The Simplett Plus dry toilet is always used while sitting to ensure separation of solid matter and liquid.
When using the toilet for the first few times, it is recommended that you pay attention to a correct sitting position so that the urine is directed to the right place.
Remember to guide your guests in how to use the toilet.
In addition to toilet waste, you can throw toilet paper and compostable sanitary wipes in your Simplett Plus dry toilet.
Do not throw the following in the toilet:
- sanitary towels, trash
- chemicals, lime
- detergents, washing water
- ash, cigarette ends, matches
Using the bulking agent
Using a suitable bulking agent is crucial for the proper functioning of the toilet. The recommended bulking agent is Biolan Toilet Bulking Material. Before use, place a couple of centimetres of the bulking agent on the bottom of the receptacle. Fill the bulking agent container with bulking agent.
Unloading the receptacle
When the receptacle in the toilet is full, it is unloaded in the composter. Open the locks behind the bulking agent container and turn the container on top of the seat. Open the container lid. Lift up the receptacle from the device and unload it .
Place the unloaded receptacle back inside the device, close the lid, lift the bulking agent container up, and lock the latches. If you use a biodegradable bag inside the container, place the contents and the bag separately in the composter to make the composting process more efficient. You can also place a piece of newspaper on the bottom of the receptacle under the bulking agent.
Emptying the liquid tank
Empty the liquid tank when required, but always before winter to prevent the tank from breaking when it freezes. Urine contains a lot of nutrients, especially nitrogen. It can be used right away as a fertiliser in the garden by diluting it with water in a ratio of 1:5 or as such after letting it stand for three months.
