An office building I used to work in tried this a few years ago. Within a few months they replaced them with flush urinals because the men's room was starting to smell like downtown San Francisco. Oddly enough, when I was in SF last month I noted that the outdoor smell of stale urine has largely been replaced by the smell of burning marijuana. It really is an improvement.
- someperson 16y agoI've heard urine is sterile, the smell occurs because of bacteria that grows after it has been passed. The urinal cake in waterless urinals (and you'd think even in the flushing variety) kill the odour causing bacteria and should stop any odours. I'm mot sure if this is true though.
