Hi - such a fantastic concept & beautiful design!
can you tell me the anticipated ongoing useage costs - for like a year if I use it every day for a home of 3 eating fresh fruit & veg every day. What will filter replacements cost / how often / and the starter sachets - how much do they cost and how often do I need to use them? Thanks - I really hope I can fit this in my budget …. Totally brilliant solution, thanks! :)
Hi just an update on cost since we reduced the cost of the Filter Refill and the Compost Activator.
Filter refills cost R100 and may need replacing every 4 months if you are running it 3 times per week.
Compost Activator is R60/595g which lasts 35 cycles.
Electricity costs about R1/cycle if on Eskom.
Some people may produce more or less waste so it depends on your household's habits, but generally it doesn't cost much to run and is still less costly to the environment than throwing food waste in the bin.
Thanks for the speed and details of the response! 💜💟💜
Hi thanks so much, For 3 people you would probably need to run it 3 times per week, in which case you would need 12 Activators, costing R24.
The filter you would need to then change every 4 months, which works out to R37.50/month
Electricity costs R1/cycle which would cost R12/month Some people may produce more or less waste so it depends on your household's habits, but generally it doesn't cost much to run.
