Onsite wastewater treatment and dispersal in the industry's smallest footprint — meeting the highest treatment standard required by code, with no disinfection accessories. Serving Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Arizona.
Wastewater disperses through coils on contour over a shallow sand bed — meeting the highest treatment standard in code, then returning clean water to the ground. The least soil, the smallest footprint, no disinfection.
Lowridge provides the onsite wastewater industry with the products that protect and conserve our water resources — complete system packages that make installation quick and simple, with easy-to-follow instructions.
Our primary product has daily design flows ranging from 240 gpd to 100,000 gpd, the industry's smallest footprint, requires the least amount of soil, and is capable of meeting the highest recognized treatment standard required by code — without any disinfection accessories.
Coil-based treatment and dispersal families sized to the governing state loading-rate code. OSCAR-III remains a single-family residential path only, using the same coil-on-contour footprint approach with a lower loading rate per coil.
View manuals ↗Single-family residential design flow can exceed 480 gpd and may go up to 1,500 gpd when supported by the residential design path. Multifamily is commercial and should use XO2-15/XO2-35 kit tables, headworks, piping and multi-zone drawings from the approved XO2 design manuals.
View source library ↗Legacy low-flow questions are handled only as retrofit-to-XO2 guidance. Current product selection and sizing should use OSCAR-XO2 and the approved state manuals.

Every OSCAR-XO2 kit includes a pre-assembled headworks box — flow meter, disc filter, pressure gauges, and solenoid zone valves, all plumbed and tested before it leaves Lowridge. No field assembly and no guesswork.
