The Excel is ideal for residential use having been tested by NSF with 4 adults using the unit residentially for six months of continual use. In this test, the criteria were that the unit operated odorlessly and produced clean, safe compost. Of course, it did, and the Excel is presently the ONLY self-contained unit in the world to be tested, certified, and listed by NSF.
The Excel is also ideal for cottage use as the primary toilet at your camp or cabin, or for light commercial or workplace use. The 2" vent is attached at the top back of the unit and can be installed invisibly by running it through the wall and up the outside wall. For comfort the Excel has a sturdy detachable footrest which can be removed to pull out the finishing drawer.
Although the Excel can normally evaporate all liquids, a ½" emergency drain is fitted at the rear and this should be connected if the unit is to be used residentially or heavily, or if prolonged power outages are expected.

[...] Has saved me a $5000 septic system. Uses no water, and very little electricity (200 watts.) Composts all human waste and the toilet paper as well.
bought this for a 360sq ft cabin was not possible to put septic in. I believe that this is going to be ok. installing was nothing. did not have to run to town or scramble for anything to install.
I just got the Sun-Mar toilet 2 weeks ago. This is my second composting toilet, first one from this manufacturer. It was missing installation parts, needed @ a important time if you know what I mean. Installation was difficult, and I'm handy. The unit is hard to get up on and use, this thing is NOT for large people
The unit was delivered a few days later than I anticpated, it went very smoothly. The unit was missing installation parts. Customer service from the manufacturer was OK.
