Advantages And Disadvantages Of Dry Toilets RV

By Timothy West


As resources such as water and power become scarce and expensive there is a need for people to shift to lavatories that spend less of these. Traditional septic-based systems require water to flush. On average, a single person uses seven gallons of water daily to flush waste. Conversely, no water or power is needed to move the excrete in dry toilets RV. Instead of draining this trash in an underground septic tank, it is recycled. By the addition of various products, waste decomposes to produce manure that can be used to fertilize farms just like animals waste. The below paragraphs explain a number of benefits and losses of having such systems.

To begin with, compost lavatories are less expensive and faster to set up compared to traditional counterparts. For middle-income homeowners, this is quite expensive. Additionally, installing tanks and pipes takes time while intensive labor must be put in. Conversely, modern compost facilities cost less than this. There is no need for tanks or water for flushing. Since a few components are required to set it up, completion of installation takes a few days.

They are an eco-friendly option. First, no water is needed to flush out defecate. Averagely, every person who uses this option saves seven thousand gallons of water in a year. Secondly, excrete is held in compartments for decomposition. Like animal excrete, human defecate contains a lot of nutrients that could be used to grow healthy crops. No trash is created through these systems since everything is composted to manure.

For individuals that are concerned about space, they could save a considerable size of their plots through this facility. For traditional lavatories, where main houses are built determines the positioning of septic tanks and thus how piping will be done. Sometimes this may end up utilizing a large space. Conversely, no such considerations are needed for waterless facilities. For this reason, it can utilize the best space available.

Being a standalone facility, there is minimal maintenance required. For instance, if it is a model where owners are required to do mixing personally, this may be the only maintenance practice needed. Furthermore, most sellers provide lifetime warranties. In case of any damage, it is up to them to repair.

Additionally, waterless amenities relieves homes of burdens that could be created by other facilities. Similarly, piping is already a burden based on how many components require this. In addition, homeowners could be strained in terms of water usage. Composting systems use minimal resources but deliver better results.

Even with all these advantages, waterless facilities have a number of disadvantages. Some models cannot contain odor fully leading to air pollution. Such could raise issues with neighbors who find it hard to tolerate. To reduce this, buying models with double compartments to separate wet waste from waterless may help. Also, owners can buy certain products to help reduce the smell.

Systems with one composition compartment will require owners to build separate septic. Normally, waste can be wet and waterless. For single compartments, these two end up in the same basin. Consequently, different levels of composition are created. For this reason, it will take longer for waste to decompose completely which might not be a good idea.
