The Compact is an elegant low profile unit with the looks to complement any bathroom. Sun-Mar engineers designed this low profile toilet by developing and patenting a new variable diameter Bio-drum which is small at the front and large at the rear. To maintain the uninterrupted lines of the Compact, a patented Bio-drum handle recesses into the body of the unit to mix and aerate the compost. The Compact differs from the Excel in that all three chambers are smaller, which makes the Compact ideally suited to light residential or light to medium cottage use. As with the Excel, a 2" vent stack attaches to the rear of the Compact. A 1/2" emergency drain at the rear offers protection against heavy or residential use, or prolonged power outage.

WHY CHOOSE A SUN-MAR TOILET Sun-Mar toilets are the ultimate waste treatment solution Easily installed anywhere without the need for any plumbing connections, Sun-Mar toilets surpass traditional systems when it comes to protecting public health and the environment. When deciding which treatment solution is best for you it is very important to understand how various systems compare. Most waste treatment systems rely on bacteria to breakdown organic waste. This process is known as composting. Traditional systems typically rely on a type of bacteria that survives in the absence of oxygen, anaerobic bacteria, which work slowly at breaking down waste and produce very foul odors (sewer gases). Sun-Mar units are engineered to support a type of bacteria that requires oxygen to survive, aerobic bacteria, which work quickly at breaking down waste and produce no odor. This allows Sun-Mar units to be much smaller and more cost effective than traditional systems. Whether the treatment system supports aerobic or anaerobic bacteria, it is extremely important to choose a system which fully composts waste to protect public health and safety. Quite often companies will use the term "composting" to describe their systems, although they do not "fully compost" waste. This is particularly true of urine separating toilets which merely collect waste or provide only partial treatment. These systems leave the homeowners with the daunting task of regularly having to dispose of raw solid and liquid waste. Fully composting waste is very important for public health & safety and the environment. This is why comprehensive evaluation and certification by NSF International, a Public Health and Safety Organization, is crucial. It ensures products perform as claimed and meet strict public health standards for design and performance. Although ANSI/NSF standard 41 has been around for over 25 years, Sun-Mar is one of only 2 companies certified and listed by NSF international. Many regulators require this certification.
