Ecolet™ 240 Range – Models Automatic 25a & 65a

Adding Bulking Agent

There are two ways you can approach bulking agent additions.

EITHER:

• Weekly top-up: Add WCT | Eco Mix 40 weekly, bringing the mass up to 10cm under the top mixer arm.
  OR
• Scoop-per-poop: Add a small handful/scoop after each solid deposit. 

Important!

WCTNZ® cannot guarantee the operation of your unit unless you are using approved WCTNZ® Bulking Agent and Microbe mixtures (WCT | Eco Mix 40, and where applicable, WCTNZ® microbe products).

Adding Microbes

Use WCTNZ® | Microbiota MicrobeBURST™ as per the instructions on the pack. Microbes should ne added prior to topping up with bulking agent.

Moisture Checks

Too wet? Liquid rising in the unit’s left-side sight glass—raise heat one step and add a few litres of WCT | Eco Mix 40.

Too dry? Lumps or paper not blending—turn heat down/off briefly and mist ~0.5 L water over the surface; resume normal setting. 

Emptying

Tray Removal Timeframe: Let the compost finish in the unit; try to retain the compost in the drying tray for 1 month before removal. Before opening, increase heat to setting 3 for 24 hours to evaporate free liquid. If compost mass is higher than top mixing arm, then the drying tray needs emptying.

Cleaning

Use a compost-safe cleaner to wipe down the seat and housing as part of your weekly clean. We recommend Nature Flush Enzymes. The drying tray does not need to be cleaned regularly as residual compost material is beneficial to ongoing composting, but you may wish to clean this on a rare occasion.

Electrical Servicing

In the event that electrical servicing is required for fans, heaters, or motors, this must be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Ecolet™ Separera Mini (UD-S and UD-C)

Adding Bulking Agent

Scoop-per-poop: Add a small handful/scoop into the solids chamber after each solid deposit. 

Keeping the Urinal Fresh

Spray Nature Flush Enzymes (a universal cleaner and treater for compost) on the urinal after each use to ensure cleanliness and prevent buildup of salts.

Cleaning

Use a compost-safe cleaner to wipe down the seat and housing as part of your weekly clean. We recommend Nature Flush Enzymes. Pay extra attention to the urinal. The solids chamber does not need to be cleaned regularly as residual compost material is beneficial to ongoing composting, but you may wish to clean this on a rare occasion.

Annual Maintenance

Check that your fan is working and that the ventilation line is free of any obstructions.

Decalcify the urine pipeline and urinal using a mix of Nature Flush Enzymes Concentrate and white vinegar. Apply to the urinal, leave to dissolve, then flush with warm water.
