Vacation package
A complete package for vacation use or 2-3 persons year around
13,800 KR plus VAT - all you need to install the system except for the ventilation pipe which varies too much from place to place. Does not include shipping.
Measurments HxWxL = 1(,2)m x 1m x 1.2m
M1000 Black PE compostingtank on a pallet with a volume of 1000 lit is easy to place on flat ground, low maintenance and suitable for 2-3 persons year-around.
If further capacity is needed, a second toilet and tank is recommended. We offer a discount on the second system.
The composting tank is equipped with:
- An inspection hatch
- Ventilation connector
- Drain net
- A starter bed (see below)
A 60 liter collection tank for the odor- and bacteria-free compost tea.
The drum can be buried in the ground and connected to the near by compost tank with a hose.
Can be equipped with a 200 mm tube reaching the surface of the ground for liquid removal with a submercible pump.
The toilet Elegant made of two ply ABS plastics with an acrylic surface which is ultra glossy white and scratch resistent.
Also equipped with high quality KANDRE equipped with a HOT-SEAT (see below).
A 280mm diameter connection chute between the toilet and the tank, normally 70 cm long but can be specified at any length up to 5 meters (for a second floor installation).
HOT-SEAT
Heated sit-ring is the star of the system, very much appreciated, especially at night and allowing for the bathroom itself
to keep a lower temperature.
2.800 KR if bought separately.
Option - SEALAND
Sealand is an ultra low flush toilet using on average around 1/2 a liter per flush. "The trap" has been replaced with a ball-valve which reduces the flush amount considerably. The Sealand is still a flush toilet. It has all the disadvantages of a flush toilet -- risk of clogging, over-flowing, leaking, freezing if you leave the house in cold weather etc. We do not recommend using this toilet as the main toilet but only as the second less used toilet in the house.
+ 1.400 Kr or 5,850 Kr bought separately incl. Hot-Seat.
Optional use of the toilet
The toilet top and liner can also be installed as a bench toilet without using the bottom piece. This can be advantageous if the distance to the tank is short (allowing the tank to come up closer to the floor or even be above the floor).
The compost worm Eisenia Foetida is a very shy small earth-worm who can cope with the higher nitrogen content found in manure piles.It does not like dry or warm and might benefit from a watering device (see below).
This manual irrigation equipment is included in the package.
Option
A Gardena automatic watering timer.
Starter bed 600 liter is included in the package.
An extra bale available at 160 Kr.
An in-line ventilation fan provides the guarrantee for the odor-free operation. The fan is included in the package price and is augmented with two airtight connectors to a 110 mm sewer and drain pipe used for the ventilation. The fan has two speed options drawing 24/37 Watt. The sound level is 27/34 dB respectively which is quiet as fans go.
Easy to replace and carries a 10 year warranty.
Option
12Volt and 0.16Amp fan in a galvanized housing for installations without line power. Can be powered by a solar panel.
Based on 45 years experience
Background
Carl Lindström is a civ. egineer from KTH Stockholm and MIT Cambridge MA. He is the co-founder along with
his parents of the first commercial composting toilet Clivus AB, which later became Clivus Multrum AB. There
was an early assumtion that the system would produce solid compost. Over the years a new process has emerged
called Long-Term Composting (see video on the left) where the end-product is liquid and the solids is left
for several decades. Based on decades of observations, a next generation process-tanks have been developed,
taking less space and working with less maintenance and service than the older Clivus tanks. Carl was in
the 1970ies working for the Swedish Environ-mental Protection Board and later served as environmental attché
in Wash. DC. He works now as earlier with the US corporation Clivus Multrum USA Inc. In 2007 Carl founded
CompostEra AB in Sweden with sights set on solving waste problems in the Swedish archipelago, replacing
the older latrine-collection systems. The new tanks are dimensioned to go for 30-50 years without solids-removal.
Long-Term Composting has found great support in countries where ground water is vulnerable to pollution
from toilet-systems that do not stop disease organisms from spreading into the environent.
