Comment on Composting Toilet Blog by TW

I purchased envirolet composting toilet 2 years ago and I totally agree with David.
It doesn’t work.
Inside of the composting unit, all I can find is a pile of wet poo. The fans and hearter don’t have enough power to dry the wet poo. This was a very expensive mistake I made and I recomend everyone who is thinking about buying this toilet, NOT TO. simpley because , it just doesn’t work!!!

I have an envirolet waterless remote compost toilet that works but with some problems. Our application is in an outhouse type building at our lake cottage. We use it only on weekends from May to October. It works odour free for 2 people just using it on weekends but we start to get odours after a few weekends of 4 to 6 people. I had the 12v unit but found the odour was a problem and so spent the money to convert it to 120 v and then installed the heater and fan. Those helped but didn’t solve the odour problem – very strong urine odour throughout our lake lot. We added an extra 10 feet and a whirlybird on to the vent and that also helped. Bottom line – it is odour free for 2 people using it only on weekends. We hav eto lock it when we have company to avoid a revolting odour permeating our lake lot. Any more use than 2 people and the odour is back.
We also have only been emptying it once a year in the spring. We follow all directions, installed it properly without any bends in pipe etc. By the end of the season it is almost impossible to push the rakes through the mass. That becomes a 2 person job. We empty it using the lower drawer and rotate the bars but there is a fair amount of petrified poop that just won’t drop down to the lower drawer. That means removing chunks of poop by hand throught the top. I think a rotating drum system would work better because the rakes don’t work. Toilet is claimed to be good for 8 people regular use or 10 people vacation. We have found it only works for 2 people on weekends and no more. Also emptying is a pain and doesn’t work as advertised. The drain pipe for the urine doesn’t work too well because the outlet is on the side of the unit rather than the bottom at the lowest point. Last time I checked pee only ran downhill. Next year I am going to rig up two drains at the low points and see if that helps. I have had it three years and continue to upgrade and modify to try and solve these problems. I think it would work if the co. would redesign their basic unit. I have not had a response to my email complaint to the company.

The URLs by default are set to point to an image hosting site. If you are hosting them on your own server, then you will have to change the URLs to their new location with the correct image names.

I have an account with them, which allows advertisers to purchase ad spots.

Thank you Alisha. How did you get the ads from buysell ads? automatically? or you requested the advertisers ?

The names of the images are different in the code that what the images are actually named. I uploaded all the images to my own website, changed all the URLs, and they are not showing up for this reason.

I agree Your review makes me think about 2 things:

1. You need a Mac
2. You need to install Tweetie on this Mac :)
