Composting Toilets are an excellent option for sanitary disposal of waste when no plumbing, water or electricity are available. We see composting toilets used in cottages, boat houses, garden sheds, pool houses, barns, remote offices or guest space, and coastal cottages where a leach field is not permitted. Another common locale for a composting toilet is in an older home where toilet waste needs to be removed from an overloaded septic system.
When considering a composting toilet you should be aware that they require a vent either through the roof or through a wall in which the compost gases can be exhausted out of the living space, an excess run off drain from the holding space of the toilet in which excess liquid can leave the toilet and the unit must be maintained at a minimum of approximately 60 degrees to maximize composting activity. The toilet can drop below that minimum temperature but the composting process will slow down significantly.
Composting toilets are one possible solution to any number of difficulties in dealing with sewage disposal. They require care by the user and maintenance as well as some type of leach bed and sometimes special permitting. We have been carrying the Sunmar unit for over 20 years and have first hand experience with them to help you identify whether it is the right solution for you and how best to maintain it.
