Get a Pee...zza This Hut

12 August 2016 | Updated 01 January 1970
 

Sanilfo UK and The English Shepherd Hut Co are now collaborating to produce portable units that are most suited to festivals, weddings and campsites but can also be put to use as temporary or home offices - and of course, temporary loos.

They are made from wood and corrugated iron and offer modern conveniences.

The real differentiator between Shepherd Huts and most other portable accommodation is that these units offer running water for all cooking and bathing needs and even toilets that flush rather than the chemical variety.

The Poachers Hut, for example, features all mod cons including bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchens and seating space thanks to ingenious interior design that maximises every inch of available space. The hut has a Sanicompact with integrated macerator, an ideal WC for compact spaces where mains drainage is unavailable. The Sanicompact has an automatic push-button flush connected directly to a water supply and needs no cistern.

It also features a wash basin inlet so grey waste water can also be processed through the macerator if required. Waste is discharged via 32mm pipework either to a storage tank or to the nearest mains.

The Aquarius – a posh, portable toilet block provides upmarket showering and WC facilities and is available for hire or sale and features Saniflo’s Saniwall allowing for modern, wall hung sanitaryware to be specified. The Saniwall is a built-in frame system with an integrated dual flush cistern and macerator pump. With two extra side inlets it can take waste from wash basin and a shower as well as the WC.
