Wooden outhouse-type toilets are still being built in summer cottages. But civilization is advancing on lonely buildings, and summer residents are making useful changes to the designs of outdated closets.
Here are 6 innovations that added comfort to the latrine:
- Pipe ventilation.
- Wooden “thrones” with seats.
- Biogranules.
- Fan heating.
- Insulation.
- Natural flavors.
Innovations have made the toilets at the dacha warm, without smell and swarms of flies. These methods are proven in practice and can be used in any climate.
Ventilation
Now not a single country toilet can do without this device. An ordinary 145 mm sewer pipe cuts into the wall of the cabin. It consists of two parts: the first 50 cm is installed at an angle of 45 degrees, the second 3 m long is attached to the first with a corner for good traction.
Such a simple device removes all unpleasant odors, and the country toilet is always fresh and clean.
Wooden "thrones"
Pit toilets are rectangular buildings 2 m high with a round hole in the floor. This is what street toilets looked like quite recently, but a simple improvement has turned the toilet into a comfortable place to sit with a magazine.
Summer residents came up with a wide variety of wooden pedestals and equipped them with comfortable seats. And the Bref universal product for country toilets added cleanliness and freshness to them.
Biogranules with beneficial bacteria
Cabins for natural needs are now successfully treated with biological products.Doctor Robik, Expel, Sanex and Ekomik - granules for country toilets, created on the basis of living organisms - have been tested in practice. The bag is diluted in water and poured into a waste pit; unpleasant odors are eliminated by processing organic waste into odorless compost mass.
Heating
Thrifty owners do not install complex heating systems in closets, but use conventional heat fans.
When it's minus 6 outside, this simple device will help you avoid catching a cold. 2-3 minutes before the visit, you need to turn on the fan and point it at the toilet seat. The device will heat not only the lid, but the entire room. Gatherings in the country toilet in winter will become quite comfortable.
Insulation
The summer season is often accompanied by drafts and heavy rains. To protect the wooden closet, it is sheathed with accessible and inexpensive insulation. Thick drywall, mineral wool or foam plastic are used, and to be sure, the walls are covered with ordinary polyethylene.
Interior wood trim adds beauty and comfort. And summer residents are no longer bothered by the cold wind that used to come through from all the cracks.
Natural flavors
Hardworking gardeners do not throw away anything, not even weeds. When the season of tomato planting is in full swing, tomato tops accumulate in plastic basins.
Green biomass goes into the cesspool of country toilets. Odors and insect accumulations instantly disappear.
These folk and industrial remedies are successfully used in dachas.Now it’s much more comfortable in wooden closets, and with the onset of spring, only pleasant aromas spread around the area.
