Easy Installation Process:
Altersoft and its distributors are able to meet customer requirements from simply supplying the toilet facility directly to the site or depot or they can offer a full supply and installation service for the IPtoilet® facilities. These services can include the following:
Site Plans:
Altersoft can provide site plans for the location of the toilet facility including the relationship to boundaries, roads and the position of services. This plan can be incorporated as part of the building consent information for the particular site.
Building Consent Details:
Altersoft will normally provide a set of building consent drawings which includes floor plans, elevations, sections, foundations and services plans along with engineering calculations and producer statements for the structure.
Site Works:
Once consent is approved, Altersoft will normally be able to undertake all the site works including securing the site with security fencing and arranging the site clearance and excavation of the surface.
Foundation:
Altersoft will excavate the foundations, place the formwork and reinforcing steel and pour the foundations prior to the delivery of the unit.
Service Installation:
Altersoft will normally arrange for subcontractors to run all the service connections from the various service supply or discharge points through to the point where the toilet will be located and terminate them just short of the facility.
Transport and Craneage:
Altersoft will normally arrange for the toilet unit to be transported to the site and for a suitable sized crane to be available to lift the toilet unit into its final position ensuring that it is plumb and level while the crane is on site.
Toilet Installation:
Once the toilet is down on the foundations, it can be secured to the foundations as required. Great care has to be taken to ensure that the foundations are at the correct level to allow the paving to fall away from the entrance eliminating ponding or flooding inside the cubicle. The gradient of any paving to the unit is of critical importance for disabled users.
Connection of Services:
Once the toilet unit is in position, Altersoft will trench back under the unit to connect the services from the service hole in the service area through to the services just outside the toilet unit. It is important that there are no stub ups of services in position prior to the unit's arrival because it is impossible to get these to align correctly with the facility. It is more important that the services are only connected to the toilet unit once the toilet is in position on its foundations.
Paving:
Altersoft will normally provide and install the paving around the toilet facility to match in with the surrounding environment as required by the designers.
Landscaping
Altersoft and its distributors would not normally become involved in extensive landscaping but minor grass planting and other site work like seats, drinking fountains, shelters and planters can be incorporated into the work required.
Commissioning
Altersoft will normally send an experienced representative to the site once all services are connected and operational to commission the toilet unit and hand it over to the customer.
Ongoing Support:
Altersoft and their distributors will provide comprehensive ongoing support to the owner and can offer a range of different levels of service as required to ensure that the product remains in good condition over the life cycle.
Daily Cleaning & ISV:
Without proper maintenance, public toilets are useless and a health hazard to the public. Intelligent Service Vehicle (ISV) which maintains a cluster of IPtoilet® units installed in and around a city or municipality. It has uniformed service person, pressure cleaning facility, mobile incinerator and service parts required for the maintenance and daily cleaning of installed IPtoilet®s. It just takes 5 to 10 minutes to clean one IPtoilet®.
Eco Compositing Biomembrane Treatment:
For remote locations, or sites with no sewerage or acute water conservation needs, then Altersoft can help with an Eco Composting Public Toilet solution, a biomembrane tank. Bio-membrane tanks can separate fecal matter into bio-waste and grey water that is completely odorless. Biomembrine tank is specially treated bacteria driven environmentally effective grey water treatment system which decomposes bio-waste into gas and odorless clean water.

Remote Monitoring:
