Great video but you said you would go over everything. How do you empty it. Do you add anything after you poo like kitty litter. How do you clean it . What do you do with the waste. Thanks
Very informative indeed , human body tends to produce a lot of waste stuff I think when the fully functional robots take over then us poor humans will be shamed by our bodily functions and I dread to think what the robots 🤖 will think of us .
I never vomit in a regular toilet anyway. It always seemed gross to me to put my head near a toilet lol if i’m ever nauseated I use a compostable bag and put in to a small desk trash can that I have just for that purpose.
Hahah, I have never heard the term "man friendly" but I like it!😂 To answer your question, yes, IF the man in question is willing to sit down to pee. Male users voted, and it's simply the best way.😄✅
Informative video but for the sake of constructive honest criticism- I would work on being more concise. It took a full 4 minutes to get to cleaning the loo!
Nope! I pulled this from their website: "The toilet can be operated with 110-240 V AC or with 12 V DC solar cell / battery power. The fan has very low energy consumption of 0.06 kWh / 24h"
Tips if anyone wants to know how to make it NEVER smell Get some poopourri but the diaper pail version (it has the perfect nozzle) and spray number twos before covering with sawdust or whatever you put in your compost No smell EVER ❤❤❤
Well, for composting purposes, you'd want to make sure they were compostable. Moisture wise, I would limit the number of wipes you throw in. The occasional wipe probably won't cause an issue, but this toilet works because a fan is constantly running to dehydrate the solid waste. So if you threw a bunch of moist wipes, the fan might not be able to keep up as efficiently.
Haha, yes, you bring up an excellent point! Men generally make an exception and sit down with this type of toilet, it just works far better that way. (Or so I've heard. :P) Thanks for watching!
Do you know why you combine a pretty bad microphone for talking to your audience with the unnecessary loud intro/outro music? Me and the majority of people watching don't know either...
Hello! The toilet is connected to a vent in the wall, but no, I didn't otherwise mount it. There is a little rubber strip that came with the toilet, but I lost it and never replaced it. I believe it was intended to provide stability. The toilet slid around a tiny bit without it, but it didn't bother me enough to fix it. And yes, I did put toilet paper in the toilet. Although, if I was trying to get it to not fill up so fast, I would sometimes put (ahem *lightly used*) TP in the trash instead of the toilet. Thanks for watching!
This is an adventure . Old lady in son’s Tiny house. Cleaning composting toilet 😂 Your video is so informative !! And…. You are so cute about a very non cute adventure!!! The freezer😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Super practical tips and tricks. I appreciate your content. Also love the earth friendly yet useful cleaning products you use. Great idea to put some drops of the theives oil in with your castile soap. Inspires me to want to put this toilet into a Tiny Air BNB some time. 10/10!
Hey thanks from fairbanks. I just bought a tiny house. Well it's small not tiny. But it has a compost toilet without a separator. I definitely need to upgrade it. Thanks for the video
Love the honest and transparent videos on tiny house living! So tired of the super well edited and unrealistic tiny house videos. Frozen tiny house pipes are real. Awkward tiny house stairs are real. New subscriber here!
Composting bags just suck. I have a roll that was only 1yr old and had to throw out. I couldn't pick them up out of my 5gal composting toilet with them breaking.
Even though your videos are straightforward, reading your responses in the comments section is an added bonus. There's a wealth of information there. Thanks for being so forthcoming. ❤🎉
Great question! If liquid or moisture of any kind gets in the solids bucket (black hole), the worst-case-scenario is that the fan won't be able to keep up, and it will start to smell so you'll have to change the bag sooner. If someone, like, actually peed in it or something, I'd just recommend the change the bag asap. Thanks for watching, and commenting!🙌
Girl, this is a great video.The best part is your words on Canes. I personally stopped eating at Canes when the prices went up so high. Im still living back in 2003 when I could get a 3 finger meal for $4.99 (with tax). :) Thank you for your honesty. We have no idea how much trash we create. It's insane.
I suggest people Google 'urine in grey water'. In general, it's not. If you have a real composting system with a big tank with mechanical stirring and you add wood chips - that stuff becomes great humus. Putting pee in your grey water and poo in the trash is just a few steps above peeing on trees and pooing in the bushes. You might as well just have a luggable loo and stop kidding yourself.
Great question! It depends on where you live. I've contacted various waste management experts, and I've been told different things. If you have professional composting services, you can sometimes put it in that bin. Other municipalities have told me to just put it in the trash. That always feels weird to me, but I guess we put wet baby waste in plastic and throw it away, so maybe dry adult waste in biodegradable film is better? You'll want to ask your local facility. Good luck and thanks for watching!
The Thinktank toilet is a similar design, but it is airtight and uses ventilation air from outside the building. Otherwise you are using expensively heated or cooled air from inside the building. Also, men can stand with the Thinktank and really need to sit with the Separett.
