    Different Types of Toilets

    1. Pour Flush Toilet

    A Pour Flush Toilet is like a regular Flush Toilet except that instead of the water coming
    from the cistern above, it is poured in by the user. When the water supply is not
    continuous, any cistern Flush Toilet can become a Pour Flush Toilet.

    2. Pit Toilet

    Pit toilets (also referred to as latrines) are a sanitation technology used for onsite waste
    management. They consist of a hole in the ground, which may be unlined or lined, with a
    reinforcing material to contain human excreta. Depending on its design and frequency of
    use, pit toilets can be used for 10 to 30 years, though many are used for fewer than 5
    years before they are full and must be emptied or covered.

    A type of toilet without a water-sealed bowl and the depository is constructed usually of
    large circular tubes made of concrete or clay covered on top and has a small opening. It
    may or may not have a box for sitting or squatting over the opening.

    3. Pit Latrine

    A pit latrine, or long drop, is a type of toilet that collects human feces in a hole in the
    ground. Urine and feces enter the pit through a drop hole in the floor, which might be
    connected to a toilet seat or squatting pan for user comfort.[2] Pit latrines can be built to
    function without water (dry toilet) or they can have a water seal (pour-flush pit latrine).

    water closet which gives more comfort and also gives more health complaint. It is proven
    that squatting pan toilets are much healthier than European water closet. The squatting
    pan called in many names as Indian pan, Orissa pan and also Asian pan toilet. These
    squatting pans have several designs and varying design country to country. Squatting pan
    normally used in Asian countries. https://sanitaryware.org/types-of-toilets-different-type-

    6. Pail System

    A pail closet or pail privy was a room used for the disposal of human excreta, under the
    "pail system" (or Rochdale system) of waste removal. The "closet" (a word which had
    long had one meaning as "toilet") was a small outhouse (privy) which contained a seat,
    underneath which a portable receptacle was placed.

    Classified as toilet wherein fecal matter is accumulated in a pail to be picked up for


    disposal from time to time, or any kind of toilet facility not belonging to the preceding
    types. http://nap.psa.gov.ph/ru11/glossary/population/TF.htm ﾧ

    7. Water-sealed, Sewer/Septic Tank, Used Exclusively by the Household

    Water-sealed is the type of toilet where after water is flushed or poured into the bowl, a
    small amount of water is left in the bowl and seals the bottom of the bowl from the pipe
    leading to the depository. A sewer/septic tank is a tank in which the solid matter or
    sewage is accumulated to be disintegrated by bacteria. This is commonly called "poso
    negro". http://nap.psa.gov.ph/ru11/glossary/population/TF.htm ﾧ
