Septic Compass is a free service that connects homeowners with licensed local septic companies. We are not a contractor and do not perform septic work.
A mound system is a raised, engineered drain field built above ground where the natural soil or water table won't allow a buried field. Effluent is pumped up into the sand mound, which filters it before it reaches the soil. Mounds cost more to build and require careful upkeep.
