Wet Pod

This is a first iteration of a wet pod that would be installed into the shipping container house.  Conceivably, the wet pod would include all water functions, including: shower, toilet, sink, water filtration, water collection (grey water and fresh water), and sewage containment.  The entire system is packed into the floor size of a standard 48″ x 42″ pallete.  This particular design allows for 22 pods to be packed inside one container.  Each pod will be transportable by forklift.  The pod is then “unpacked” and installed permanently into the container.  The wet pod also includes a “drum privy” dry toilet.  A 55 gallon drum is used to contain sewage.  The drum is vented, and sawdust or earth is added after each use.  A more detailed drawing or section describing this particular function will be included later.
