An essential balance to protect your installations and the environment
Across Québec, many homes and businesses rely on a septic tank to manage their wastewater. However, many owners don’t realize that maintaining a proper balance between their water treatment system and their septic tank is crucial to extend the life of their installations and avoid costly repairs. At Culligan Québec, we don’t install septic tanks, but our water filtration systems integrate seamlessly with these infrastructures. Using the right equipment and ensuring optimal compatibility helps safeguard your installation while respecting the environment.
Understanding the relationship between water treatment and septic tanks
A septic tank is an underground reservoir, usually made of concrete, polyethylene, or fiberglass. It collects household wastewater and provides simple pre-treatment by separating solids from liquids. Then, the partially treated water is directed to a complementary system where bacteria and geotextiles complete the purification process before infiltration into the soil.
The quality of the water entering this system directly affects its efficiency. Inadequate water treatment can disrupt the necessary bacteria, reduce absorption capacity, or even cause premature clogging. That’s why balancing your water treatment system and septic tank is a priority for residents across Québec.

We strictly adhere to discharge standards from major Québec manufacturers such as Ecoflo®, Bionest®, DBO Expert®, Premier Tech Aqua®, Enviro-Septic®, and Hydro-Kinetic®.
