The toilet's performance is difficult to calculate as it depends on the different wastes deposited in the toilet and the external ambient temperature. A spaced and more consistent frequency will be easier to manage in liquid evaporation than a very short period of usage. Constant and annual evaporation of liquids will eventually empty the tank in the long term. If usage is more intense than expected, solids will not be able to dehydrate due to the continual addition of liquid, and therefore, tank emptying will be more frequent in those areas. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">What safety considerations are associated with using the ecological toilet? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tThe main construction is made of robust and weather-resistant steel.

Sliding doors have been designed to prevent and reduce injuries during operation. The door lock is designed so that a person with reduced mobility can easily unlock it without requiring great dexterity, as it is a lever to push down.

Additionally, its design allows for easy repair or replacement at minimal cost. Its battery system stores energy during the day, discharges it at night, and automatically recharges the next day in varying light conditions, whether it's brightness or full sunlight. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">What is the procedure in case of malfunction of the solar ventilation system? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tThe procedure in case of ventilation system malfunction may vary. Generally, it is recommended to contact the manufacturer's technical support for assistance. However, the toilet will still be operational, although its evaporation function may be reduced. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">Is the ecological toilet equipped with an alarm system in case of issues? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tNo alarm or monitoring system is installed. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">How does the ecological toilet withstand vandalism? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tThe thickness of the walls and construction is designed to withstand manual impact vandalism without blunt objects. Reinforced panels are designed to resist human physical impacts. The locking system and door system are also commercially designed to reduce breakage. However, vandalism such as graffiti can be managed through cleaning, similar to a regular steel building. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">What is the recommended periodicity for preventive maintenance of the ecological toilet? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tThe recommended periodicity for preventive maintenance may vary depending on usage and environmental conditions. Specific recommendations can be provided in the user manual. However, we recommend visual inspections during pickups and a complete cleaning once a year, with a more thorough inspection of components to ensure the proper functioning of the dry toilet. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">Can the ecological toilet be installed on uneven surfaces? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tAll cabin installations start with the foundation, and while it's possible to install the cabin on uneven terrain, the foundation must always be level for proper installation. Access to the front door, mainly for people with reduced mobility, should also be leveled for easier wheelchair access. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">How is the product delivered and installed on-site? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tPlease refer to the technical data sheets on transportation and delivery. The steel cabin is delivered in a custom-made wooden box, and the tank and its accessories are delivered separately on-site. There will also be separate packaging for solar panel equipment. For a typical cabin, you will have three boxes to install all of your shelters. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">What are the estimated operating costs for the permanent ecological toilet? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tPeriodic maintenance costs and tank pumping fees will need to be provided by your local supplier or subcontractor in your area. However, costs are generally lower than a traditional dry toilet since the separation of solids and liquids allows for selective collection. This means that only a small portion of the pickup, solids, needs to be collected, while the liquid portion, if the geographical situation is optimal, should not need to be collected since evaporation through our ventilation system should occur gradually throughout the year. However, we recommend an annual pump-out combined with a visual inspection to ensure product longevity. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">What are the warranty conditions related to solar components? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tWarranty conditions for solar components are detailed more specifically on the solar component warranty sheet. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">Can the ecological toilet be used in flood-prone areas? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tThe ability of the dry toilet to be used in flood-prone areas depends on the installation height. Additionally, if flooding submerges the aluminum floor, the joints below the bowl and the joints on the tank maintenance cap would fill with water. Therefore, tank pumping would be required when the floodwaters recede. Even with flooding, there would be no damage to the product. \t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h6 class=\"qodef-accordion-title\">\n\t<span class=\"qodef-tab-title\">What quality tests has your product undergone? <\/span>\n\t<span class=\"qodef-accordion-mark\">\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--plus\">+<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"qodef-icon--minus\">-<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n<\/h6>\n<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content\">\n\t<div class=\"qodef-accordion-content-inner\">\n\t\tQuality tests include evaluations of robustness, weather resistance, ventilation performance, and other critical aspects.
