Question Thread for Peter Andersson, President of BioLet USA  

post #1 of 12
Thread Starter 

Here at Huddler, we've had some conversation about waterless toilets.  BioLet offers a line of composting toilets from non-electric models to deluxe models...that use no water. This week, you've got a chance to ask Peter Andersson, President of BioLet USA, all your composting toilet questions.

 

A little bit more about BioLet...

 

While our water bills keep increasing each year and the cost of maintaining septic systems rockets skyward, BioLet's line of waterless composting toilets offer a solution that is environmentally friendly and saves the green in your wallet. Nature and technology combine to make BioLet composting toilets as effective and easy to use as a traditional flush toilet. 

 

A big thanks goes out to Marshal-Green for suggesting this interview!

 

Things to remember:

  • Make sure to submit only 1 question per post (but feel free to ask as many questions as you like)
  • Check back to vote on the questions you'd most like to have answered by Peter (use the "Rate Post" thumb up to vote)

 

Next week, we'll send the 10 best questions over to Peter and post his answers ASAP.

 

Check out the Interview Guidelines for a bit more help if you need it. Good luck - may the best questions win!

Different experts have argued whether or not "humanure" should be used with foods that are handled/eaten directly (like lettuce, etc.) vs. only as mulch for fruit trees, or non-edible plants. What guidance do you give your customers in this regard?
