Description
The Ekolet YV indoors composting toilet is a stylish, environmentally friendly and odor-free indoor toilet designed for continuous year-round use. There is sufficient capacity for continual use by 1–7 people. The use of a hand shower is possible and its installation in the bathroom is even desirable because it makes cleaning particularly easy. The toilet is made up of a porcelain toilet seat in the washroom itself plus a rotating, four-compartment composting tank beneath the floor. Therefore, the final product is 100% composted soil, because the after-composting is done in the system. The electrically assisted air circulation through the ventilation pipe keeps the toilet completely odor-free. A large part of the liquids evaporates with the air flow that is ensured by small electric fan. The rest of the liquid can be led into a gray water system of the house, among the washing water. The external appearance of the toilet is just like that of an ordinary water toilet. No additives are needed, and no sewerage pipes or water for flushing.
New compartment rotated into position
When one compartment in the composting tank is full, a thin layer of soil or turf is sprinkled over the top, and a new compartment rotated into position. This happens at intervals of about a year. When all four compartments are full, the compartment with the oldest compost will be taken out through a hatch on the side. The four compartments allow sufficiently long, natural composting and the end product is ready to be used as a fertilizer directly to plants. The biologically cleansed liquids, can be led to a gray water system of the house, among the washing water.
Simple and reliable in construction
The Ekolet indoors composting toilet is simple and reliable in construction, and can also be used during prolonged power shortages. It contains no parts that could break or become blocked and prevent the use of the toilet. The need for floor space is small due to the vertical design. The Ekolet also effectively reduces the amount of the carcinogenic radon gas by improving the ventilation in the foundations of the house. The material is polythene plastic reinforced by steel and can be recycled.
