We have customers who have done that - just use flexible vent hose. Separett now make a 2m length of white flexible hose...

You could do, although anything absorbent would be mainly beneficial as a soak in case any urine got in. The actual container of poo isn't in there long enough for it to become an issue. The exception might be if you have very loose stools.

We hadn't fully pushed the bend into place so it stood slightly proud. When doing a 'proper' installation, use some silicone lubricant and the bend will go fully into place, clearing the floor.

Hi Ron. You should direct the question to the manufacturer - we're just a distributor! I guess the R&D costs, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and so on, all have to be factored in. If you look at competitive products (Air Head, Natures Head etc) they are either similar or more expensive.

We're not familiar with this size - we are based in the UK and use litres. So, maybe it will, but we're not sure.

Not really - most will go down into the solids container, which is lined with a biodegradable/compostable liner. Anything that misses, can be cleaned up with an anti bacterial spray and wipes just as you would with a water flushing toilet. It's not difficult to do!

Hello. We only sell within Great Britain. For all other countries, please contact the manufacturer at kazuba.pro/en/contact/

It's not and doesn't pretend to be a composting toilet, (it is part of a composting system) but it can be installed in places you cannot have a full-composting toilet (ie where space is a premium). By separating, and with the vent system, you don't get smells (as users will testify - it's based on the Separett Villa which has been in production over 20 years) and you can either wipe and deposit used paper as you sit, or put pressure on the seat to open, or bin used loo paper elsewhere. Full composting toilets are great and have a place, but this is an alternative that works for many people.

Only for a short time (an hour or so) when it is freshly applied. After that, the odour will disappear.

The poo is collected in the basket under the toilet. When this is full, it's moved to the rear, where it sits in the airflow for a further period of time. The spare empty basket is moved to replace this one.

You can use it fine with diarrhoea.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets thanks, was asking for a friend XD

We're doubtful that stepping down from 50mm to 15mm would work. In order to get the same air extraction rate, the airspeed would have to increase, which *might* present a noise issue.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets thanks

We have clients here in the UK where we suggested fitting a quieter/slower fan which has performed well at a lower noise level.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets which fan got a link

Thanks for your comment! There are two baskets in the Kazuba - when the active one is full, it's slid to the rear and sits in the airflow to completely dry. When it needs to be emptied, there's an access hatch on the back and the dry contents can be emptied in minutes and placed on a compost pile to finish off.

Push down

Pet sawdust? You mean like Kitty Litter?

Probably.

@@hwajuhwarang @Jonboy probably means the type of sawdust used for Mouse and Hamster cages.

Simple 'bucket' toilets can work but not everybody wants that basic approach or has the time and space to manage a system like that. The Separett Tiny provides a waterless toilet option for people who prefer a good design and simple to manage system (urine separation) that would look good in houses, boats, camper vans etc.

The seat and the view screen/flap don't play a big part in odour reduction, in fact, the gaps around the seat will help air get in for subsequent extraction. Whether your other fan will overpower the toilet depends on how powerful it is, although it's probably unlikely.

It is a collector with biodegradable bags, after emptying the entire contents can be tossed into an existing compost pile.

@@Adiscretefirm Is a hole in the bush work as a compost pile?

How does odor management work with a bucket system?

@@Lookup33 the main odor comes from urine. We put our pee in a gallon jug and seal. As far as odor from the poo, the poo bag is tied off.. No odor escapes. put a new bag in and continue as before.

Zero urine smell even when it is full just before the red light comes on. This is a great CT so far in our opinion.

That depends on where your piping to And if you follow their guidelines That said keep in mind your if travelling and is your vehicle level

I have had one for about a year now, and it does smell, depending on how long you let it sit. I keep a vinegar/water spray bottle to spray it down after using it, and that helps clean it and keep the smell down, but after a while, if you don't dump it often, it will definitely have a strong smell to it. (Also has a lot to do with temperature. It's hotter out=more smell)

True. No smell at all and no leakage when you throw it in your garden. In the back bucket I put a fermé drops of lemon or grapefruit essential oil and it's all I can smell when I use them. You never see anything disgusting Esther! The work of conception is worth the price. I don't regret my purchase. I kept the classical toilets for my guests and only use the tiny separett myself. Very good product 👍👍👍

Then by all means, go get you a shit smelling cassette! This is obviously not for you.

@@Umi-imU-We-Are-One Settle ... the price is prohibitive so it is understandable there would be criticisms of it. I like it, but would find it difficult to justify. Plenty of dirty and smelly jobs in the world :- )

As you'd expect from a major manufacturer like Separett, the product has undergone extensive repetitive use and destruction testing and they are confident enough to offer a 5-year warranty. There are many other toilets out there and people can choose according to their requirements. Our customer feedback so far is excellent in terms of build quality and sturdiness. People seem to appreciate the unique features such as the automatic concealing flap, the urine level indicator and simple, clear method of emptying. Making your own is a great way to start understanding waterless toilets, but many people want something that is stylish, convenient and off-the-shelf. That's the Separett Tiny. Best wishes with your project.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets Thanks for the reply. I'll keep that in mind. The Separett is still a possible contender if/when I shop for a composting toilet. Excellent video btw. Appreciate the detailed look. Cheers.

@@Mr2Reviews You're most welcome 😄

If you're in the UK (which is where we are based), you can visit our website at www.waterlesstoilets.co.uk/toilets/separett-tiny-with-urine-container/ - dimensions are in the text and product images. Alternatively, try to manufacturers site at www.separett.com

There are two equally important aspects. Firstly the separation (at source) of the liquids from solids, then secondly the efficient ventilation system which gently extracts remaining odours in the airflow. Once outside, any odours dissipate quickly into the atmosphere.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets thanks, I'm wondering about smells once the bag is filling and the hatch is opened to dump again? maybe human feces doesn't smell all that bad after all

Nothing, shit always stinks.There are people who think theirs doesn't.

The features on the Tiny dictate a certain amount of design and parts in order to achieve the results that many people want (automatic concealing screen, urine bottle not in place alert, urine bottle nearly full alert, etc). The manufacturer understands that not everyone wants or needs those features and can make do with a simpler toilet, which is entirely your choice, but some people DO want those features. Also worth noting that Separett have done extensive testing on the parts and mechanisms to ensure that they'll continue to provide reliable service for many years to come. Ultimately, it's your choice and if you prefer a simpler solution (albeit without the 'features') then that's your choice to make.

Well spotted! You can leave the lid on, which would be useful in situations where you needed to turn the power off (ie no fan) for a while, but didn't want to empty the solids container. Obviously, you'd need to remove the lid before next use!

​@@woowoowaterlesstoilets Thanks for the additional information about the fan!

This is a compost toilet as opposed to a composting toilet, so composting doesn't take place inside the toilet. This means it's much simpler and more reliable and the focus of the toilet is to separate the liquids from solids and ensure all odours are taken away. The solids container is emptied as and when needed, and the contents tipped into a compost bin where other carbon-based material can be added for composting.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets thanks for that

@@malcolmrowe5031 I still recommend using a coconut fiber like we do. It helps to dry the solids, thus limiting the potential odor even more.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets So your just adding new raw layers of poo each time you go till it gets full? Seems like it would be gross not to cover with composting material. Also the Natures Head, for one person, can go up to FOUR months before needing to empty. Why do you like this one over something like a NH true composting toilet? I don't see any advantage, what would it be over just making a $20 composting toilet with a 5 gallon bucket in a wood box with a vent fan?

Like the SOG loo's, it only works when the aperatures for solids is open causing a vacume, so pulling air from the bathroom into the loo and out through the vent. Don't know power usage, but my sog power usage is so minimal it makes no impact upn my leisure batteries.

It's designed to have the fan running 24/7. The fan will ensure complete odour removal and also assist in drying out the solids. The fan draws 1.5 watts at 12v DC.

There's no odour within or around the toilet because the ventilation system will be taking care of that. We suggest regular (every 1-2 days) emptying as fresh urine from a fully hydrated person isn't too odourous. As you empty the urine container, there may be some apparent smell, but this quickly goes.

There is Zero Urine Odor! That is why the blue tablet is important to have over the liquid tank.

Until it's close to full.

It depends on the amount of use, but typically you will get one to two weeks use from the solids container before it needs emptying. Obviously, the more people using it, the faster it will fill, and the amount of toilet paper you use will also have a bearing on the capacity. Because you are not mixing urine/faeces the odour potential is greatly reduced, and the ventilation system removes any remaining odours completely.

The Cabin Depot sells them (in Canada at least)

Check on the manufacturers website for distributors in your region - www.separett.com

Yes, it has a similar (but slightly smaller) fan to the Villa and works in the same way. There's no need to add coir or any other material unless you are finding the solids container is getting liquids in. Separett make an 'Absorb' pad which can help absorb any excess liquid - the problem with adding coir is that you are reducing the overall capacity, so unless you have to, don't. The fan does two main jobs, first is removing any odours and second is helping to regulate the moisture content.

@@woowoowaterlesstoilets thank you!

Great! Pros and Cons?

@@survivaltrotter-com It has been installed for two weeks now and so far, it is a great waterless toilet option. The pros are that it is completely orderless, although we do use coconut fibre in the compost bag that lines the solids tank, the seat is very comfy and it was very easy to install. We chose to run the vent pipe through the ceiling of our fifth wheel as our bathroom is on the same side of our RV as our awning, so we did not want to take a chance that any order would be detected while we are outside. The fan sound is barely detectable. We have had heavy rains lately and no water has gotten in through the piping with the rain cap. The biggest con, which is really just a design flaw, is the plastic claw that holds the blue enzyme tablet that the urine drains through should have a clamshell-type of cage over the top of it that can snap over the tablet to keep it in place, because every time that you go to empty the liquid container and lift the seat, the blue tablet goes flying unless you take it out before lifting the liquid container out to dump it. This is very unhygienic to have to do. It is gross, to be honest. People have pee’d over that blue tablet and so you have to use gloves to lift it out and then you have to set it somewhere (a piece of tissue) while you empty the liquid container and then put it back in its plastic claw. They could have designed something that snaps over the top holding the tablet in place while still allowing liquids to flow over it. It seems to me that a woman was not a part of designing this toilet. I’ll be back with a six-month review after we see how it holds up.

@@Umi-imU-We-Are-One Thank you very much for this look at your experience! Great design idea! Greetings from TheNetherlands and have a great weekend with a lot of #EWTPWGYE Theo

@@Umi-imU-We-Are-One so no smells of poop? that's amazing ... so when you go #2 and the hatch opens, no smells come out?

@@nickclifford8531 No smells at all! The fan draws them up the pipe and out through the roof. Again, we do use coconut fibre in the solids tank that the compost bags line. We have never used just the bags alone, so I can not attest to whether or not the coconut makes a difference. When you pee the solids shield does open but we have not experienced any order. Also, Even though the blue pee tabs are a pain because they have to be removed each time you empty the urine container, I do highly recommend them as they keep all urine smells away as well. So far we are very pleased with this composting toilet. We especially Love the red light that always comes on to let you know that the liquid needs to be removed and dumped! No more nasty overflow or splashing of pee everywhere.
