4800 SERIES VACUFLUSH TOILETS

INSTALLATION – General Information (cont’d)

Holding Tanks

VacuFlush toilets operate with most holding tank or treatment systems. When installed with a holding tank, the maximum capacity of the tank should be large enough to avoid the inconvenience of frequent discharges. A 30-gallon tank (114-liter) will become full in about 90 flushes.

Electrical Requirements

Refer to wiring diagram on Parts List/Wiring Diagram sheet (shipped with toilet).

Seacocks

Seacocks are required by various marine regulations. Only full-flow, marine quality valves are recommended. Some regulations require the seacocks be configured so they can be locked in a closed position. Seacocks MUST be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Toilet Installation

See Toilet Mounting Template and instructions on separate sheet (supplied with toilet).

Deodorants and Special Tissue

Your VacuFlush toilet system may require the regular addition of a deodorant product to reduce malodors and to help break down holding tank contents. Several factors should be considered in selecting a deodorant product.

Liquid or Granulated. Liquid products work more quickly by readily going into solution. Granulated powder formulations have the advantage of requiring less storage space and are less likely to leak if the package is inadvertently damaged.

Formaldehyde versus Non-Formaldehyde.Dometic manufactures both types of deodorants. Generally speaking, formaldehyde formulas control odor very effectively at all temperatures and with all degrees of water hardness. Both SeaLand® Environment-Friendly and Clean ‘n Green™ brands, which are formaldehyde-free, are similarly effective.

How Much Deodorant and How to Add It. The deodorant is added directly into the toilet bowl, then flushed into the holding tank. Follow bottle or package instructions. Conditions of extremely warm weather, longer waste holding time and larger tank capacities may require more deodorant treatment. Also, to maintain optimum efficiency in odor control, the waste holding tank should be cleaned thoroughly at least once or more each season depending on use.

Why Not Use Household Toilet Paper in Your Toilet. Household tissues often contain adhesives which bond together the paper fibers from which the tissue is made. The adhesives prevent the tissue from breaking apart, and their use in “ultra-low flow” systems can cause system clogging. SeaLand tissue is especially designed for use in low water toilet systems. Its rapid-dissolving properties minimize the amount of residual paper in the holding tank and allow deodorizers to work more efficiently.

SeaLand Brand versus Other Brands. We constantly strive to provide our system owners with effective products that have minimal environmental impact and good value. Many deodorant products do not measure up to our standards of performance and value.
