IMPORTANT INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Please read and understand all of these basic installation guidelines before beginning the installation of your Envirolet®/SG
Composting Toilet System. We have included a check box area to help you.

GUIDELINE
CHECK
BOX þ
1
Inspect package (box) contents immediately upon delivery of system to ensure that there are no missing or
broken parts. Report any issues within 24 hours.
☐
2
Follow all safety guidelines and Install & operate your Envirolet®/SG Composting Toilet System as directed.
Do not use “third party” parts or components in your systems installation (Exception: 4” rigid vent pipe (PVC) for
Remote System venting and 3” rigid drain pipe (ABS) for Low Water Remote System draining).
☐
3
Envirolet®/SG Composting Toilet Systems are only for blackwater (toilet wastewater). Do not add
greywater (sink, shower, kitchen water, etc.) to your system.
☐
4
Use within listed capacity. Over-use of system could result in performance issues. Refer to Rated Capacity
Chart.
☐
5
Do not remove the Paper Mat located in Envirolet®/SG composting unit/tank component (under Rake). This
is not packing material. It is an important component to proper system start-up.
☐
6
Do not use any 90° angles or bends in your vent installation. This is extremely important rule to follow. 90°
angles can create an impedance in the vent and slow down airflow and evaporation thus affecting the
performance.
You will notice this NO 90° BENDS image throughout this manual.
☐
7
If your system has a drain (front-right near bottom) be sure to connect it to a proper holding container or drain
site (check local regulations). Ensure drain is gravity fed from the composting unit to the drain site. All
systems except waterless AC electric models (if operated with fans and heater as directed) require drains.
☐
8
If you are installing a 12VDC, 120VAC or 230VAC Electric system (with dual fans) be sure to operate fans and
heater as directed even if you think it is not required. Systems with fans are designed to function and perform
properly with the fans running. A static fan (not running) can cause an impedance in the vent line slowing
evaporation.
☐
9
With Low Water Remote or FlushSmart VF Systems, be sure to test water flush from toilet without connecting
drain to remote composting system to avoid system “flooding.”
☐
10
Be sure to follow winter use guidelines (see Winter Use section) if you plan to use your system in the winter or
during freezing or near freezing conditions. Remember, water freezes! Do not use chemicals to prevent freezing,
as this will harm the composting process.
☐
11
The included Water Regulator (water supply) must be installed with FlushSmart VF Systems as this properly
regulates water use in the toilet.
☐
12
IMPORTANT IF USING A LOCAL INSTALLER: If you are having your system installed by a plumber or
contractor, please be sure they follow all directions and/or contact us for technical support. Envirolet®/SG
Composting Toilet Systems install and operate much different than traditional sanitation systems.
