Regular maintenance will help prevent wastewater from backing up into your home or overwhelming your leach field, which would turn your yard into a soggy mess.
…property value
You can expect to pay $250-$500 every three to five years on regular maintenance or, if your system fails, $6,000-$15,000 to replace a typical residential leach field. Home and septic inspections are a part of every real estate transaction in New Hampshire. Regular maintenance will protect your investment.
…water quality
If the stuff in your tank ends up in your yard, where will it go next? It will run off into nearby surface water, and could potentially contaminate your drinking water and prevent the recreational use of our lakes and streams.
