A Guide to

BATHROOM FACILITIES

It may not be the most glamorous of subjects, but nevertheless, it is an important one. Every glamping site out there needs to have bathroom facilities available for guests, but this is sometimes easier said than done. There are a number of considerations to be made when looking for the right company to go with such as whether your site is on or off the grid along with whether you want each unit to have a private bathroom or a block that is shared with the entire site. Lacklustre bathroom facilities can have a huge impact on the experience a guest has at your site, so it is important to do the research and find the solution that is right for you

WOOWOO WATERLESS TOILETS waterlesstoilets.co.uk Who are WooWoo Waterless Toilets? WooWoo has been around for over 10 years, founded on the belief that our current ways of handling human ‘waste’ can create more problems than they solve in the long term. What do we offer? Our solutions range from simple DIY products that people can build into an existing structure, to modern compost toilets that look like regular flushing toilets, through to high capacity, low maintenance toilets suitable for municipal use. Most importantly, we offer excellent pre-sales advice to ensure people are getting the most appropriate solution for their situation.

Do your facilities require a mains water connection or septic tank installation? All our solutions share a common theme - no mains water or sewage connections are needed, so they’re ideal for use in remote locations. Many don’t need electricity either, so we really do offer completely off-grid solutions! Smaller, domestic-style units can be easily installed in an existing structure (including mobile dwellings such as shepherds huts and caravans) and our municipal solutions come complete with the building, including disabledaccessible units. Maintenance The maintenance varies depending on the particular product. The domestic-style waterless toilets, such as the Separett Villa, are typically suitable for use by 2-4 people and would require emptying on your guest changeover day. Our higher capacity systems such as the WooWoo

GT or Kazuba toilets require much less attention and can go for 3-6 months between maintenance (depending on use). Delivery and Installation Some products can be installed by the customer themselves and we typically carry these in stock in our UK warehouse for quick delivery. The larger solutions are made to order and need manufacturing and installation times factored in, but are usually around 8 weeks. Lifespan and Warranties This will vary depending on the product. Some of the manufacturers we work with offer a five-year warranty and we know from conversations with old customers, that they are being used twenty years on
