How do HOOT systems work?

All HOOT systems use multiple chambers for the purpose of water purification. The first chamber holds incoming wastewater. The middle chambers are arranged differently in different models, but share common features. In one, oxygen is pumped into the water in order to promote bacterial growth that consumes organic waste material. Another chamber receives fluid from the aeration chamber and allows the cleaner water to rise. The water is then chlorinated and passed to a final section, from which it can be drained out.

Product Features

There are four different pre-designed models. The oldest and most basic is the Louisiana HOOT System. The LA HOOT system is similar, with slightly different proportions. It is billed as higher efficiency and comes with a two-year warranty.

The HOOT system has a more complicated design for its middle chambers, and is supported by a computer which continually evaluates the system's functioning. The company guarantees this system for three years. HOOT BNR has a similar design, but uses recirculation in order to eliminate nitrogen more effectively. Water discharged from the HOOT BNR meets federal standards for drinkability.

HOOT Systems, LLC, also creates larger systems for commercial clients on contract. These systems are intended for buildings generating more than 2000 gallons of waste per day.
