What is Composting?
Composting converts organic matter back to its essential minerals. Aerobic microbes do this in the presence of moisture and air, by converting carbon to carbon dioxide gas, and hydrogen to water vapor. As a result, some 95% of the starting material is evaporated and the resulting compost is recycled back to nature.

Self-Contained vs. Central Units
3 Easy Steps to determine
Which model is right for me?
Step 1: Sel-Contained vs. Central Units

Main Features:
- Quick and easy to install
- Waterless – no plumbing required
- Electrical units can evaporate all liquids under normal conditions

Central units have a conventional looking toilet in the bathroom and a separate composting unit. They are available in two styles – low water flush and A/F waterless.
Low water style systems:

Step 2: Electric vs. Non-Electric

Step 3: Capacity
Select a toilet based on the right capacity for your needs. Although advertised capacities can be doubled for short periods, selecting a toilet with the maximum number of users in mind in recommended. Sun-Mar offers units with capacities ranging from 1 adult to 6 adults (or a family of 8).

Composting the SUN-MAR way
Keep the compost moist and oxygenated.
This means rotating the drum regularly to add oxygen, and adding water when the compost gets dry.
Aim for the right carbon/nitrogen ratio.
Adding a mixture of kitchen and regular yard waste is effective, but for better, faster results, add carbon-rich material (browns) like sawdust, straw, dry leaves, or wood chips. These balance the nitrogen-rich green material and kitchen waste. Chop up the waste if possible: the smaller it is, the faster the breakdown process.
Keep the compost warm.
This is not usually a concern because the compost in the drum and the drum’s insulating properties keep the heat in. If you use only kitchen waste, you may need to add bulking material or pre-composted material to help with oxygen penetration as the drum rotates.
