Clean out pipe location.
Have Hibiscus model home, can not locate the sewer clean out cap. Full baths each side of home, if facing front what side and approx. location for search ? Built 2001 Polo Ridge .

Walk around the neighborhood to see if other houses have a visible cleanout. If so, yours will be in approximately the same location. Also, many cleanups are located within about 10 feet from the house and close to the corner of the garage.

You may be able to call 811 (call before you dig) to see if they can trace the drain lines. I have seen many times where the clean out is buried by landscaping. Once you find it, have your plumber raise it so it is easy to find. I know ours is about 2 feet away from the house on the garage side, as this drain line is shared with the neighbor on that side. Which reminds me look at your neighbors on each side and see if you can see their clean out, the one closest to your house should be the shared connection.

I know ours are shared to a tap line that goes to the street as I can see access caps for each house and the separate cleanout ports. Now this is in the village of Pinellas (vintage 2013) and no idea if this is normal for all locations in the villages.

Now, not to hijack this thread but, I have a slightly different question. Do the sewer clean out pipes contain a back flow prevention valve? The reason I ask is that earlier this year a work crew was on my street and I was informed they were doing "sewer clean outs". This apparently involved either air or water injected under pressure which cause my toilets to spray water out of the bowls. This happened to a number of neighbors I spoke with. It would seem that if there were back flow prevention valves this wouldn't happen. Further, no back flow valve could mean sewage could back up into the home. Should I be concerned? |
