Regulations/legal issues with installations in Ontario

welcome , well you need a water supply, it can be a jug with a pump faucet that drains into a sink that drains into a bucket.
you need a separate electric, I would put a rv converter system, cheap and you get 12volts/120volts
Im not sure of if a composter toilet would be ok, you can use a portable tyoe that has its own water Im not a fan of little box toilets
and u can use a plug in fridge, and electric heat.
you also need paint the outside, also have you looked into insurance?
where abouts are you? Im in northwestern Ontario

google rv conversion requirements Ontario I cant copy the link for it
"motorhome" means:
a motor vehicle that is used for personal purposes as a temporary or permanent residence and contains at least four of the following items:
Cooking facilities, a refrigerator or an ice box, a self-contained toilet, a heating or air conditioning system, an independent electrical power supply or an independent gas supply or a potable water supply system with faucet and sink.

for insurance I had to get my propane inspected, then I had to get an appraisal done, I also needed a safety check, then I could get my insurance.
when I bought the bus it came with a safety, I went right over to mto and transferred it into my name, and they registered it as a motorhome , no on looked at it, and it still had all the seats in it, they said that I had to have the colour changed within 60 days.

I would only install a woodstove after the inspection.

I would also hold off on the wood stove till you are all legal , then but one in , not sure how insurance company would like it
as for taking out the ceiling and walls, both have been done , I gutted my walls and reinsulated them. I left the roof the way it was, lot of work to remove .

they might be sticky about the toilet. I know SK does not consider a portable toilet a toilet in an RV lol.
