Good Morning, All.
I discovered last evening that all of our basement appliances are draining into a sump pit. This includes our washing machine, condensate pump, and dehumidifier. The sump pump then drains into the grass in our backyard. We live in a 5-year-old home in a condominium association within a small borough, population 5,000. I assume that all of our condos were build the same way.
Is this normal or standard? I was just surprised and it didn't seem quite right to be dumping all of our laundry detergent into our grass.
... any thoughts? Thanks!
