Ecoflo Biofilter – Advanced Septic System Solutions by Canadian Shield Consultants Agency

At Canadian Shield Consultants Agency (CSCA), we provide professional Ecoflo Biofilter installations in Ontario, trusted by over 35,000 families across North America and Europe. The Ecoflo Biofilter is a certified, high-performance wastewater treatment system designed to reduce environmental impact while ensuring efficient and reliable septic operation.

A complete Ecoflo Biofilter septic system includes:

  • A septic tank

  • The Ecoflo Biofilter unit

  • An absorption bed

Independent studies confirm that an Ecoflo Biofilter system, when combined with native soil, effectively reduces nutrients and pathogens in groundwater and surface water, meeting stringent tertiary discharge standards. Wastewater from the septic tank, equipped with an effluent filter, is evenly distributed over the natural filtering media via a unique device without electromechanical parts, ensuring consistent and reliable treatment.


Ecoflo Biofilter – Simple, Space-Saving, and Long-Lasting

Unlike conventional septic systems that rely solely on soil absorption, the Ecoflo Biofilter uses a peat-based, high-performance filtering medium that maintains its purifying capacity over time. This results in:

  • Reduced footprint, allowing optimal use of your property

  • Long-term sustainability, as only the filter bed needs replacement rather than the entire system

  • Easy maintenance, with simple access to the fibreglass shell for pump-out and filter replacement

This makes the Ecoflo Biofilter a permanent, cost-effective solution for residential and commercial properties.


Versatile Applications for Residential, Commercial, and Institutional Projects

The Ecoflo Biofilter ST-650 is ideal for single-family homes with 1–4 bedrooms, while larger homes (5–6 bedrooms) require multiple units. For collective systems, commercial facilities such as restaurants, hotels, apartment buildings, and campgrounds, or institutional sites like schools, retirement homes, and museums, cluster installations can be designed to meet specific wastewater treatment needs.

At Canadian Shield Consultants Agency, we provide full Ecoflo Biofilter system design, installation, and maintenance services throughout Ontario, ensuring your property stays compliant, sustainable, and environmentally responsible.
