INSTALLATION PLANNING

It's all in the planning!

For proper operation of the toilet you should consider a number of issues.

The design of the site and building needs to allow for:

• An elevated starting point for liquid to flow by gravity from the toilet down into a liquid absorption

trench which is to be dug outside the toilet. The whole toilet needs to sit on level ground, IF

ANYTHING SLOPING SLIGHTLY BACKWARDS.

• Space for the toilet and a firm, dry and sheltered base for it to sit.

• Adequate access to service and maintain the toilet, i.e. remove the full container and replace it

with an empty one.

• Good ventilation to provide oxygen and evaporate liquids

• Electrical supply (240VAC or 12VDC) to the fan location

The Oz-e-Pod is supplied as a kit containing most of the components required and can be installed

using basic building tools and materials available at plumbing suppliers or hardware shops

Installation of the Kiwi Pod involves:

1. Preparing a flat, level and firm base for the composting container to sit

2. Installing the ventilation pipe-work, including fan and vent cowl

3. Connecting the ventilation pipe work, electrical connection and excess liquids pipe

4. Preparing the excess liquids dispersal trench

5. Final checks before use

Space Required

There is no ideal set of measurements which will suit all applications but you do need to provide

enough space to locate and install the toilet, enough space to fit and maintain the air vent piping and

fan and enough space to access and exchange the containers, so allow space to remove and store the

bins.



Don't plan to install a light directly over the pedestal/waste chute as this will attract flying

insects.



Don't use your toilet fan. It's suction works against the suction of the fan of the Oz-e-Pod.

Most Kiwi Pods are installed indoors and are usually screwed (drill suitable pilot holes in base) or

glued to the floor.
