Hello Peggy,
Thanks for all your good advice on the Net , and for your excellent book. May be you can help in the following problem too. I have two Jabsco 37010 Series standard electric toilets ( + one spare ) on my boat. They work fine, but are far too noisy. The so-called "Quiet- Flush conversion kit" by Jabsco costs around $600 and is really a complete new unit, where most parts seem identical to the standard unit. The only difference seems that the water pump is separate and is a more silent model. I think that Jabsco should have offered a true, lower cost true" conversion kit" for the existing toilets, where only the pump would be replaced. Anyway, I would not like to spend approx $1800 and replace an equipment that still works fine. I am wondering if I could not achieve the same noise reduction by disconnecting the built-in water pumps on my existing toilets, and replacing them by external quiet pumps, which would cost much less. I guess that I would also have to remove the impellers of the old pumps, otherwise, they would still make some noise and may end up burning. Do you know if this is a valid idea, and if it has been tried? Thanks in advance, Robert |
