Should There Be Water in My Sewer Cleanout?

A sewer cleanout is an access point installed on a sewer line, allowing for maintenance and inspection. Typically, there should not be standing water in the cleanout.

Here are some reasons why there may be water in a sewer cleanout:

• Blockage in the Sewer Line: Wastewater can back up into the cleanout if the sewer line is blocked by debris or tree roots.
• Damaged Sewer Line: Cracks or leaks in the sewer line can allow groundwater to seep into the cleanout.
• Improper Drain Connections: Incorrectly connected drains, such as sump pumps or downspouts, can direct rainwater into the sewer line, filling the cleanout.

If you notice standing water in your sewer cleanout, it’s important to contact a sewage cleanup service for immediate inspection and repair.
