    Did not like either: looks like machinery in a workshop.. Please have look at Trelino (Germany) and Separet Tiny (Sweden). The Trelino and the Tiny has no krank handle, no need. You simply do your bussiness directly into a plastic bag, ready for disposal. Less handling, less cleaning. None of these toilets are composting, they are all separating. Most videos shows getting rid of #2 in some trash bin, not returning it to nature.

    Its way too late but the gaps in the floor are from unstable climate control, if the temp drops below installation temp the flooring makes gaps, if it rises above installation temperature it buckles.

  • @BrucePotter
    @BrucePotter 4 місяці тому

    While these are good RV toilet solutions it galls me that the manufacturer claims they are composting toilets. This is NOT a composting toilet. It is a dry separating toilet. Calling it a composting loo is a marketing ploy so uniformed users can feel eco-virtuous. Unless you plan retaining the solids waste for several months to produce actual compost then this is not a composting toilet. It's a storage tank. Actual compost is bio-safe because it has been biologically sterilized over time with heat, enzymes, bacteria and more time. The output from this toilet is NOT compost and NOT biologically sterile. It is a pile of semi dried faeces and coir. Dumping the bagged waste in a trash can is definitely NOT environmentally responsible. Dumping it into an actual composting system would be the responsible action. However, all things considered dry separating toilets appear to be the lesser of evils.

    @hughburton9021 9 місяців тому

    This video appears to me to be an infomercial for Airhead. Comparisons usually have pros and cons.You certainly “dump” on NH. As a NH user of 9 years, I’m biased. All I can fairly comment on is real usage which appears to be not what you have done. Capacity: Nature’s Head Two adults pee bottle fills in approx 2 days of constant use on a sailboat . The solid part fills in about 17-18 days without putting any toilet paper in it. As for “looking” at the compost when R&R the pee container. Two quick clasps undone, Tilt the top enough to allow pee container to come up. One hand to tilt the top the other to remove the pee bottle reverse the process when you’re done and I don’t think I’ve ever seen the compost. I’ve talked online with Airhead users and they are happy with theirs as are NH users. Both are well made. Measure your space and govern yourself accordingly.

    Thank you for the informative video! I am about to order an airhead now. I am undecided on which size to get though "residential" vs "marine". The marine, which you show in the video does offer more space saving. How has it been for you to use? Have you had any regrets about not buying the slightly larger seat size with the residential airhead? Thank you kindly, Nick

    Cheers for the vid. Just on the Airhead site now, and there's an option to have the crank handle on either the left or the right. Also, a double-sized urine tank.... and also a choice on where the extractor pipe & fan are housed on the unit (side or back)... (also, the seat option, as well as the fan set up (it's an extractor fan, so it should be housed at the extraction point?). It looks like they're designing in some necessary options into their system in the span of a couple of years, .... This fact alone made me change the colour of the Airhead cell in my spreadsheet from white to deep green.

    The 99-02 7.3L Powerstroke is literally the toughest engine ever made for a truck. It came from the factory with forged rods and pistons, applications you usually only in 1000HP race cars. On top of that it only puts out about 250 horsepower, so its impossible to blow or be hard on. A literal tank of a truck. You can get a cheap (3-4k) used 99-02 7.3L with super high miles like 400k plus, but dont be scared by this.. check the blowback, these engines can go for 2 million miles or more. and the best part is they are exempt from almost all current diesel emissions requirements, meaning you don't need to run cats or DEF..
