What is Septic Dye Testing?
Septic dye testing is a simple yet effective technique used to detect potential leaks or malfunctions in your septic system. The process involves introducing a fluorescent dye into the system and monitoring its flow to identify any issues.
How It Works
Dye Introduction
A non-toxic, brightly colored dye is added to your septic system through a toilet or drain.
Water Flushing
Water is run through the system to flush the dye.
Observation Period
The area around your septic tank and drain field is observed for any signs of the dye appearing on the surface.
Results & Report
If dye is visible above ground, it indicates a leak or failure in the system.
