has received hundreds of complaints over the years about foul odors Ah yes, a symptom also experienced by the wonderful "if it's yellow, let it mellow; if it's brown, flush it down" ludites who don't know how to properly use a toilet (flush after every usage).

Yeah, that’s what I say about 99% of the libtards’ futile, misguided environmental efforts...PISS ON ‘EM!

Something is odd about this, if the cartridge is replaced at intervals and the janitors spray the inside of the urinal every night, then where are the odors coming from.
What would the urinal have to do with wet floors?
My plumbing supply warehouse has been using these for years, none of us plumbers and plumbing contractors have seen that problem.
I think the maintenance crew is just too locked into old Mexico ways to perform their duties.

Wasn’t Al Gore behind these waterless urinals too?

Yep, I remember when they had those long troughs in the bar bathroom. The smell was unmistakable.

I curse every time my ‘Ralph Nader’ toilet at home clogs up due to insufficent flushing power. Every thing liberals touch turns to dreck.

But VanLaningham says CalEPA has received hundreds of complaints over the years about foul odors and wet floors. Okay, so how is it the toilet vendors’ fault that CalEPA’s guys can’t hit the bowl?

Can you imagine the stink? I can. The sad part is that anyone with a brain would know those things wouldn’t work properly.
