Hello,br>In comparison to electric toilets, using a manual toilet requires a little more effort. You'll have to pump the handle three times. To properly flush the system, repeat the process four times. br>If you need to reach out to me, please send an email to paul. More information is available at [email protected]. br>Best regards,br>Jabsco

It isn't working properly after hours of installation. I've been looking for a rebuild kit for my trusty 30 for a long time and haven't been able to find one. year- I decided to replace my old Skipper marine head with a new one. This is what I found. uh. deal. The first unit arrived quickly, but the bowl was smashed to bits. The Amazon return was simple, and the replacement was quick. When the second unit arrived, I immediately installed the toilet seat, as a previous review stated that this would be a problem. I was pleased to discover that the attachments were properly oriented and simple to install - Despite the fact that it required some logic to solve. A brought the unit to the boat first thing in the morning. The raw outlet on the side pump interfered with my water inlet seacock, despite the fact that I planned according to the online measurements. The next few hours were spent rebuilding the floor to make room for the new head, then replacing and re-installing the new head. I checked for dry fit while routing the hoses. I took a detour to Home Depot because securing bolts were not included. After an hour of bending and lining up the head, lines, support, and seacock - I was able to secure the unit in place with the help of a couple of bolts. It was difficult to reach the bolts that held the toilet in place on the floor. However, that is fairly typical of a marine head. I thought I was 'good to go' by the time evening arrived. I discovered a lot of backpressure and no water in the tank after the first few pumps on the toilet. Pumping the unit dry worked fine after switching to the 'empty bowl' setting; however, I disconnected the tank vent to ensure it was clear and ran the new intake hose directly into a bucket of water (pouring water directly into the hose in an attempt to prime) and had no luck. br>br>After doing some research on the internet, I discovered that the wet/dry valve is most likely to blame. I would be returning the unit at this point if the removal/installation process wasn't so inconvenient. Because I'm short on time, I'll have to disassemble the valve and try to replace it next weekend. I'm annoyed that I've spent so much time developing a new head only to have to replace a part before it's even been used!.
It was wonderful to be able to purchase an exact replacement and install it with no fuss. This is the third one I've had in the 20 years I've owned my boat. The re-entry of rubber seals into Florida is difficult due to the heat, the re-entry of rubber seals into Florida is difficult Because building kits are costly and inconvenient, I simply purchase a new toilet. These units are well-built and dependable.
When you're trying to use the head in a small cabin on a boat, it's both too short and too wide. When it comes to toilet size, every inch counts. br>br>When I contacted the seller, they sent me a form reply instructing me to return the entire unit rather than just sending me a new lid. I almost did it just for the sake of it, but it's not worth my time; instead, I'll go to Home Depot and get a new lid. If you have a regular Jabsco toilet seat, a standard toilet seat lid will fit. br>br>I suggest avoiding the soft close lid or looking for a different toilet seller. The level of customer service is appalling.
The discharge hose is very stiff and will not mate with the 45 degree elbow provided when replacing an old installation. I'm still on the lookout for a good answer.
Installing it was a breeze. This unit replaced a similar Jabsco head that had been converted to an electric flush and fill by the previous owner. I switched back to the manual pump head because the electric macerator was too loud for me, and I prefer the simplicity of the manual pump head. Water comes in through two connections, and waste is discharged into the holding tank through the other. In my opinion, keeping things simple is preferable.
Since purchasing the sailboat new in 1992, this is my third toilet installation. The valves and seals were replaced, but they only lasted a year. In a boat that is sailed year-round in Florida, three heads in almost 30 years is quite good.
It has been in place for several months with no problems, whereas the second electric needed to be rebuilt or replaced, which cost more than 2000 dollars. I chose the straightforward and dependable service that this head had provided with no problems.
JABSCO toilets are of good quality, and I've never had any issues with them. They don't last indefinitely, but that's fine because the cost of the basic version is reasonable.
