With semi-regular use (let's say 4 days a week out of 5) how often should I empty the urine bottle as to minimize encountering odors while emptying?

If you are using the toilet as often as that then you will probably need to empty the urine container once or twice per week not because of smell but because it will be full. Obviously this depends on how many people are using it! 4 people for a weekend can get it pretty full.

We've been using ours for over a month, and today was the first time. There were 3-4 small pieces of feces that fell through the scoop. I fished them out with the old litter scoop, and problem solved. We've run it roughly 4 times a day for 35 days...140 times with no smell. Once in a blue moon it'll happen, I can live with that. -I just turned on the exhaust fan and closed the door.

as directed on back of bottle, probably drink then drink an amount of water urinate 3 times then your good, but personally other products from this company have not worked for me so beware, if you have alot to loose dont do it. its not written on bottle if you use illicit drugs this product will get rid of it for a satisfactory clean on a drug test.

I leave mine on all the time. Now if u want just to get rid of a smell then I would say maybe a couple of hours. L love my Prozone

that depends how long you use a day... for example, I only used at the shower, and thats takes 1 month to empty.. but if I use in my bedroom that takes 4 days to empty...

The smell does go away. I use this cup sporadically, maybe 1-2 times per week and it went away after maybe 3-4 months. With daily use it will likely be less.

I don't believe there's any limit to how often you can use it; you can use it every day if you like. However I think once a week may be okay. I usually leave it on till I get sick of it; but generally I'd say half an hour would be sufficient.

I fill mine about once a month. But, I am not a high user and I don't wait for it to go completely empty.

Hi Christopher,That is up to you. The bio spray is to eliminate odors in the container so you don't need to empty it every day. Thanks, EZDogFences

If you are talking about how it lasts in your system, then I'd say that it seems to last/work throughout the 24-hour period. When I am taking the vitamins, the urine has a bright yellow color and slight vitamin smell (I'm a faithful water drinker) until I take the next dose 24 hours later. When I miss a day or stop taking the vitamins, this doesn't happen. My energy level is also pretty stable throughout the day.

Not sure. But on another note, any poop smell you deal with should leave after 2 or 3 applications. Urine is a sharper odor to tackle. Good luck...

I have had mine for more than a month and have been using it everyday. I still probably have at least a quarter of the bottle left

I'm not sure it would matter too much but I happened to do it in the morning, just after we scrubbed her feet with antibacterial soap and before she put on her socks and shoes. We've only gone 2 weeks with no odor but seeing as we couldn't ever shake the stink before, I still highly recommend it!

I found that once a week seemed to be enough. That was for a good scrubbing not a brief rinse. Every day is a bit over the top.

I am a 60 year old woman also, and I am the primary caretaker of our toilet. Emptying the urine bottle isn't hard. I rinse mine briefly with the hose afterwards. Emptying the solid waste tank can be hard. It is quite heavy when full, and you need to be able to turn it upside down into a trash bag to empty it out. But I manage usually all by myself, and it doesn't need emptying very often. I think I empty ours 2-3x per year for our toilet that is used on weekends by 2 people about 2x / month. The floor needs a good scrubbing after that, because somehow, no matter how hard I try, some of the used peat escapes. Then, of course you have to refill it with clean moist peat. That isn't hard, but it is kind of messy. I clean the bowl frequently with bathroom cleaning wipes(don't toss those inside). Not much else to do. I would say you need to be involved with your toilet, but for me, it isn't so hard or so awful that I want to kick it. Congratulations on your tiny house.

Horizon recommended 1/2 a bottle every six months, I was using my treadmill everyday minimum 30 minutes up to 2 hours. Hope this helped.

It would you would just need to empty it much more frequently ... I get maybe 4/5 days worth of infant diapers between changes if I roll the diapers up tightly before throwing them away
