Toilet-Electric w/Pump Out Fittings
As an option electric toilets feature a deck fi tting
that permits a marina or waste station to pump
out the vessel waste or holding tank. A hose
attachment screws into the deck fitting and
removes the waste in the vessel toilet holding
tank by activating a land pump.
After the pump-out procedure rinse the waste
hose briefl y to eliminate a build-up of debris and odor before closing
the pump-out deck fi tting.
Read the manufacturer’s recommendations regarding toilet paper type
since household varieties are not usually “friendly” to the onboard
system or the marine environment.
As part of your pre-cruise inspection monitor the waste tank level and
obtain a pump out before undertaking any extended day cruising.
