The drain in our utility room is backing up. It is supposed to drain condensation from our A/C unit . We are on we'll and septic and are beginning to see signs of the well being low. The toilets are easily backing up and hard to plunge and we hear water spurting sounds in the shower and from the water coming into the washing machine. How do we fix the drain and does it have to do with the well?

Let's work on the drainage first. Here's a few things to check. Open up the house cleanout and flush the toilet a few times. Does the water back up in the clean out? If you can open up a inspection port on the septic tank is the water level above the inlet? Let me know if your septic system's working so we can move on. Back to you, Tom
