Installation FAQ 

1) Must I install the vent?

 

 
Yes

, in order to ensure odorless operation. 

 

2) Vent pipe leading out of the toilet 

 
When you are installing the vent pipe

, completely 

avoid ANY downward sloping or horizontal runs, 

no matter how small.

 

 

3) How many bends can I put in the vent pipe?

 

 

Electric Systems

No more than four 45° bends

There 

should not

 be any 

horizontal

 runs (no matter 

how small) or downward slopes of the pipe. Fasten 
your pipe with the supplied brackets to prevent 
settling.

 

 

Non-Electric

No more than two 45° bends

 

 

4) Can I merge the toilet vent with an existing 
plumbing vent

 

No

. We realize that this will make your installation 

easier, but if the toilet is not installed with its own vent, 
it will hamper the airflow, and will lead to 

odors

. In 

addition, other plumbing fixtures connected to the 
same vent will start to smell of ammonia. 

The toilet 

needs to be installed with its own vent in order to 
function odorlessly.

 

5) Where does the diffuser go?

 

 
On top of the vent stack

.

 

 

6) I have a metal roof, an obstruction or a steeply 
pitched roof. Must I have the vent above the peak 
of the roof? 

 

Yes

. If the vent ends under the eave, the air from the 

vent will downdraft over the property, possibly causing 
a urine smell to occur. The vent should be installed 24-
30 inches above the peak of the roof to prevent 
downdraft.  
 

7) How will I secure the stack if I need go to 24-30 
inches above the peak of the roof?

 

Guy wires. These should be available at your local 
hardware store; you may have already used them 
for other applications.

 

8) Can I use venting other than what is 
supplied? 
 
No

, always use the recommended venting. 

Schedule 40 venting has a smaller inside diameter 
that will reduce venting capacity, and may result in 
odor. 

Flexible venting should not be used in any 

application of a CENTREX 3000 toilet

, as this will 

result in odor around the toilet.

 

9) Do I need to plug in my electric toilet?  

Yes

. Your composting toilet should be plugged in 

continuously unless it will not be used for 3 or more 
consecutive days. 

10) Will I need an overflow drain on my Centrex 
3000 or my Centrex 3000 NE?  

While both toilets have a considerable evaporating 
capacity, an overflow drain will be required in all 
installations. 

11) Do I really need an overflow drain with a 
non-electric toilet? 

Yes

. You will have overflow liquid, even with limited 

usage.  

12) What should the overflow drain be 
connected to? 

All effluent handling systems should be in 
accordance with local regulatory practices.  

13) The area where the composter is  
       installed can get below 55

° 

F (13°C) at  

       times. Will this affect composting?

 

 

Yes

. If the toilet is being used continuously, you will 

need to install an additional heat source, and build 
an insulated box around the composter (if installed 
outside), see page 14 for further details.
