A Few Reasons Why You Should Use A Porta Potty

By Jocelyn Davidson


There are many various reasons why a community or a family would opt for a portable toilet. It can either be for survival reasons during harsh weathers, events or concerts, or along parks and beaches. Most reasons would be because of cramped spaces, installation for a regular toilet is unlikely because of unavailable piping system, and some are even integrated in transportation like RVs and planes.

By now you might wonder how it works. It uses disintegrating and deodorizing chemicals to maintain it. Due to this, disposal should be regulated by both the manufacturer and the local government. In the case of a porta potty Edmonton, they have their own Composting Facility who takes care of this.

Mixed in with little amount of water, Bromine, Formaldehyde, and even Nitrate based chemicals, these are then stored in a tank. Some models also have an indicator for capacity. With this, it must be regularly cleaned and properly disposed. This is where the instructions of the manufacturer and role of rental companies come in.

These rental companies will be the ones maintaining the porta potties and disposing the waste appropriately. They already have guidelines and instructions from the manufacturer and the local government. Aside from the usual, they have various models you can choose from depending on the use. An example would be if it is either for construction sites or events, along with a variation of handwash stations and handicap toilets.

The look of these models are, of course, mimicked with the actual toilets although with a bit of difference. Although it all depends on the model. The huge box is safe and private which gives you more comfort without having to think that you are actually in a public place.

In cases of harsh weathers in Edmonton, temperatures can drop below freezing. Water pipes might be frozen and burst, or electricity would be out, so there is that certain risk. An option would be installing a porta potty when the situation calls for it. But if it is too freezing outside, you can store enough water in the bathtub for flushing. Also, make sure to stock enough toiletries.

This concept was also adapted for huge vehicles like RVs and planes. Inside the toilet in planes, they use a vacuum for flushing. It goes along with the chemicals to compress it to around two percent its original volume. All of these are stored in a tank.

For huge vehicles of RVs, it utilizes a heating and fanning system to evaporate as much water it can to about ninety percent of the total waste material. Leaving only the solid waste, it makes it easier to maintain. This way it can leave more room for storage of the waste before disposal.

The porta potty is beneficial and helpful during these different situations. The mechanism and technology used provides convenience. Although it is also important that companies, manufacturers, local government, and the community, to work together for proper disposal and to maintain a clean environment.
