Pump Frequently The average household septic system should be inspected at least every three years by a septic service professional. Household septic tanks are typically pumped every three to five years.
Full Inspections The water level can or show whether the water is draining properly. The inspector will then run water in the house to make sure it is properly flowing from the house to the septic tank, and to make sure the water level within the tank does not rise when they introduce more water.
During the process, the inspector will measure the size of the tank and potentially the drain field. Besides looking for signs of failure, they will also do a flow test. This test replicates the households morning rush and considers the size of the house as well as the number of rooms, fixtures, and people.

Generally, a full septic inspection, including probing the tank, examining system components, and assessing drainage fields, can take anywhere from two to four hours. However, this time frame may be extended if the septic system is particularly complex or if the property is unusually large.
A septic inspection costs $150 to $450 for routine maintenance or $300 to $650 for a real estate transaction or Title 5 inspection. Septic tank inspection costs depend on the location, tank and system size, and whether its a basic visual inspection or full inspection.
