- [Alternative Toilets](https://modern-shed.com/blog/alternative-toilets): Installing a traditional bathroom/toilet in an accessory building like our Modern Sheds is not quite as easy as one might expect. A traditional bathroom has three different plumbing components. The first is bringing fresh water to the unit which is typically straightforward and simple. However, the second and third components are where things get more complicated; the water and waste leaving the bathroom is separated into two different categories: grey and black water. “Gray” water is wastewater coming from sinks and showers and bathtubs. “Black” water is the wastewater coming from a toilet. In many places, gray water is not an issue; it’s like washing a car or anything else as the only “pollutant” in gray water might be soap. However, in all jurisdictions, dumping “black” water is illegal and considered hazardous waste. Hooking your bathroom to a septic system or a city sewer line is typically the only option and often can be expensive and cause permitting issues.
