(EN)  INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. PLANNING AND INSTALLATION

When selecting the location for and erecting the Composting Toi-

let Biolan

eco

, it is essential to provide sufficient space for use and 

maintenance of the toilet, to route the ventilation pipe without 

any bends through the roof over the ridge and to locate the seep 

liquid canister in a suitable place. See the dimension drawing for 

the toilet unit (page 2).
Place the toilet unit directly on sufficiently firm ground or con-

crete surface. Do not place the tank on a boarded floor, because 

of possible seepage from the lower door.

1.1 Technical specifications

•  top size 65 x 65 cm

•  total height to the top 97 cm, to the seat cover 103 cm

•  volume about 200 l

•  weight about 24 kg

•  external diameter of the liquid removal hose 32 mm,    

length 33,5 cm - 93,5 cm

•  external diameter of the ventilation pipe 75 mm,  

 

length 2 x 1 m

•  volume of the canister 25 l, dimensions 45 x 23 x 28 cm 

 

1.2  To be observed if used in winter

If you plan to use the toilet continuously in winter, install the unit 

in a warm space and also make sure that the drain hose and the 

seep liquid canister do not freeze. If installing the toilet in a warm 

space indoors, insulate the ventilation pipe of the toilet where it 

runs through cold spaces, for example, in the intermediate roof 

space, to prevent condensation of water.
The toilet can be used occasionally in winter (= weekend use) 

even if the unit is located in a cold space. See point 2.6.

1.3 Locating the Composting Toilet Biolan

eco 

in the toilet space

Install the Composting Toilet Biolan

eco

 through the floor so that 

the top of the compost tank (part 9) will serve as the seat ring. 

The height of the unit is 97 cm and normally the seat height is 

45–50 cm. Leave about half of the unit under the floor of the 

building to achieve a comfortable seat height. 
Optionally, you can place an appropriate step in front of the seat. 

If you want, you can encapsulate the seat part out of sight. In this 

case, also provide a hole in the wooden top for the replacement 

air valve (Part 12).
Using for example a keyhole saw or a jig saw, cut a suitable hole 

for the toilet unit out of the floor using the sawing template as a 

guide. Depending on the manufacturing technique, the size and 

shape of the tank vary slightly. This means you may have to en-

large the hole a bit or the seam of the floor and the tank will not 

be completely tight. You can make the seam neat, for example, by 

fixing a thick hemp rope at the seam.

1.4 Direction of the emptying door

You can install the toilet unit with the emptying door (part 3) at 

its lower part facing in the desired direction. If the emptying door 

faces the sidewall, turn the seat top of the toilet unit to the sit-

ting position.  Remove the top by jerking it firmly. Leave a fair-

sized maintenance door (with a minimum width of 80 cm and 

minimum height of 35 cm) in the lower part of the toilet building 

for the emptying of toilet waste.
