Routine Septic Pumping & Mound System Maintenance in Delano, MN (Wright County 55328)

2026-08-04 · Delano, Wright County, MN · Routine Septic Pumping

Problem

This property has a larger residential septic system consisting of two 1,000-gallon septic tanks, a 1,000-gallon pump tank, and a mound drainfield. Mound systems rely on properly functioning septic and pump tanks to prevent solids from reaching the drainfield. The homeowner scheduled routine maintenance to remove accumulated sludge and solids, helping protect the pump components and extend the life of the mound system. The concrete manholes were already brought to grade, allowing for efficient access and service.

Solution

Minnesota Sewer Pros pumped and cleaned both 1,000-gallon septic tanks along with the 1,000-gallon pump tank, removing waste buildup and helping maintain proper system performance. Because the concrete manholes were accessible at grade, the service was completed efficiently without additional digging. Routine maintenance on mound systems is one of the best ways to protect the drainfield, reduce unnecessary wear on pumps and floats, and help avoid expensive septic repairs in the future.
