Nature Loo toilets have proven themselves to be one of the easiest systems to manage. However, being a 

natural process, reliant on a number of factors beyond our control, it can occasionally need some help to 
maintain an appropriate balance.

chamber is filling too quickly:

 

This may be caused by a number of factors:

 

The temperature is too low

 for effective composting. 

 

With the Classic 850 you can improve this problem by wrapping the chamber in insulating material (including the 
base), OR use a chamber with a heating element option (page 9). 

 

Insufficient air flow.

 

 

This can be caused by a broken fan or the chamber being too full. Check the fan is operating and the 
level of the pile is not too high. This problem could also be caused by a blocked insect screen in the 
cowl.   

 

The pile being too wet. 

 

This could be the result of the outlet of the liquid chamber being blocked and causing the upper chamber 
to flood. (This would also cause the fan to malfunction). Check the drain hose is not blocked and flush 
with a hose if necessary. You may need to change chambers if the blockage is in the chamber and thor-
oughly flush out the contents of the liquid chamber.

 

Antibiotics and disinfectants will slow down or stop the process

.

 Restart the composting by 

reintroducing microorganisms. In many of these situations Nature Flush Enzymes will help 
solve inefficient composting by breaking down the solids and thereby speeding up decomposi-
tion.

chamber is composting too slowly: 

 

This may happen due to one or more of the problems described above. At this point the most effec-
tive course of action is to aerate the pile by turning it over with the Compost Mixer. You could also 
add 500ml of Nature Flush Enzymes from a domestic spray bottle as you turn the material and add a 
quantity of Nature Quick Microbes. 

 

 

You should consider locating the chamber where it has a greater exposure to direct sun light. Howev-
er, if you find the pile is drying out too quickly put the chamber in a shadier position. 

 

 

If you find none of the above measures are effective, it means the local climatic conditions are less 
than ideal. This can happen in cold or humid conditions and you will need to purchase an additional 
chamber in order to provide an extended composting period.
