Keystone Inspection Service can perform a Dye test on your septic system. This Dye Test is done by flushing a tracer dye into toilet along with a pre-determined amount of water and walking the grounds in the area of the septic field looking for signs of dye on the ground surface. We request that the lid(s) are exposed for the test(not required)and when possible we will probe in the area of the drain field. |
SEPTIC EVALUATION
The inspection of the septic system by Keystone Inspection Service is a comprehensive, functional test of the system performed above and beyond PSMA (Pennsylvania Septage Management Association) standards. We request that the lid to the tank be exposed in order to take measurements, check the baffles and interior condition of the tank, and run a minimum of 100 gallons of water into the system. Pumps are run and alarms are tested for proper operation. The drain field is probed to determine that it is functioning properly.

A positive test tells you to proceed with caution.
