Composting toilet manual

      The odour from the ‘Out-of-service’ chamber is unpleasant:
      If the ‘Out-of-service’ chamber is not connected to the vent pipe it may smell immediately after
      it has been taken ‘Out-of-service’. Odours can be greatly reduced or eliminated by covering the
      top of the pile with straw or dry grass clippings. You may wish to do this before disconnecting
      the chamber.



      The odour from the ‘In-service’ chamber is unpleasant:
      If this is not caused by a failed fan, blockage in the vent pipe, liquid drain hose or Fitting. Please
      see the “‘In-service’ chamber is filling too quickly” section for how to resolve this problem.

      The power has failed resulting in toilet room odours:
      Cover the pedestal with cling film until the power is restored. If you are connected to mains pow-
      er consider installing an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) Available at Ecoflo Wastewater
      Management. The UPS will cut in with power from a 7ah battery when there is a loss of mains
      power.

      Helpful Hints from our customers :
      •    Paint the Vent Stack black to produce an upward air flow.
      •    Add a wind assisted turbo vent to the Vent Stack.



      Mixer not turning

      Do not force the mixer to turn if it is hard. Firstly add water to the compost pile (say 2-4L) and
      leave for an hour. Then attempt to rotate the mixer back and forth until it frees up.
      In the event you have forced the rotation of the mixer, you may bend the blade, which has been
      designed to do this to avoid breaking the gears.
      If the blades are bent, they can simply be straightened when the chamber is changed over.
