Helpful Uses Of A Porta Potty And How They Work

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.

There is little water inside the mechanism of the toilet. It is mixed along with chemicals like Formaldehyde, Bromine, and even Nitrate based formula, and then stored into a waste tank. There is usually an indicator for the capacity of waste it can handle, therefore it should be regularly emptied and disposed properly. And here comes the role of the manufacturer and rental companies.

There are various rental companies for these boxed wonders that somehow look like Telephone Booths. They are mostly available in different models for various purposes. Some examples are construction and special event toilets, high rise toilets, and even handicap toilets and handwash stations. These are modelled accordingly for the user, so it is a lot more convenient than you think.

Just like the ordinary toilet at home, it has the same shape of the seat and has a commode. Although these physical aspects change depending on the model of the porta potty. As what has been described before, it has a separate water and chemicals container for flushing while the actual waste tank also has chemicals for deodorizing and also disintegrating.

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.

The functionality of these portable toilets are also integrated in RVs and planes. In planes, most types have vacuum to suck in the waste and store it in their tank along with the chemicals. It is then compressed to roughly 2% of their original size.

In RVs though, some of the later types have a fan and a heating system. This is used in order to evaporate the 90% water which usually composes the human waste. This would be convenient when maintaining the waste tank since there would be little waste left to take out.

Primarily, the mechanism of the porta potty has done a great deal with the relief and convenience of people when they are in places void from regular toilets. They are also integrated in long distance transport to make it even easier. But the main concern is how these type of toilets are maintained.
