Description
Text
Kind of toilet facility - the kind of toilet facility that the household is using; measures the sanitation level of the household, important for disease control and health improvement
Classification of toilet facilities:
11 - Flush toilet (water-sealed) - 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 depository. Examples: flush type with septic tank (commonly known as Poso Negro) or pour-flush type connected to a pit.
Flush type of toilet is considered owned if the household has exclusive access to the toilet. Otherwise, the type of toilet is reported as shared.
21 - Closed pit (sanitary pit or privy) - a nonwater carriage type of toilet facility where pit is dug to a depth of 4-6 feet large enough to hold wastes for several years. A floor cover at the top of the pit is provided together with a riser, seat, and self-closing lid, all made as fly-tight as possible. Vents maybe provided. Example: Antipolo-type
22 - Open pit - a squat-type of toilet over a pit with no provision for fly prevention.
31 - Drop type/overhang type - a drop-type of toilet has enclosures or with roofing but no pit is made (pig system). Overhang type is a toilet constructed over a body of water (either sea or river).
41 - No toilet/field bush - when households which do not have toilet facilities defecate along the railway, river/canal, in the field or behind the bushes, and the like.
96 - Other toilet facilities - include other kinds of toilet facilities not belonging to the aforementioned types. Example: pail system
