Porta Potti 365 Toilet

G'day Beate,

The short answer is yes, you'll need to use something in the waste tank to breakdown the waste, otherwise, you're really just carrying around an expensive toilet when you could just be carrying a bucket with a seat. The Porta Potti's are designed to be used with something to break down the waste, you can get away with not using a flush tank additive, but the waste tank will need to have something added to it. If you're worried about using the high potency Thetford chemicals you could opt to go for Biomagic, which is biodegradable and grey water and septic safe.

G'day Beverly,

The Porta Potti 365 is the exact same size as the Porta Potti 165 with some slightly more premium features. The 365 has a piston style pump, while the 165 has a bellow style pump, the 365 also has a built-in holding tank indicator on the front so you'll know when it's time to empty it without having to open it up and check. 

G'day Derek,

The Aqua Kem Blue and Green are both designed to break down waste in the waste tank, with the difference being the Green is septic safe. The pink is a flush water additive to help keep the flush water clean and fragrant. We generally suggest that people buy one of each the green and pink, or blue and pink to begin with.

G'day Mark,

If you're planning to use this unit in the snow then I'm afraid the liquid will freeze in the snow, so we'd suggest storing the unit inside or going for something like the Thunder Down Under Toilet instead

G'day Cameron,

I managed to find a FAQ on the Thetford website and they indicate the following: 'Porta Potti: one time max load is 400kg; max loading in normal use is approx 120kg (6000 cycles)'. Hopefully that's helpful.

G'day Paul,

We don't recommend it mate, sorry!  Being corrosive, the salt water would destroy the inner rubber seals pretty quickly but if you did decide to use it, we would advise you to wash it thoroughly with fresh water as soon as you were able.  Also, I'm pretty sure that any damage due to salt water wouldn't be covered under the warranty either mate.  Cheers :)

G'day Johnny,

The Porta Potti Qube 365 can be used for all toileting. I'm assuming you mean 'number twos' when you say 'black waste', which will be absolutely fine.

G'day Leeanne,

We've taken a few snaps of the Thetford Portapotti Qube 365 fitting into the Oztrail Canvas Toilet Bag, which you can see attached. Cheers!

G'day Brad,

The Thetford Portapotti Qube 365 does fit inside the Oztrail Canvas Toilet Bag. 

G'day Eve,

Unfortunately, the Oztrail Canvas Toilet Bag is the only toilet bag we stock and Oztrail themselves are currently out of stock, which is why we're about a month away from having some stock. 

G'day Lyn,

You don't necessarily need to use the chemicals with the Thetford Portapotti Qube 365 but it would certainly make a positive difference if you did. 

G'day Mick,

Glad you mentioned it!

I've just done a run around and it looks as though we've only just ended that promotion as we've run out of stock of the carry bags. So we've quickly changed the images back to how they were.

If you have a second, please give us a call on 1300 914 007 - we'd like to make up for the blunder.
