Septic Systems

Muskoka’s rocky and sensitive environment requires special care for the design, installation and
maintenance of septic systems. We’ve researched the best options for our commercial and residential
customers. We prefer:

Class 4 Whitby Filter Bed

This standard septic bed is the most commonly-used system and is regulated by the Ontario Building Code.

Waterloo Biofilter System

These systems reduce your footprint and the ecological impact of waste water on rivers and lakes. They are the best choices for environmentally-sensitive areas.
