There's so many to choose from, but which is the best composting toilet? In this vlog, we'll show you how to install a composting toilet on a narrowboat without the need for drilling ventilation holes in the steelwork, and how a composting toilet works.
We've had a cassette toilet, a pump-out, and we think incinerating toilets (Cinderella toilets) are way too expensive and wasteful with energy, so we've been hunting down the best composting toilet for narrowboat Silver Fox.
In this episode, we'll answer just what is a composting toilet, show you how to disconnect and remove our Thetford C260 Cassette Toilet and install our brand new Compost Toilet from Compoost Toilets in the UK, and a review of our composting toilet.
You can check out our new composting toilet at Compoost's website:

Thank you - that is the first serious alternative to a combustion toilet, and presented with your customary professionalism. Wanting 'no-gas' on board meant I needed to factor-in a larger battery capacity, to power the combustion burner, this Compooster loo eliminates that need - and has done away with the 'cranky' manual stirring handle. It also looks really cool (obviously cool as it's not combustion). My worry had been explaining that handle to my grandsons when they visit - this is press button, no handle and superb for all ages. Thanks again - it's a load off my .......!

This is, by far, the best composting toilet video I’ve seen. I’m plan to share it to several tiny house Facebook channels. I would suggest diluting the wee in a bucket of canal water to avoid nitrogen burn . . . . Fantastic you have a storage space for the bag of fresh compost in the “cassette” cabinet.

We had our boat on a large lake in BC. We had 8 persons on the boat 4 adults & 4 children. My brother-in-law and I would take turns emptying the toilet which we each dreaded our turn. The boat was a 38’ , 14 ton ocean going boat and we had to anchor off shore then load the cassette into a little aluminum row boat and take it to shore to dump it in a campground toilet. We called the procedure not ship to shore but shit to shore. It was was brother-in-laws turn and he rowed into shore a fair ways with the goods. We waited and waited but no Rob, finally after about an hour we saw him rowing back. We asked him what took so long . He said he went into the campground toilet and took the cap of the cassette and the cassette slipped out of his hand onto the floor and then it proceeded to empty the goods, glug, glug,glug just as the ranger came in the door to do a check. The ranger said I guess you will need a shovel, mop, & hose. We certainly know the issues with cassettes especially my brother in law. Cheers Ellis

These guys are fantastic! I have never even considered or thought to acknowledge the existence of boat living, especially here in UK, how have I not known anything about this so far? And now I'm thinking about how amazing it'd be if I could do this at some point in decades to come. I'm watching back from episode 1! It seems like such like it's own loved community and I love it! I only stumbled across these narrow boating channels last night too!

I love how it's not just "We have bought a boat again and this is how it looks" too, it's a full journey from the get go, showing how far the boat has come and all the intricacies of the journey up until now

You two are adorable... Great video and you've answered some of the questions I had about composting toilets. I'm working on fitting out an RV for the road and hoping to be able to boondock off grid. That means eliminating all unnecessary water usage - so a flush toilet is out. Composting is the way to go but I have family members who would rather risk going in the woods than using a composting toilet. Sigh... I hope after I share this video with them, they'll feel much better about using one.
