The GL Composting Systems are innovative, split-system batch composting toilets designed and manufactured in Australia. The GL systems are distributed in the United States by Waterless Toilet Shop.
The GL systems feature a sleek porcelain dry toilet pedestal, indistinguishable from conventional toilets, installed inside the bathroom. The term “split-system” means that there is an external composting unit directly underneath the bathroom floor level connected to the toilet by a waste pipe. All waste, including toilet paper, simply falls into the external GL composting container under the floor. Therefore, the GL composting toilet systems, like all split-systems, require a certain amount of space under the bathroom floor level.
As a batch composting system, the GL design uses two (or more) composting containers that rotate in use. When one container fills up, it is replaced with an empty one, allowing the full container to complete the composting process outside. By the time the second container is also full, the compost in the first container is ready for use as safe fertilizer for non-edible plants and trees. This efficient and sustainable design ensures continuous use while contributing to environmentally friendly waste management.
Like a regular flush toilet but without the flush
The GL Composting Systems very closely resemble regular flush toilets, with a distinction that they are not flushed. Inside the bathroom, you’ll find a bright white, porcelain dry toilet pedestal that looks and feels just like a conventional toilet. The sleek and modern design ensures that it blends seamlessly into any bathroom décor.
Instead of flushing, waste simply drops directly into the composting unit located beneath the bathroom floor. The use of the toilet is just as straightforward and familiar as any traditional model, meaning no special instructions are needed, making the GL systems ideal not for private family use, but also for settings like a rented cabin (e.g. Airbnb), where various guests might use the toilet. Additionally, the system is robust and durable, ensuring that it can withstand regular use without risk of damage, further enhancing its appeal as one of the most user-friendly and reliable composting toilets on the market today.
The GL Systems are batch composting toilets which means that there are two (or more) composting containers that switch position between being in use and outside composting further.
No smell at all – Totally odorless!
The GL Composting Systems are completely odorless, making them a standout choice for those concerned about unpleasant smells often associated with composting toilets. The key to this odor-free experience lies in the system’s design. The GL composting units feature a double base that effectively separates excess liquids from the solid waste mass, maintaining the compost at an ideal moisture level—not too wet and not too dry—perfect for the natural composting process. This careful balance is crucial in keeping the composting mass almost entirely odorless.
Additionally, the GL systems are equipped with a ventilation system that ensures air flows continuously from the composting unit through a ventilation pipe out into the air. For indoor installations with access to electricity, an electric fan is used to further enhance ventilation, ensuring that any slight odors are swiftly carried outside. This combination of features ensures that the GL systems remain completely odorless, providing a comfortable and hygienic bathroom experience.
The GL system’s composting unit consists of four main parts: the container, double base, open lid and waste shaft
The most important feature of the GL systems is the double base sitting at the bottom of the composting unit
Low-profile Composting Unit
The GL Systems are an excellent choice for many households because they require only 18 inches of clearance below the bathroom floor level to install the external composting unit. This low-profile design makes the GL systems versatile and accessible, fitting into spaces where other split-systems might not.
However, if there’s even a slight possibility of creating that 18 inches of space, it’s definitely worth the effort. Split-systems like the GL are renowned for being as close to regular toilets as composting toilets can be, offering a familiar bathroom experience.
Additionally, if you have more than 18 inches of space available, you might want to have a look at the other split systems we have as well that require more clearance but offer larger capacity and even longer service intervals.
GL 90 Model
The GL 90 model is the larger option in the GL Composting Systems lineup. The basic package includes two containers, each having a capacity of 24 gallons. This model is ideal for one or two people using the system full-time, year-round, or for a family using it seasonally, such as in a holiday home or cabin. When considering the system’s capacity, it’s important to note that only solid waste—poop, toilet paper, and some dry material—contributes to filling the container. Excess liquids are efficiently drained from the composting unit, so the container’s capacity is based on solid waste accumulation only.
Please note that providing an exact number of uses before the system needs servicing is challenging due to various factors like individual habits, climate, and more. However, the GL 90 is generally well-suited for the scenarios mentioned above. The composting containers are 24 inches wide and 18 inches high, with a waste shaft that can be extended up to 22 inches above the container. This adjustability ensures that the system can fit beneath various bathroom floor levels.

CF 8 Composting Toilet – Estimated Daily Capacity
The CF 8 is a continuous composting toilet system featuring a single large 250-gallon container. Like the CF 4, it is designed for gradual emptying rather than batch-style use. Solids are typically removed in thirds or sections, allowing earlier deposits time to fully compost inside the tank.
This setup allows for either:
Year-round use with gradual emptying, or
Seasonal use (e.g., 4–5 months/year) with full emptying once per year
🔁 Continuous Use: Gradual Emptying in Thirds
When used year-round, the CF 8 is typically emptied one-third at a time, effectively composting in three rotating “piles” within the container.
Because the CF 8 is more than twice as large as the CF 4, each pile can hold approximately 480–960 poops, depending on composting conditions and how much bulking material is used.
Service Interval (per pile)
Estimated #2 Visits per Day
30 days (1 month)
~17–32 visits/day
60 days (2 months)
~8–16 visits/day
90 days (3 months)
~5–11 visits/day
180 days (6 months)
~3–5 visits/day
365 days (1 year)
~1.2–2.6 visits/day
💡 These figures assume that one-third of the tank is in active use at a time, with older waste given time to compost before removal.
🌤 Seasonal Use: Full-Tank Emptying After Inactive Period
For cabins, cottages, or other sites used seasonally, the CF 8 can be used for a few months and then left idle to allow full composting. In such cases, the entire tank may be emptied once a year.
Full-tank capacity estimate: ~1,440–2,880 poops
Example: 120 days of use (approx. 4 months): → ~12–24 solid visits per day on average
⚠️ Disclaimer
These numbers are rough estimates based on typical use and conditions. Actual capacity will vary depending on:
Climate (temperature and humidity)
Ventilation and air flow
How much dry bulking material is added
User behavior and emptying practices
For best performance, ensure proper aeration, regular bulking material use, and consistent emptying of composted portions.
💡 Want to Maximize Capacity? Consider a Urine-Diverting Toilet — With Some Important Considerations
If you’re looking to maximize the capacity of the CF 8 system — aiming for 960+ poops per composting “pile” — we recommend using aurine-diverting (UD) toilet pedestal.
✅ Benefits of Urine Separation:
Reduces or eliminates the need for dry bulking material, which frees up valuable space in the composting unit
Helps keep the compost drier, more aerated, and better suited for natural decomposition
Increases the total capacity of the composting container
Can lead to faster and more efficient composting, especially in high-use environments
By diverting urine out of the solids container, the volume taken up by absorbent material (like peat or wood shavings) is significantly reduced. This can make a big difference in how often the system needs to be emptied.
⚠️ Downsides to Consider:
Urine-diverting toilets can take some time to get used to. Users need to sit or aim correctly to ensure proper separation, which might not happen consistently without experience or guidance.
For this reason, UD toilets are generally not ideal for public or commercial settings where the toilet is used by guests, tourists, or other first-time users. In these cases, misuse can reduce the effectiveness of the system and may even lead to unpleasant maintenance issues.
In short: A UD toilet is an excellent choice for maximizing capacity in private or family use, but for guest or public access composting toilets, a standard non-diverting model may be more practical and user-friendly.

Green Toilet 100 Easy – Estimated Daily Capacity
The Green Toilet 100 Easyis a compact and user-friendly batch composting toilet with a 26-gallon composting container. Its design makes it well-suited for outhouses, cabins, and even indoor use. A spare containeris available to expand capacity and simplify servicing.
Note: Due to the shape and internal structure of the container, the actual composting capacity is slightly lower than its raw volume might suggest, if you compare with Green Toilet 120 Family composting toilet for example.
📆 Average Daily Capacity per Bin
Service Interval
Estimated #2 Visits per Day
30 days (1 month)

180 days (6 months)
~1.1 visits/day
365 days (1 year)
~0.5 visits/day
Notes & Recommendations:
For seasonal or weekend use, one container often lasts a full summer.
For more frequent use, we recommend the package with a spare container. This allows one bin to rest and compost while the other is in active use.
Don’t forget to add dry bulking material (like wood shavings or peat) regularly to maintain airflow and prevent odors.

CF 4 Composting Toilet – Estimated Daily Capacity
The CF 4 is a continuous composting toilet system featuring a single large 105-gallon container. Unlike batch composting systems (such as the Green Toilet models), the CF 4 is designed for gradual emptying — solids are typically removed in thirds or sections, allowing earlier deposits time to fully compost inside the tank.
This setup allows for either:
Year-round use with gradual emptying, or
Seasonal use (e.g. 4–5 months/year) with full emptying once per year
🔁 Continuous Use: Gradual Emptying in Thirds
When used year-round, the CF 4 is typically emptied one-third at a time, effectively composting in three rotating “piles” within the container. Depending on composting conditions and how much bulking material is used, each pile can hold approximately 200–400 poops.
Service Interval (per pile)

💧 Liquid waste (urine) estimate
Average person produces about:
0.4 gallons of urine per day (≈1.5 liters ≈ 1.6 quarts)
So for 100 people:
0.4 gallons × 100 = 40 gallons of urine per day
🚽 Flush water use estimate
Average flush volume in the U.S. is about:
1.5 gallons per flush
Average person flushes ~5 times per day, so:
1.5 gallons × 5 = 7.5 gallons/person/day
So for 100 people:
7.5 gallons × 100 = 750 gallons of flush water per day
