Problem, seems water running into HW tank then directly to septic

I'm not sure if that is the case, but for the last two weeks there's been a bit of water at bottom of hill where my septic drains.

Plumbing/septic installed 4 years ago. Plumber didn't respond last time I had a problem and so far this time neither.

Anyhow I'm often not home, but last night I hear the faint sound of water running. In the "plumbing room" the cold water line from the street into the HW tank is extra cold, and there's sound at HW tank top, then seems water draining into the 4" pipe leading to out the septic.

I turned the lever off for the HW tank, hoping that's ok.

Any idea what to look for? Doh!
Thanks.
