INSTALLATION STEP 1: POSITION THE PEDESTAL Locate the approximate area where you want the pedestal to go before cutting the hole. The usual position for pedestals is centred between side walls. NOTE: Due to the pedestals being man made, the distance to the centre may vary from 245 to 255mm.
STEP 2: POSITION THE WASTE CHUTE A 240mm hole must be cut in the toilet room floor to accommodate the waste chute. Following the provided pedestal floor template, mark the location of the centre hole 245- 255mm (9.64” -10”) from the back wall. Drill a small hole. Side wall Back wall Go to the underfloor area and look for...
STEP 3: INSTALL THE WASTE CHUTE First ensure the pad or ground level on which the ‘In-service’ chamber will reside is at its final level beneath the toilet room. Place the chamber (without the lid) next to the chute. Mark the height of the chamber onto the chute.
OPTIONAL EXTRA WASTE CHUTE LENGTHS If the underfloor height exceeds 1200mm (floor-to-floor), you will require additional lengths of chute, fixed together with small stainless steel self-tapping screws below the flange of the additional waste chute. As the chute joints are tappered, the top waste chute must be inserted through the toilet room floor first with additional waste chutes added from below.

POWERING YOUR FAN ains OwEr A 240/12 volt regulated transformer is included to run the fan from mains power. The positive wire on the transformer is marked with a white line. The fan has anti-polarity protection and would not run if connected incorrectly. It is recommended to keep a spare fan, particularly after a year of use.
LEACHATE DRAIN A leachate drain kit (not including gravel) is available to purchase separately from Ecoflo Wastewater Management. Alternatively, if your council allows, you may wish to construct your own leachate drain. The liquid drain hose should run into either a 50mm PVC pipe (drilled to allow liquid to escape) OR a length of socked slotted Ag pipe, buried in an absorption trench as shown in the diagram below.
COMPOST ACCELERATORS Whilst Clivus Multrum users report successful composting without the use of any additives, we strongly recommend the use of the following items in order to optimize composting, particularly when the toilet is in permanent use by more than two people.
STARTING WITH AN EMPTY CHAMBER Before connecting your chamber to the waste chute, add an even 50mm layer of bulking agent and dampen slightly with water. Complete the installation of the chamber (refer to Step 5, Install the In-Service Chamber). You can start using your chamber now. Slightly dampen the bulking agent with water.

ROTATING THE CHAMBERS The chambers will need to be changed on a regular basis. A sufficient number of chambers must be purchased to allow the ‘out-of-service’ chamber a minimum of 6 months to compost (depending on the climate) from the time they are disconnected from the waste chute.

Ow can tEll if My cOMpOst is rEaDy The size of the pile should have reduced in size by approximately 20%. Finished compost should appear crumbly and moist (similar to fresh potting mix), not sodden or dry. It should not have any offensive odour, just an earthy one. Also, the pile should not be producing high heat any longer.
TROUBLESHOOTING Clivus Multrum 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.

‘ ’ hE ODOur frOM thE sErvicE chaMBEr is unplEasant If the ‘Out-of-service’ chamber is not connected to the vent pipe it may smell immediately after it has been taken ‘Out-of-service’. Odours can be greatly reduced or eliminated by covering the top of the pile with straw or dry grass clippings. You may wish to do this before disconnecting the chamber.
PRODUCT & COMPONENT WARRANTY Ecoflo will furnish new parts to a customer whose toilet fails within the allotted warranty period for the particular component, provided that our inspection shows such failure is due to defective material or workmanship. Any part supplied is warranted for the balance of the original warranty period.
