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.

:

This may be caused by a number of factors:

THE TEMPERATURE IS TOO LOW

 

for effective composting.

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 
vent 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. 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 thoroughly 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 
decomposition.

:

This may happen due to one or more of the problems described above. You could 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. However, 
if you find the pile is drying out too quickly put the chamber in a shadier position.

If you find that 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.

If you need to change your ‘In-service’ chamber and the ‘Out-of-service’ chamber is not yet composted, 
dispose of the waste as normal and order an extra chamber from Ecoflo.
