With W -licensed pumper measuring waterpum.ped versus water;used. A
water meter will need to -be installed to.monitor daily water use, A pump. out
alarm will need to be set at'`%5%Q: of the tank: capacity at 2250 gallons.
The tank will, need to be. insulated :on the top & 2' down the sides along with
the manhole covers & risers. The supply line will be insu-seal 47° diameter.
Low water use facilities will need to be installed through out the cabin. The
water softner should be diverted to.
All neighboring wells are' located greater than. 95' awayfrom the north well.
3 cabins share the :same well.
A 2 bedroom cabin; with low water use facilitieswill .produce an average of
50 to 100 gallons a day with low water use facilities. Example 45 to 22 days
pumping needed at 2250 gallons.
The tank must be pumped-bef6r&. road restrictions come on'in 'the spring.

Homeowner Management Tasks "`4_
These operation and maintenance activities are your responsibility. Use the chart on page 6 to
track your activities.
Identify the service intervals recommended by your system designer and your local government. The
tank assessment for your system will be the shortest interval ai these three intervals. Your
pumper/maintalner will determine If yourtank needs to be pumped.

❑ Leaks. Check (listen, look) far leaks in toilets and dripping faucets. Repair leaks promptly.
Annually

Li Caps. Make sure that all caps and lids are intact and in place. Inspect for damaged caps at least
every fall. fix 6 replace damaged caps before winter to help. prevent freezing issues.
C] Water conditioning devices. See Page 5 for a list of devices. When possible, discharge clear
water sources to another location. Program the recharge frequency based on water demand
(gallons) rather than time (days). Recharging too frequently will result in increased pumping
costs.
❑ Review your water usage rate. Review the Water Use Appliance chart on Page 5. Discuss any
major changes with your pumper/maintainer.
During each visit by a pumper/maintainer
0 Ask If your pumper/maintainer is licensed in Minnesota.
Ci Make sure that your pumper/malntalner has clear access to the holding tank and completely

❑ End of year seasonal property pumping. Remind homeowner'of most frequent causes of tank
and building sewer freeze -ups. Ensure that there are no "micro -sources" of water such as a high
efficiency furnace or other dripping devices. Determine a logical winter water use plan that will
not result in need for emergency visit{s).
