Usage

Are Thetford Separation Toilets expensive?

Compared to competition Thetford offers more value for money. The complete Thetford Separation toilet (S220 or S260) has an RRP of € 850 and the Thetford Separation Kit (SK220 or SK260) has a RRP of € 599.

Do I need water to flush or to clean the bowl?

No, the Separation Toilet does not require any water to operate. Our Thetford Toilet Bowl Cleaner is water-free and perfect for off-grid use.

How do I dispose of the waste of a separation toilet?

Urine can simply be poured into any regular toilet.

Solid waste can be disposed of with regular household waste (always check local regulations to be sure).

By adding a drying agent, liquids are absorbed and you’re left with much drier, easier-to-handle waste. The Separation Toilet Waste Bags are made from recycled plastic and produced using the strongest material available, so they safely contain the waste when closed correctly and prevent leaks or unpleasant odours.

Of course, local regulations decide what’s allowed. But thanks to the Separation Toilet Drying Agent and our extra-strong Waste Bags, disposing of your waste is a clean, simple and worry-free process.

What is included in the Separation Kit?

The full kit includes a urine tank, a leak-free connection to the urine tank, solid waste container, and a complete toilet bowl (both inner and outer ) – custom-fit for the C220 or C260 cassette toilets.

Which toilets are compatible with the Thetford Separation Kit?

The kit is designed for Thetford C220 and C260 cassette toilets.

Why switch to a separation toilet?

If you travel off-grid often or don’t want to use flush water or chemicals, this system offers comfort, hygiene, and flexibility. The system does not require water to operate and consumables are optional.

What is a separation toilet?

A separation toilet is a type of dry (non-flush) toilet that separates solid and liquid waste at the source. It’s an increasingly popular choice among campers, vanlifers and off-grid enthusiasts who are looking for a waterless and believe a separation toilet is a more environment conscious alternative to traditional cassette toilets.

Cleaning and maintenance

Why do I need to use separation toilet-specific products?

Our products are tailored for separation systems, and clean and maintain the toilet without affecting the toilet’s components.

My separation toilet smells. What can I do?

Use Thetford Separation Toilet Urine Tank Fresh and Thetford Separation Toilet Drying Agent for daily odour control. For extra odour control, add the optional ventilator kit. Regularly clear your toilet bowl with Thetford Separation Toilet Bowl Cleaner.

Troubleshooting

Can I install the Separation Kit myself?

Yes, the kit has been designed for DIY enthusiasts and is easy to install.
