According to my Jabsco toilet instruction manual it takes 7 pump strokes per meter of hose. Lets see, if the hose is 1.5 inch (I believe Skip said) then one meter is equal to about 1140 cubic centimeters, or slightly more then a liter. So, if the hose between the toilet and the holding tank is 1 meter long it is a minimum of a liter a flush. If, on the other hand, it is longer then a meter and there is an anti-siphon loop then.... It appears that bigger IS better... Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |
