Incinerating Toilet Location Considerations

• Location suitable for using a toilet, such as privacy
  
  Note: the toilet installation illustrated in this article is in a bathroom in a building that is not connected to an external water supply and where no septic system was available. The bathroom provides privacy for toilet users.
  
  Watch out: building users should be prepared for and accept that during an incineration cycle, the toilet's power vent will make make a whirring sound that can go on for an hour or longer. If installed just outside of a bedroom, some may not enjoy that noise.
• Location where outdoor combustion air is available
  
  either by direct inlet for the Cinderella Classic (electric) and Freedom (gas) models, or where you can route the toilet's dedicated air inlet to an outdoor air source for the Cinderella Comfort (electric) model.
  
  The toilet does not need to be installed in a room with an exterior wall, but if not, there must be a supply of exterior air to support the incinerating toilet's combustion process.
• Location must provide a sound and level floor
• Location that provides sufficient clearance
  
  for sufficient chimney height to provide draft assist to the vent system (no bends allowed in chimney vent for the gas model).
• Location where 120V or 240VAC electrical circuit is available
  
  for the Classic or Comfort electric incinerator toilets or where you can provide 12VDC for the gas model.
  
  A 10A 120v/240V (depending on model) electrical receptacle must be provided for the Cinderella Classic and Comfort (electric) models while the Freedom (Gas) model toilet will require a 12V electrical power supply.
  
  Watch out: plan the location of both the toilet and its wall receptacle so that the toilet doesn't block access to the receptacle itself or you either won't be able to plug it in or you may be forced to place the toilet further from the building wall than you wish.

Provide Electrical Connection for the Cinderella Toilet

Electrically powered incinerating toilets might be provided in either 120VAC or 240VAC models, powering both the incinerator itself and the toilet's exhaust fan; gas powered incinerating Cinderella toilets will require a 12VDC (low voltage direct current for gas power) circuit to power the toilet exhaust fan. Here we installed a 240VAC receptacle on a dedicated circuit for this toilet.

Above in the center of the photograph you can see the electrical receptacle. The toilet itself requires a 10 Amp (2000 Watts) circuit. Often specialized 240VAC circuits wired in new construction will use wiring that can safely support 15A or 20A 240VAC.

Even though the toilet only draws 10A and even though a 15A electrical circuit can be and is normally wired with #14 copper wire, it's safe to use a larger gauge wire as long as all of the electrical connections can be made properly. (A too-large wire won't fit in some electrical connectors.)

The original construction in this building had provided an unused #10 copper wire circuit that we used to power the toilet's receptacle, connected from a 15A circuit breaker and routed to the single 240V receptacle shown in our photo.

Also shown above at the right side of our photo and again below are views of the wall rough-in opening for the Cinderella toilet's through-wall piping that will provide the combustion air inlet and combustion exhaust outlet.

Below: we've excerpted from Eaton's instructions for this receptacle to show how we wired it for a 240V circuit for this Cinderella Comfort incinerating toilet hook-up.

Below: most of the nail plates to protect electrical wiring in this wall have been installed including for wires that pass in the wall above the rough-in opening left for routing the toilet air inlet and exhaust vent pipes.

Watch out: if you are not trained in proper and safe electrical wiring, hire someone who is qualified: you could be shocked or killed or could set the building on fire.

Watch out: the company warns that this toilet can draw 2000W for extended periods of time during an incineration cycle.

Therefore you should not try to power the toilet through a power converter, nor through a solar or battery powered electrical system. If your building does not have access to sufficient electrical power, you should consider ordering the Cinderella GAS toilet model.
