Installation Specifications
CENTREX 3000
Space Required and other Installation Considerations
1) Ensure that the unit is installed on a level surface or sloping slightly towards the safety drain.
2) Ensure the CENTREX 3000 is protected from precipitation.
3) To ensure that the CENTREX 3000 is accessible for ongoing maintenance, install the composter in an area with a
minimum height of 30”.
DIGGING BELOW GROUND TO FACILITATE THE INSTALLATION OF THE CENTREX 3000
IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
4) Compost will be removed from the finishing drawer at the front of the toilet. Ensure that there is at least 17”
in front of the CENTREX 3000 so that the drawer may be removed from the composter unit. (See page 12)
5) The safety drain is required in
ALL
installations. Install the unit in a location where the safety drain can be connected.
This drain exits from the left side of the unit and must slope downward at all points. (See page 9)
6) Install in a location where the vent pipe can be attached. (See page 7)
7) To ensure proper ventilation, install in a location that is not air tight. The toilet must be able to vent to ensure
odorless operation.
8) The fan will run continuously 24 hours per day while in use. A ground fault interrupter (GFI) circuit is recommended for
any toilet installed. If you are in an area where you experience power fluctuations, you may wish to use a surge protector
Some 230V models may have an over current protection device on the heating element circuit, which is intended to
protect the fuse and is located on the electric box.

odorless operation.
8)
Competing appliances (i.e. wood stove) may need an air intake installed from the outdoors. The CENTREX 3000 NE has
a passive vent. Competing appliances can draw a lot of air and may cause your composting toilet vent to release air into
the building rather than venting to the outside. A 12volt 2.4watt (included)
fan will be necessary.
