Message: <blockquote data-quote="3Roosters" data-source="post: 169190" data-attributes="member: 1351">Looking for any input/answers/things to check.2 yrs ago next month, we had a licensed installer/inspector install a 1500 gallon capacity septic holding tank on our lake property. We currently have a camper there but decided to go with 1500 gal. in case we ever decide to build a cabin or whatever somewhere down the line...just the wife and me. There is clay soil so drain field wasn't an option, we will need to go with a mound system. Until we do a mound..if we ever do..we plan to just get tank pumped each fall.Fall of 2015 when we had it pumped..well paid for it..billing statement said it was about 1/2 full. Spring and summer and part of the fall of 2016 we used camper on weekends. We had septic pumped last Nov. 1st..well paid a bill...and he said it was about 1/2 full again. We go to lake prop a couple weekends ago to open up slide outs , etc, get ready for another summer of weekend use. This time when we showed up the visual alarm had popped out signaling the tanks were at least 75% full!! WTH..it was emptied the previous Nov.! I contacted installer and he said they had a lot of rain recently and snow melt...which is weird as there is a burning ban! He said his worker said there was some settling around tanks.okkkkkk...it had settled previous year as well.. Not sure I am buying it filling up 1200 gals from Nov til April with no use. What say you guys? Pics are right after it was installed and also after they covered it up....I don't have a current pic as ground around tanks did settle a few inches..still not sure how h20 would get in.. the white pvc pipe in front is where RV is attached...that we keep hooked up..and you can see the visual alarm pvc pipe in background where it is down...when we arrived a couple weeks ago that visual alarm pipe was like 3 ft up in the air.Thoughts??][ATTACH]13173[/ATTACH][ATTACH]13174[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
