Why is flushing the waste such a good idea?
Because we now know that dog feces are a major source of Nonpoint Source Pollution. NPS pollution is caused when rainfall or snowmelt moves over the ground picking up pollutants such as chemicals, fertilizers and pet waste and finally depositing them into lakes, rivers, wetlands, coastal and ground waters. Once in these waters, these pollutants have harmful effects on drinking water supplies, recreation, fisheries and wildlife. The EPA and CDC say flushing dog waste is the best method of disposal. The PowerLoo system efficiently flushes waste into your existing septic or sewer system where it is treated and made safe.
