How It Works

How it works

Cleaner water, naturally.

Every Waterloo Biofilter system follows the same proven treatment process. Select a system to explore how wastewater moves from your home through treatment and into the leaching bed.

Diagram of a Waterloo Biofilter Basket System, showing flow from the home to anaerobic digester, treatment unit and leaching bed.

Wastewater enters

Water from the home flows to the anaerobic digester tank.

Solids settle

The digester separates and begins breaking down solids.

Water is treated

A pump doses wastewater through the Biofilter Basket Treatment Unit.

Water disperses

High-quality treated effluent is distributed to the leaching bed.

Follow the blue flow line: the moving droplets show the path wastewater takes through the system.
