Hi.
We only stay in our camper in the summer time.
We would like to have a septic tank for a one bed room put in.
We have the room and the down ward place to put it and also are able to put a regular house stool in the bathroom. You know the kind that you have at home.
Has anyone ever done this?
Thanks
Tony.

Installing the toilet is no problem, venting the toilet may be. What may be a bigger issue it getting a permit for a septic tank. Many locations will only allow septic for "permanent" dwellings unless you are in an RV facility. In addition, almost all locations will require a permit which will require a perc test or a soil engineering test.
