I was getting ready for my rough in inspection and I noticed the 4 inch cast iron pipe leading into my septic tank was loose. So I dug around the pipe and saw that it was basically sitting there, the mortar that connected it to the tank was broken, so I took off the pipe.
What do I do now?????
1. Reconnect the old cast pipe with mortar and call it good.
2. Connect the old septic with new 4inch ABS and mortar it in(Is this code???).
3. Connect the old septic with new 4inch ABS and mortar it in and drill a 4 1/2 hole into my foundation to have the system leading to my basement underground.
I am leaning towards 3 but am skeptical into drilling the hole in a hundered year old foundation.
Thanks in advance
