Maintenance / Cleaning
For regular usage, the BASIC only has to be
emptied about once every 2-3 weeks. The
waste box and bags are easily accessible,
which makes the waste removal process very
easy. The removable bowl can easily be
removed for cleaning. The liquid waste can
be collected in a container for reuse as a
garden fertilizer, or guided into a drain pit or
an existing sewage system.

The cost of running this unit is considerably
low. There is no fuel cost associated with the
BASIC. The only operating cost is the
electricity usage which is low, and the cost
for replacing the waste boxes and waste
bags. If a 12V DC battery is being used, solar
panels can be installed to back up and
recharge the battery.

The vent system can be installed vertically
(straight up), or horizontally (out through
a wall). A fan is located inside the vent and
runs continously. The fan ensures that the
air inside the toilet gets to the outside air.
