This question finds out if the residents of the dwelling use sanitary plumbing to remove human excrement and urine, if it is for the exclusive use of that dwelling, and if the sanitary plumbing eliminates the waste materials through discharges of water.
Sanitary plumbing is understood as: toilet, lavatory, water closet, toilet bowl, latrine, black hole, or septic tank. Form these questions referring to the specific word that is used in the place where you are gathering the information.
The toilet can be located within the dwelling or on the property.
[p. 81]
Consider that it doesn't have a toilet when the residents of the dwelling defecate level with the ground in the open air (corral, patio, field, garden, woods, etc.)
The sanitary facility is shared when the residents of two or more dwellings are accustomed to use it habitually.
The sanitary facility has direct discharge of water when it's regulated with a lever or pedal.
There are sanitary installations that don't admit water for functioning, for example, dry latrines, black holes, and septic tanks.
