Big Green: Septic system alternatives

[Ralph Bicknese]

Jennifer:

 

I have no experience with the Dri-Let toilet system.  However this does
raise a related issue that we have been struggling with.  What are green
recommendations for replacing a conventional septic system?  

 

As much as I like them, a living machine is probably not an option in this
case due mostly to cost. Residential septic systems are typically installed
for $10-15k so costs would need to be relatively comparable. We have also
heard of "drip irrigation" systems but I have no experience with them.

 

Cheers,

Ralph Bicknese

Does anyone have experience with the Dri-Let toilet systems?  They're
billing themselves as an environmentally friendly self-contained, compact,
portable, electric powered toilet system that processes waste into a fine
ash.  I'd love to hear your reviews of the product, if any of you have used
it.  http://www.DriLet-America.com
