HISTORY
Following his PhD on the topic of human waste management, Geoff Hill founded Toilet Tech Solutions in 2013 in B.C., Canada. TTS moved to Seattle, WA in 2016. Toilet Tech now provides modern solutions throughout North and South America to an industry that has seen little innovation since the 1970s.
Working with Toilet Tech
Each park, forest, and protected area has a unique climate, weather, visitor profile, use, and budget. With Director's Orders banning pit toilets, it can be difficult to envision a transition from old to new. Here are the next steps in the implementation of a highly effective toilet solution with us.
Share Site Info
Tell us about your Park, Forest, or Wilderness Area. We'll ask a lot of questions about the ecology, remoteness, soil, and site usage to help you choose the right toilet solution for your site.
Budget Pricing
We are happy to provide budget price estimates after we have gathered enough information by email, phone calls, or webinars. Included in our budget estimate/proposal are key elements that specify our products and what differentiates them from others, and what our warranty includes.
Implementation
When selected, we offer complete service including shipping, installation, training, support, warranty, and waste management services. We do not offer transportation services from parking lots to remote locations; this must be arranged by the project owner.
Support and Warranty
TTS supports its projects for the lifetime of the facility. Our toilet seats are robust and easily maintained, but they do need service. Luckily, the maintenance is infrequent, and key wear parts can be easily stocked onsite for replacement. We provide expert advice, spare parts in a timely fashion, and maintenance support M-F 9a-5p.
Repair
For non-urgent needs please contact Scott at scott@toilettech.ca with your support needs. Please include a description of your issue, what you have tried, photos, and contact info. We will respond by the next business day. On rare occasions where remote support doesn't solve the problem, we can plan a trip to your site.
Spare Parts
TTS Canada has an inventory of spare parts at our headquarters in Pemberton, BC.

MEDIA RECOGNITION
Inside the Controversial World of Composting Toilets
(Inside Science) -- Big, black wasplike things living in your toilet may sound more like a horror scene than a sanitation solution. That's certainly what people in rural Louisiana thought in the summer of 1930, when black soldier flies infested a set of newly installed privies.

Will Be Transported by This French Composting Toilet
There are a few things that put people off the idea of composting toilets. They are often high, like the Sun-mar designs, or they are low but people can’t deal with the idea that they are sitting a few inches above of a pile of poop, as you do in the Envirolet or Multoa.
