Lifewater Engineering Co.

Company Overview

We focus on listening your needs and selecting the most suitable equipment for your project. Through cold region engineering, we develop and provide your system for optimal success.

Given that many northern locations are not linked by roads, we often design treatment systems for helicopter transport.

As we design everything ourselves, your project advances quickly.

If you are not already working with an engineering firm, we can prepare a plan review submittal and discharge permit application for government approval.

With Lifewater, you get the benefit of advanced treatment technologies packaged for your project's needs and delivered on your schedule.

If you already have your treatment equipment selected, we can customize it to work in a cold or hot climate at any location on earth.

In 1998, a couple in Fairbanks asked Lifewater to design a sewage treatment system for their home, built on permafrost.

The onsite residential sewage treatment system could not have any buried tanks or a leach field because they would add heat to the ground, causing the permafrost to thaw.

The system needed to function at -60°F, be easy to install and maintain, affordable, and state-approved.

This challenge sparked the creativity of Lifewater's founder, Bob Tsigonis.

Being a man of faith, Bob clarifies that after a time of prayer, an elegantly simple design emerged, culminating in a system that met all the homeowners' requirements and brought them value and peace of mind.
