Water closets are prohibited in our village. Additionally habitants have committed to use less harmful washing powders and liquids for laundry. The goal is to use environmentally friendly and ecological washing powders.

According these principles wastewater form the village is quite clean even before any sewage treatment process. Clean water consumption is about 60% smaller than usual average value in urban areas.

We have our own wastewater process. So called grey wastewater (from dish/laundry machines and showers) is collected into septic tanks. After going through three septic tanks waste water is piped into Green Rock’s fibre cleaner and finally into small pond where water may be evaporated into air. When there is lots of water (in spring time) it is overflowing into ditch.

As a result our wastewater is not anymore waste but actually it is cleaner than output water from sewage treatment plants in urban areas.

Every family has solved and constructed their own dry-toilet system. There are many types of toilets and usual solution is asila-type toilet including large container for excreta and urine. Dry-toilet Naturum can be also used on upper floors. Because of quite easy installation it is suitable for old repaired houses when toilet system is changed too.

When urine is separated it is piped into large container which is dug into ground. Urine can be used as a fertilizer in a garden or on a green.

In many toilet solutions also bio waste from the kitchen is composted together with toilet waste. All dry-toilet systems need more care than water closets but time needed for cleaning and emptying is only about 2-3h/month.
