Accessories and Parts

To speed up the composting process and provide a fresh fragrance with the push of a button, enzymes can be sprayed into the chamber. In the case of the Compact toilet you can either add these manually using a hand held domestic spray flask or by purchasing our micro dosing pump kit, which produces an evenly distributed spray directly onto the contents of the chamber. In the case of the Classic, and Weekender toilets it is more effective to use the pump kit due to the inaccessibility of the chamber with a hand held spray flask. If you like the idea of ‘flushing’ after ‘toileting’ we recommend the micro Flush Kit. Please note that the flushing only involves biodegradable enzymes and not a water supply. Flush kits are not available on the Excel.

The kits contain a micro flush foot pump, storage container, pipes, nozzles and enough enzyme concentrate for 4000 flushes. If you plan to power your toilet using low rated solar or wind power then we particularly recommend the use of enzymes.

Except in the case of the Excel NE, which normally operates successfully without a fan, you must ensure that the toilet fan is running 24 hours a day. This is to prevent odours, and improve the composting process, If the fan isn’t running, you can expect to experience odours and slower composting. There are various ways to power the fan…

Mains Powered Dwelling

If your property is supplied with mains electricity, then it is a simple matter of plugging the 12 volt transformer into a power point and connecting it to the fan. In case of mains power failure you might care to purchase our UPS which ensures power during outages.

Solar Powered Dwelling

If your house is powered by solar, then you will normally have a 12 or 24 volt DC battery bank. If you have a 12volt system, just connect the battery directly to the fan. Don’t forget to put a 0.5 amp fuse in line to the fan. If you have a 24 volt system, ask us to supply a 24 volt fan. The 12 volt 2 watt fan will use about 6 amp-hours of power.

Stand Alone Batteries / Wind Assisted Ventilators

A fully charged 12 volt 40 amp-hours sealed lead acid battery should power the 2 watt fan for 3-4 days. If the dwelling is in permanent use or you want the fan to work continuously you will need to have a second battery recharging. Wind assisted ventilators are another possible choice that operate at wind speeds of 5 km/hr and above ($175).

Solar Panels

A 30watt solar panel connected to a regulator and sealed lead acid 12 volt 33 amp hour battery should give you continuous power to the fan even during poor weather. However, during the winter months in the southern states the panel may not generate adequate power to allow the fan to operate at its design speed. This could result in flattening the battery, which should be avoided. Under these conditions it may be necessary to add a timer, to switch the fan off during the night, or install a larger panel. The cost of the 30watt system, if purchased from Nature Loo is $495, excluding cables and freight.

Shipping Cost

For items shipped with a Classic toilet there is no charge. For items shipped with other toilets please request a quote.

Nature Loo offers a variety of fibre glass pedestals for use with home made DIY toilets and some other waterless composting toilet manufaturer’s systems, most of whom do not offer ceramic pedestals. Please check your toilet supplier’s dimension requirements before ordering. We have different styles and a choice of ceramic or fibre glass pedestals.

We supply timber or white plastic seats with the pedestals.

All pedestals incorporate a groove in the underside of the base which allows our waste chute to be inserted, eliminating the risk of leakage. We can also supply fibre glass coloured pedestals at the standard cost plus 10%. There is a delivery delay on these of up to 10 weeks.
