Tips for Lake Home Owners and Buyers. Always get a compliance certificate. Look for signs of failure like backups, odors, or lush grass over the drainfield. Regular Maintenance: Pump tanks every 2-3 years; avoid flushing non-biodegradables (wipes, chemicals). Use water efficiently to prevent overload. Proper systems prevent nutrient pollution that causes algae blooms in Cass County's lakes like Leech or Winnibigoshish. Low-interest loans available for upgrades via Cass County programs, check for eligibility if your system is non-conforming. Only use MPCA licensed pros for work. DIY installation allowed for non-pressurized systems, but design and inspection must be by licensed experts.
