This question is intended to determine the type of toilet the members of the family use and not necessarily what they have in their house because in some cases, these two may be different. There are instances, especially in rural areas, that a separate toilet is constructed in the backyard.
If there are two or more toilet facilities, consider the one which is more sanitary. Encircle and write the appropriate code in the box provided.

Description
Teh different type of toilet are described below:
Water-sealed - all types of toilet, whether used exclusively by the household or shared with other households, where after water is flushed or poured into the bowl, a small amount of water is left in the bowl and seals the bottom of the bowl from the pipe leading to the sewer or septic tank. They may or may not have depositories other than a sewer or septic tank. However, if a water-sealed bowl is connected to a lake, river, stream or canal or down under, it is classified under (4) Others (pail system, etc.).
Closed Pit - This is the type of toilet, which is without a water-sealed bowl, and the depository is constructed usually of large circular tubes made of clay or concrete, a pit with concrete sides, or an ordinary pit or drum, covered on top and has a small opening. It may or may not have a box for seating or squatting over the opening.
Open pit - An open pit is a dug pit without any enclosures and usually without toilet bowls.
Other (Pail System, etc.) - Classify here a toilet system wherein human waste is accumulated in a pail to be picked up for disposal from time to time or any other kind of toilet not belonging to the preceding types.
None - Report this for a family having no toilet facility and usually resort to throwing human waste in wrapped paper or container.
