SANTERRAGREEN ENVIRONMENTAL SANITATION SYSTEMS BY SANCOR

INTRODUCTIONThank you for considering Santerra Green for your sanitation requirements. There is a Santerra Green System that can provide an economical and environment-friendly solution in almost any application.

Our goal is that this booklet will assist you in selecting the best option. Do not hesitate to contact us and speak to a helpful customer service representative if you have questions.

HELLO

Although composting toilets have often been thought of as just for cottages & cabins this is not the case. As the technology has advanced the number of applications has expanded. Today, there are countless applications that demand an environmentally and economically sound solution including work shops, barns, garages, basements, warehouses, yurts, pool cabanas, homes and of course, cottages & cabins. For this reason Santerra Green offers many options and configurations, including the modern FlushSmart VF line of products. Reason to choose a composting toilet include:

• You want to have a more environment-friendly solution.• You want an economical solution.• You want an easy-to-install sanitation solution.• Regular plumbing is too expensive or too difficult.

INSTALLATION IS EASYSanterra Green systems are easy-to-install. Installation is usually performed by the home owner and generally takes a few hours to a day to complete, depending on model and location specifics. All Santerra Green systems come Plug & Play ready to install and help is only a phone call away if required.

PLUG & PLAY

SANITATION SOLUTIONS FOR ALMOST ANYWHEREThere is a Santerra Green model that work in almost any place a sanitation solution is needed even without plumbing. We have models that overcome the most-common obstacles, e.g., no water, no plumbing, on rock, etc. We even have models that flush up when on rock or slab level.

WHY USE A COMPOSTING TOILET

Composting is nature’s method of renewing and preserving itself. In nature, decayed organic material, whether plant or animal, gradually decomposes and becomes either water or enriched soil, very much like your garden compost.

COMPOSTING

Compare the cost of a complete Santerra Green Composting Toilet System to alternatives (septic tanks, holding tanks, etc.) and you will see that it is significantly less expensive.

OUTSIDE AIR/OXYGEN ENTERSAir enters the Santerra Green Composting Unit through louvered Service Panel (flush systems) or Bowl (waterless systems) because of negative pressure present in the unit created by dual fans.

AIR IS HEATEDThe outside air is drawn by the Blower Fan towards back of unit and is forced through the thermostatically controlled Heater (conveniently located in the easy-to-access Works-in-a-Drawer™ Box).

HEATED AIR FORCED DOWNThe heated air is then forced down the Blower Pipe by the powerful Blower Fan to the Tray area in the bottom of the unit.

AUTOMATIC SIX-WAY AERATION™The heated air is then forced back up by the powerful Vent Fan. This creates the patented Sancor Automatic Six-Way Aeration™ process as the heated air travels through all 6 sides of the waste/compost material (bottom, top and four sides) of the specially designed Aeration Basket. This process allows for maximum aeration for rapid evaporation and compost-action.

EVAPORATIONRapid evaporation of liquids occurs as the result of a powerful dual-fan system that exhausts the evaporated liquids up the Venting System until it exits the System completely through the Wind Turbine Ventilator (included with all Systems).

COMPOSTINGThe remaining solid material (85-90%) is left in a warm and well-aerated environment, ideal for composting. Additives (peat moss, Compost Accelerator, our special compost mixes) help the natural microbe-action further to speed up the composting process.

THE PROCESS• match the number to diagram on the right

Santerra Green Systems are the most advanced composting toilet systems available today. A patented Automatic Six-Way Aeration™ process is what differentiates Santerra Green from others. In short, this process speeds up the composting and evaporation process significantly through forced-air, heat and natural microbe-action. And, unlike others, there is no drum to manually turn.

OPERATION IS SIMPLE • ask for more detailsSanterra Green Composting Toilet Systems operate in much the same was a “regular” toilet does. The most important thing is to add some “good bacteria” to assist the natural microbe-action. Add Sancor Daily Mix and Weekly Mix (or peat moss). Then pull the Aerator (top) bar a few times a week. Toilet paper can be used but we recommend using 1-ply toilet tissue.

TIME TO EMPTY • ask for more detailsWhen it comes time to empty your system you simply rake the compost down, open the sealed bottom panel and remove the collection tray. Systems are generally emptied 1-2 times a year at the beginning of each new season (part-time cottage use) or about half-way through the year (full-time use).

It is important that you choose the right system for your application. The choice ultimately comes down to personal preference (see below) in combination with application specific requirements (see page on right). System-wise we keep it simple with the choice of 4 System types.

PREFERENCES

CHOOSE POWER

Non-electric models are the choice when DC or AC power is available. Use a wind turbine. Opt for a power model if possible.

12VDC is the best option if AC power is not available or if you plan to use a solar system. Features 2 fans. Operate in single fan mode to save power.

ALL

Go with an AC electric system if power is available. Feature 2 x 117 CFM fans plus a heater and use 40W most of the time (75%) and 540W max (25%).

The patented Automatic Six-Way Aeration™ process creates a powerful draw of air through the toilet seat area preventing bathroom odor.

COMPARE THISCompare the powerful draw of air in Santerra Green X SERIES systems to other systems by performing a simple test. Place a piece of tissue (or plastic bag) on top of the open seat when the system in powered on. In a Santerra Green System the paper (or bag) will be noticeably pulled down. Dual fans and the unique air-flow design make this possible. Ask to see it on other systems.

Installs easily on bathroom floor

X SERIES systems feature Automatic Six-Way Aeration™ for a faster, more efficient composting process without the need to manually turn a drum. Rapid evaporation means that a drain is not required in the X SERIES AC electric model (MS10).

5-YEAR WARRANTY

5-YEAR WARRANTY ON INTERNAL COMPONENTSAll internal components carry a 5-Year Warranty. This is everything inside the system including all electrical parts (fans, heater, thermostats, wiring). All components are built to last in the harsh environment of a toilet system and are either plastic or stainless steel.

Compare this to others that offer 3 years. Contact Sancor if you require warranty service and support.

Santerra Green Systems have the longest warranty in the composting toilet industry. This includes a comprehensive 5-Year Warranty on all internal components and a Lifetime Warranty on the outer body (or shell) of the system. We are able to offer the longest warranty on the industry because of the confidence we have in our design and materials. Systems are proudly made in North America.

LIFETIME WARRANTY ON OUTER BODYThe outer body of all systems carry a Lifetime Warranty. This includes the toilet/system in X SERIES systems and the remote composting tank in Y SERIES, Z SERIES and V SERIES systems. This means you do not have to worry about damage from the freezing conditions that the system may be exposed to.

Compare this to others that offer only 5 years. Contact Sancor if you require warranty service and support.

FOR THOSE COLD WINTERSSanterra Green systems can be used during winter, cold or freezing conditions if proper winterizing precautions are taken.

BASIC WINTER TIPS• Waterless models (X SERIES & Y SERIES) are easier to winterize as there is less concern with freezing because water is not used to flush. Proper wintering is still required.• Ceramic toilets (Z SERIES & V SERIES) need to be wiped dry to prevent winter damage.• A special Winter Kit (heat cable, insulation, etc.) is available for V SERIES models to ensure entire winter season use.

Ask your dealer or Sancor for complete details about proper winterizing of your system.

WASTEWATER TECHNOLOGY STANDARDCSA ANSI/NSF-41

ELECTRICAL SAFETY STANDARDCSA Electric, Canada and USA

CSA ANSI/NSF-41 EXPLAINEDANSI/NSF-41 is a wastewater technology standard that was created by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) in the United States. It is designed to:

• Test the quality of the system “end-product” (i.e., compost)• Ensure that there is no odor• Test various other product design elements (e.g., product strength, liquid containment, etc.)

As a Canadian company we chose to have our testing, to the exact standard, performed by the well-known and respected Canadian Standards Association (CSA). As a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL), CSA can certify to any other NRTL standards by others including NSF, UL, etc. Our other Electric and Plumbing certifications were also completed by CSA. Visit CSA online at www.csa.ca.

EUROPEAN STANDARDS-Mark Applies to 230VAC Electric models only
