This figure portrays a typical composting toilet – the Nature-Loo Classic. The toilet comprises a ceramic pedestal with a wooden seat. A waste shoot goes down to a composting chamber underneath the toilet in the under-house area. A hose drains liquids away from underneath the composting chamber, while a flexible air hose leads up to a 100mm vent pipe. This has a fan and a moisture trap and is capped by a vent cap with insect screen and rain hood.
