1.5 Installing the ventilation pipe
There are two Ø 75 mm holes in the seat top – one for the re-
placement air valve (part 12), the other for the ventilation pipe
(part 13). The holes are identical, so as required you can switch
the ventilation pipe and the replacement air valve. Route the ven-
tilation pipe from the toilet unit straight up over the roof ridge.
Any bends in the ventilation pipe impede natural ventilation,
causing odour and moisture problems. Seal the lead-through on
the roof using sealant suitable for the roofing material.
If installing the toilet in a warm space indoors, insulate the ven-
tilation pipe of the toilet where it runs through cold spaces, for
example, in the intermediate roof space, to prevent condensa-
tion of water.
If you have to make some bends, take note that the curvature of
such bends must not exceed 33 degrees. You can boost the venti-
lation and evaporation of moisture by means of the optional Bio-
lan Wind Fan. In complicated installations or when installing the
Composting Toilet
eco
in a residential location, it is recommended
to use the Biolan Exhaust Ventilator, which is installed in the ven-
tilation pipe. As required, you can even retro-fit the ventilator.
Where necessary, the ventilation pipe can be extended using the
ordinary grey sewage pipes and fittings (Ø 75 mm). You can pur-
chase ventilation pipes (part 13) also as a spare part by asking
your dealer to order it for you.
1.6 Draining the seep liquid
The liquid separator plate at the bottom of the Composting Toi-
let Biolan
eco
enables separation of excess liquid – the seep liq-
uid – from the compost mass. This plate is removable, so you can
take it away for cleaning, as required. Place the plate into the re-
cess in the bottom of the Composting Toilet Biolan
eco
.
Connect the seep liquid pipe to the drain hole in one side of the
toilet unit. Route the pipe into a canister. Bury the canister in the
ground, or place it some other way so that the seep liquid flows
by gravity into the canister. Keep in mind possible use of the toi-
let in winter when laying the seep liquid pipe and locating and in-
sulating the canister.
Where necessary, the liquid pipe can be extended using sewage
pipes and fittings (32 mm in diameter). You can purchase liquid
pipe also as a spare part by asking your dealer to order it for you.
Always use sleeves with a sealing ring for joining up the pipes.
Route the hose into a canister, which you have placed in such a
position that the liquid will flow into it by gravity. If you want, you
can build an externally insulated pit with a cover of film-faced
plywood (as shown in Figure 1 on page 4). If the seep liquid can-
ister is difficult to bury in the ground, you can replace it with a
smaller canister or an evaporating pan. Place a rain lid above the
evaporating pan – non-fertilized Biolan Ground Peat is recom-
mended for the neutralisation of odours. If you want, you can lay
the canister on its side.
The amount of seep liquid from the Composting Toilet Biolan
eco
is
small, depending on the use, about 0.2 to 0.5 litres/user/per day.
The seep liquid, however, is extremely rich in nutrients and must
not be allowed to enter soil without being treated first.
Liquids rich in nutrients must not be allowed to enter
the soil as they cause an excessively concentrated
nutrient load.
2. USING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE
COMPOSTING TOILET BIOLAN
eco
Proper use of the Composting Toilet Biolan eco allows more effi-
cient composting of the mass, and enables more convenient use
and emptying of the composter. Thanks to the thermal insulation
of the toilet, composting of the waste is efficient and thus the
capacity of the toilet unit is increased as the waste is greatly
compressed as a result of decomposition.
The composting process starts as soon as there is a sufficient
amount of waste in the composter, i.e. normally the unit is half-
full of waste. The temperature is raised and maintained by the vi-
tal functions of the micro-organisms that are created in the com-
poster provided that waste is added regularly. After start-up, the
waste reaches the cover soil stage in approximately 6-7 weeks.
The amount of seep liquid created is greatest at the start, but
is reduced as a result of warming up of the compost mass and
evaporation.
2.1 Before putting the Composting Toilet
Biolan
eco
to use
Make sure that the air channel (part 8) inside the compost tank
is still in place after transportation. The channel must rest on
the sill on the inside wall of the tank so that the inlet air valve
(parts 4 and 5) above the emptying door will allow unobstructed
airflow into the air channel. The inlet air valve cannot be adjusted.
Put a layer approximately 5 cm thick (about 20 l) of Biolan Com-
post and Toilet Bulking Material on the bottom of the Compost-
ing Toilet Biolan
eco
to prevent the liquid separator plate from
getting blocked.
2.2 Adjusting the replacement air valve
in the seat top
Ventilation of the toilet is controlled by means of the replace-
ment air valve (part 12) in the seat top.
Keep the replacement air valve open during summer to ensure
the ventilation remains efficient and the evaporation of liquids
intensive. Keep the replacement air valve almost closed during
winter to reduce heat loss from the compost. When the toilet is
not in use, keep the seat lid closed to ensure correct operation of
the ventilation.
2.3 Air channel inside the toilet tank
Operation of the Composting Toilet Biolan
eco
is very effective be-
cause of the air channel (part 8) inside the toilet unit. This chan-
nel conducts the required to the centre of the compost mass –
to the layer where it is needed most. At the same time, the air
channel prevents the compost mass from packing on the bottom
and keeps the mass elevated during emptying. The air channel is
visible at the initial stage, but after that, it is virtually obscured
by the mass all the time.
2.3.1 Adjusting the inlet air valve above
the emptying door
The inlet air valve above the emptying door (parts 4 and 5) can-
not be adjusted. Its purpose is to bring air into the air channel
(part 8). See point 2.3.
