Conditions at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the El Paso Intl Ap, TX station, about 4 miles away.
Conditions for Events
DOE's Building America map puts El Paso County in the Hot-Dry climate region (IECC 2021 zone 3B, PNNL county guide). This region combines hot summers with low humidity: sun, dust and water supply are the usual planning issues, more than rain.
Heat
About 117 days a year reach 90°F or more, more than nine in ten U.S. places in our data, so heat is the normal condition for months at a time. About 27 days a year go past 100°F. On sunny, dry sites, place units in shade where the site allows. Long, hot event days mean more use per unit and tanks that fill sooner: plan a service visit between days of a multi-day event, keep queues short so nobody waits in the sun, and put hand-wash stations at every restroom row.
Freezing Nights
About 42 nights a year reach 32°F or below, fewer than most U.S. places in our data, mostly between late fall and early spring. Spring and fall events can still catch a freeze overnight; if units stay out between event days, ask how hand-wash stations are protected.
Outdoor Season
Both ends of the year matter: summer dates need servicing and shade planned for heat, winter dates need a plan for anything that carries water.
Local Settings
At open-field events on dry, exposed ground, ask for units to be staked.
How Many Units
The Portable Sanitation Association International (PSAI) chart sizes event restrooms by crowd and hours, assuming no servicing during the event:
| Crowd | 1 hr | 2 hrs | 3 hrs | 4 hrs | 5 hrs | 6 hrs | 7 hrs | 8 hrs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 500 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 9 | 9 |
| 1,000 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 8 | 9 | 9 | 11 | 12 |
| 2,000 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 |
| 5,000 | 12 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 31 | 38 | 44 | 50 |
| 10,000 | 15 | 25 | 38 | 50 | 63 | 75 | 88 | 100 |
On one of El Paso's roughly 117 days at 90°F or more, take a five-hour event for 1,000 people: the chart gives 9 units. If alcohol is served, PSAI adds 10–20%, which is 10 to 11 units after rounding up. For accessibility, 5% of 11 is 0.55, which rounds up to 1 ADA unit in a single cluster; split into 2 clusters of 6 and 5, each cluster needs its own, so 2 ADA units in total.
On hot days, add a service visit for anything longer and put hand-wash stations at every row. See the PSAI event chart for the full table.
Placement and Access
Put restroom rows on firm, level ground the service truck can reach, away from food prep, with ADA units on an accessible route and hand-wash stations beside the rows.
Dry, Windy Sites
Only about 9 inches of precipitation falls in an average year, in the driest tenth of U.S. places in our data. At open-air fairs, races and lots, a tipped unit is a hazard; ask for anchoring on exposed sites.
Who to Ask About Local Rules
El Paso is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For a special event on public property, a park reservation, or restroom rows on a street or sidewalk, ask the El Paso city government before you book what applies.
What to Ask For
- Expected attendance, including staff, vendors and volunteers
- Event hours, and whether it runs over several days
- Whether alcohol or food will be served
- ADA units for every cluster (at least 5%, rounded up) and hand-wash stations
- Winterized hand-wash stations for cold-season dates
- Extra servicing on hot days
