When shopping for a home in rural Wisconsin, one of the most overlooked items is the septic system. Understanding the type of septic system a property has can save you time, money, and surprises down the road.

โ
Conventional Septic System
The most common type. Typically consists of a septic tank and drain field. Generally less expensive to maintain and repair.
โ
Mound System
Often used when soil conditions aren't ideal for a traditional drain field. These systems work great but can be more expensive to replace or repair.
โ
Holding Tank
Stores wastewater until it is pumped out. Buyers should understand the ongoing pumping costs before purchasing a property with a holding tank.
๐ก Before purchasing a home with a private septic system, always consider a septic inspection. A little due diligence today can help prevent costly surprises tomorrow!
Have questions about septic systems, wells, waterfront homes, or rural properties? I'd be happy to help!
