Vent Stacks
One of the main tasks
is the installation of the vent stack, which is included with all units.
The vent kits included in the shipping
carton are sufficient for installation in most single story buildings.
If more is needed they are normally easy to find. All vent pipes are thinwall
PVC.

Toilet Installation
The second main task of
installing a central unit is the waste piping installation. Click
here for full information on how to do this.
Electrical
All electric units
are supplied with a power cord and pre-molded plug which connects to a standard
(3) pin 115 Volt outlet and powers both the fan and heating element. 12
Volt fans for non-electric models can be installed in-line with the stack,
and connected to a battery which draws from an alternate source of energy,
such as a solar panel. Drains
Central units are all fitted with 1"
drains, which should be connected to an approved drain pit, container, or
other facility. Click here for more information
on handling excess liquid.
Winter Use
SUN-MAR units serve as a reliable
year-round facility when prepared for continuous or periodic use during
the cold winter months. If you use your cabin only once in a while in the
winter, the unit may be used as a holding tank during this time. If your
SUN-MAR will be in use every weekend in the winter, or in a residence, the
temperature must be kept above 55° F at all times to keep
the compost going. Click here for more
information on winter use.
