General Information
Smoke Testing Notice
This is Notification that over the coming months, we will be conducting smoke testing throughout the area. This is to detect any areas in the sewer system that may be allowing any water to enter into the system.
This will also detect any areas in homes where your sewer pipes may have issues outside or if you have missing caps on your sewer clean out.
If the smoke comes into your home, that is your alert that the traps in your water fixtures have failed. If the smoke exits the pipe on top of your house, that says your internal fixture traps are good. This smoke is non-toxic. Placards will be placed in the areas of testing. There will not be a notice delivered to each home.
If the smoke comes up from a storm drain that will show there is a tie in that will have to be eliminated as only sewage can enter the sewer piping legally. If smoke comes up from an open area, such as where a house has been demolished, that is where we have an open sewer connection and it must be eliminated.
