Sewer Line Exits the Basement Wall

If your home has a basement, you want to look to see where the sewer line exits the basement wall. Your septic system will likely be right outside that location, approximately 10 or so feet away from your house.

Look for the Roof Vent

For those homes in MN without a basement, look for the roof vent on your home. This vent is typically right in line and on top of the sewer location. So, your septic system should be in line with this vent about 10 feet away from the home.

Extra Green Grass In Your Yard

Other signs that you can look for when trying to find the septic system on your property is looking at the grass on your property. Oftentimes, there may be extra green grass, wetness or even dead grass.

Check The City Or County Records

Another easy way to find your septic system is to look back at the property records for your home. Most of these records provide a diagram, including dimensions, that will give you a picture of where your septic system is on the property.
