Ok so we recently started building a new home here in Minnesota. And we are putting in a septic with drain field. But the problem is that we got so much freaking rain this year it just won't dry out enough for them to start digging in the drain field. They got the septic tanks in, and I can say fairly confidently that it has a 1500gallon tank(believe it's baffled in the center). And a second tank 1000 or 1500gallon as a second tank(it's large as my wife runs an in home day care and that's alot of toilet flushes in a day).
But my question is we are running out of time to get a drain field in as winter is coming and we will have to wait till it dries out... And they informed us that we will has we will have to pump it until they get it in(now I think we shouldn't have to pay but that's a different problem) So I know it depends on usage but how often will we have to pump the tanks with out a drain field for the water in the tanks to drain out?
