Solid waste
With normal use, a family of four produces around 7 litres of solid waste per week. The
emptying frequency depends on usage. For example, after 2-3 weeks use by 4 people it
will be time to switch composting chambers.
Simply remove the top, tie up the bag, remove and replace it with a new bag.
If you would like to compost the waste and use as a fertiliser, we recommend emptying
the waste into a separate external chamber, adding a little bulking agent, and setting
it aside in a shady place to complete composting (this make take around 6 months,
depending on conditions).

General advice
• If insects get into the toilet, refer to our information on dealing with insects that can be found in the troubleshooting section
of our website (ecoo.com.au/resources/troubleshooting).
• To clean the toilet, use only enzymes. Never use abrasive chemical cleaning agents.
• If the toilet is installed as option B and you leave the house for more than 2 days, switch off the fan and put the cover in the
toilet opening. If there is a good natural draft no odour will occur.
• Empty the solid waste regularly, the bags start to decompose after 2-3 week.
• If you do experience a bad odour in the room, check the pipe connections are properly sealed and if there is an adequate
air supply.
