Local Plumbing Guide in Sutter County
Wells and Septic in Rural Sutter County
- A new or repaired septic system needs a county permit and often a soil test.
- Well drilling and destruction go through the county's well program.
- No water on a well: check the breaker and pressure gauge, then call.
- Flooded wells and septic tanks need inspection before use.
Living Between Two Rivers
Much of Sutter County is low ground between the Feather River and the Sutter Bypass, protected by levees. When high water comes, plumbing damage follows: flooded water heaters, wells and septic systems, and sewers that back up. Keep the main shutoff and the water heater's controls easy to reach, and have flooded equipment checked before you use it.
