About SepticJohn

SepticJohn - A Whole Household Wastewater Incinerator System

SepticJohn incinerators offer a groundbreaking approach to wastewater management. Unlike traditional septic systems that rely on large leach fields, mound systems, or anaerobic treatment, SepticJohn systems process all wastewater into a small amount of sterile ash. This makes them ideal for:
  • Challenging Installations: Where traditional septic systems fail due to soil conditions (poor percolation) or space limitations.
  • New Developments: Offering a sustainable and efficient solution for both residential and commercial projects.
Key Benefits:
  • Compact Design: Requires minimal space, making it perfect for small lots or areas with limited land availability.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Eliminates the need for leach fields, preventing groundwater contamination and reducing environmental impact.
  • Efficient Operation: All wastewater is effectively evaporated, and solid waste is completely incinerated into easily disposable ash.
  • Reliable and Durable: Provides a long-lasting and maintenance-free solution for your wastewater needs.

Choose SepticJohn for a clean, efficient, and environmentally responsible way to manage your household wastewater.

How Does it Work?

Current Septic Tank Problems

Septic tank failures are a significant issue in areas that rely on on-site wastewater treatment. The exact number of septic tank failures per year varies depending on the region and the condition of the systems. In the U.S., for example, it’s estimated that around 10% to 20% of the 21 million septic systems experience some form of failure annually. This means that anywhere from 2 to 4 million systems might fail each year due to improper maintenance, old age, or poor design.

Failures can result in contamination of groundwater, surface water, and even indoor environments, which makes it a public health and environmental concern. Regular maintenance and inspections are critical to preventing system failures.

SepticJohn FAQs

How does a wastewater incinerator system work?

How does is work?
The SepticJohn systems process all black and greywater into a small amount of sterile ash. They operate with standard plumbing fixtures, but don't require a drain field or leach line.
How does the cost of installing a SepticJohn system compare to a traditional septic systems?

The cost of a complete system depends on model, configuration, and location of the installation. In general, in areas where a standard septic is difficult or expensive to install, Ecojohn can provide a more cost effective solution.

Does it smell bad during operation?
During operation, there could be a slight burning smell outside the vent (no sewage smell), but if installation is done properly, there should be no smell inside the shed. As an option for really sensitive areas, Ecojohn offers a deodorizer dosing system that can be added to the installation.
What energy sources do these system require?
The SepticJohn systems require either propane, natural gas, or diesel/kerosene to operate. In addition, they also require some electricity.
What’s the best septic alternative system in 2025?
Ecojohn's turnkey wastewater incinerator systems are designed to operate in the most harsch and difficult lots where standard systems fail, hence making them an ideal solution in many remote applications.
Can you use toilet paper and standard flushing toilets?
Absolutely, these systems can be installed with any standard fixtures in a household. Having said that, Ecojohn recommends installing low flush toilets and fixtures to be more water efficient.
Is it noisy when going through a cycle?
The SepticJohn models are very quiet during operation (below 60 decibels).
