The multi-award winning Nature Loo Alectura is a waterless composting toilet, specially designed for tiny homes, with a low underfloor clearance requirement of only 49cm.

The toilet system is easy to install and is free of odours, chemicals, plumbing, high maintenance and high electrical costs. It uses a natural aerobic process involving microorganisms, aka microbes, to break down waste into nutrient-rich compost. Microbes require a minimum temperature of 12°C, moisture content of about 60%, oxygen and a 25:1 carbon-nitrogen diet.

The Alectura’s features help to achieve optimal composting conditions. The double walls and fan promote airflow, bringing oxygen to the microbes, reducing build up of moisture and drawing away odours. Excess liquids are drained through the false floor to an underground leachate drain through a sullage hose. To optimise the moisture level, wicks on the false floor reabsorb drained liquids back into the compost pile. To operate, all it needs is some bulking agent, microbes and enzymes.

The Alectura is available in different packages for every need and budget. The standard package comes with two chambers, suitable for a couple or small family. When one chamber is filled, it is swapped with the other and set aside to finish composting. Extra chambers can be purchased as required. It also includes a porcelain pedestal that can fit into any style of home, an extendable waste chute, a 12V fan, and a consumable starter kit.

The Premium package comes with built-in chambers mixers to easily flatten the pile, accelerate the composting process and maximise the usable space. It also includes an Ezylift trolley to effortlessly lift and transport the chambers.

The toilet system is built to last and comes with a 10 year warranty. It has been tested and certified to Australian and New Zealand Standards 1546.2 for waterless composting toilets.
