A professionally designed, constructed, and maintained septic system can provide long-term, effective treatment of your household water. Routine maintenance will help to keep your system healthy while protecting the water supply and the environment for years to come.

Septic System Basics

Over 25 percent of Minnesota households use on-site sewage treatment systems, commonly referred to as septic systems, to treat their wastewater. Proper treatment of sewage recycles water back into the natural environments with reduced health risks to humans and animals and prevents surface and groundwater contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a septic system be cleaned?

We recommend septic tanks be pumped every two to three years. This interval is designed to maximize the life of your drainage system. Keep in mind, it is much cheaper to pay for routine maintenance than for a new drainage system, not to mention the damage that will be done to your yard if you must have it replaced.

Go down to your basement and find where the main drain exits through the foundation (it will generally be a four-inch cast-iron or PVC pipe). Go outside and measure 11’ out from the foundation of your home in the spot the pipe goes through the wall. Generally, your inlet cover will be located here about 6″ to 2′ underground.

If you cannot find your tank using the technique mentioned above, our technicians can try to locate it for you with probes & shovels they carry on the trucks, for a nominal fee.

The crusting is organic material that has congealed into a solid mass. This condition may indicate a bacterial deficiency. Your tank needs pumping.

When they are functioning normally septic systems have no smell. If you have any bathrooms, sinks, or drains that you do not generally use, try running water through all of them to fill up empty P-traps. If that does not solve the problem, check your vent stack (the little pipe going through your roof) to see if there is a clog.
It should be close to the top, but not coming out the lid. You should be able to see the complete inlet or outlet pipe at, or above the liquid level, but it should be near the top. If the level is over the inlet or outlet pipes, then you have a drainage problem and you should call us.
