The best toilet for a boat is a composting one! The smallest efficient composting toilet is an AIR HEAD

The AIR HEAD toilet is a clever device. It separates the urine from the solid matter. The urine can be easily disposed of in many ways - down a drain, in a public toilet even in a hole in the ground (with permission). The solid matter is composted in the unit and need only be emptied after several months to a year, depending on usage. There is a small fan (12 volt - 80mA) which draws air over the compost and ensures good drying and decomposing of the waste.

We sold an initial batch of these in a few weeks and are now getting regular supplies as we are confident they will become the standard fitting on many boats.

Their popularity will be boosted by their small size, needing a space 18 1/2" wide by 17 1/2" deep (47cm x 45cm). The unit stands 19" high (48cm).

Note that these toilets can be used in houses, motorhomes, caravans, horse-boxes, infact anywhere that needs a toilet!

This toilet is exactly the same as the one above, but has the attraction of a wooden seat for those who want a more traditional look.

The best toilet for a boat is a composting one! The most advanced composting toilet is a Separett Mobile

The Separett toilet is a clever device. It separates the urine from the solid matter. The urine can be easily disposed of in many ways - down a drain, in a public toilet even in a hole in the ground (with permission). The solid matter is composted in the unit and need only be emptied after several months to a year, depending on usage. There is a fan (12 volt - 0.2A) which draws air over the compost and ensures good moisture evaporation and decomposing of the waste.

They are not large - a unit measures 17" wide by 25" deep (44cm x 64cm). It stands 18" high (46cm).

These are the big brother of the Air Head and were originally designed for domestic use. However we have adapted them for boat use and offer three variations on the basic toilet: Model 1 uses a small reservoir with pump to transfer the urine to a 45 litre low level holding tank, which can be wheeled away when it needs emptying (typically monthly for live-aboards, annually for holiday use); Model 2 is similar, but uses a 30 litre portable drum for standing in a suitable storage area; the Replacement Model is designed to replace an existing pump out toilet and pumps the urine to an existing tank purely as a urine store. The basic toilet can be used for other configurations or to replace a drop-through toilet (such as a Mansfield)

Note that these toilets can be used in houses, motorhomes, caravans, horse-boxes, infact anywhere that needs a toilet! In these cases the replacement model is all that is needed unless a gravity drain is impractical in which case one of the other models will be needed.

We have sold many composting toilets, but until now there hasn't been a biological liquid for rinsing the toilet or avoiding urine smells.

We have now developed a liquid which can be used in a sprayer for rinsing the bowl of a composting toilet or for using in a urine tank on a separating toilet to avoid smells developing.

If you have a composting toilet you should try one and see if you don't agree that this is the best fluid available for your toilet.

If you want a composting toilet and are prepared to get a bit more involved with managing the toilet, but want the least cost, then our Economy Composting Toilet is the way to go.

It is a simpler, but no less effective toilet using the same technology as the Air Head or Separett toilets, but without the additional features which make those toilets simple to use.

The Economy Composting toilet separates the urine from the solid matter. The urine can be easily disposed of in many ways - down a drain, in a public toilet even in a hole in the ground (with permission). The solid matter is composted in the unit and need only be emptied after a few weeks or months, depending on usage. There is a small fan (12 volt - 0.2A) which draws air over the compost and ensures good drying and decomposing of the waste and extracting the air through a 3" outlet

We have been selling composting toilets for many years, but price has often put people off. With this toilet it is no longer a barrier.. and this price is only available online.

The unit is 18" wide by 21" deep (45cm x 54cm). The unit stands 20" high (52cm).
