Customer Reviews For This Product
The MOBILE is a medium capacity self-contained composting toilet that's specifically designed for use on boats and RVs. This unit is certified by the US Coast Guard and is one of a kind. For the first time, people can go wherever they want without having to worry about pump outs. Now travelers can recycle their waste without polluting water and dealing with messy chemical toilets.
Because the MOBILE needs to deal with potentially violent motion, it has been completely marinized, meaning that the finishing drawer is gasketed and the air intakes are baffled to prevent any leaks from escaping the unit. A special drum lock ensures that the composting drum is held upright under all sea or road conditions. The MOBILE also features a fold-away footrest with spring-loaded legs and a safety release mechanism so it can be easily removed for accessing the finishing drawer. Additionally, strong mounting brackets are attached at the rear and base of the unit, so it can be bolted to the floor in installation.
The MOBILE features a vertical 3" vent stack coming out the top of the unit and running straight upward. In boat installations, it is optimal to have the unit vent above deck level, though we know that this isn't always possible. For that reason, the MOBILE comes with a filter box to be fitted into the vent stack. This filter contains zeolite and carbon for removal of ammonia odors and ensure odor-free operation at deck level.
The MOBILE has various electrical components including a fan assembly to ensure odorless operation and a thermostatically controlled heater that warms and helps evaporate liquid. These components can be configured for either AC or DC systems. When placing your order, you will need to specify whether you want the unit configured for a 12 volt DC system or a 110/115 volt AC electrical system.
The MOBILE composting toilet has been tested and certified by the NSF for residential use and by the United States Coast Guard for use on boats. This means that it has been tested to NSF/ANSI Standard #41-1999, the only standard for composting toilets in North America, and it is certified to operate odorlessly and produce a clean, safe compost. For verification, please see Sun-Mar's
NSF Listing
and the
U.S. Coast Guard Certification Letter
.
How to operate the MOBILE:
For initial start up, add some
Compost Sure
(peat bulking material) into the Bio-Drum together with some
Microbe Mix
.
Use any toilet paper you want; the composting toilet will compost it without a problem.
For ongoing operation, add
Compost Sure
as specified in the product instruction manual. Every 2-3 days (while unit is in use), rotate the drum 5 or 6 full revolutions.
When the Bio-Drum is half to 2/3 full, some of the compost should be moved to the finishing drawer. To do this, simply release the drum lock and rotate the drum backwards. Finished compost drops automatically into the finishing drawer. This process takes less than a minute, and most importantly, you never come into contact with fresh material.
When compost is moved to the finishing drawer, it should be left there for at least 4 weeks so it can finish and sanitize. In the finishing drawer, it will be isolated from contamination by fresh material in the toilet. Once 4 weeks have passed, you can remove the finished compost from the finishing drawer at any time. The drawer is easily pulled out by hand; no tools are needed to open it.
What do you do with the finished compost? Add it to your flower garden! The finished product is clean, dry, non-offensive, and sanitary. It will look and smell just like any other regular compost that might come out of a garden composter.

Here are a couple of photos of our composting toilet. We use the composter at our remote high desert home. Friends are always fascinated when they first see the composter. It certainly provokes thoughts on solutions for the need to conserve water here in the arid West.
