Only toilets designed to use pressurized flush water can safely be connected to the fresh water supply. Not disagreeing at all, but there may be another way. I've done several deliveries on Grand Banks trawlers modified with extra fresh water tanks plumbed directly to and only to the heads, with no pressure other than a bit of gravity. Do you see any problem with that arrangement? Being a sailboater, I find the waste of fresh water apalling, but the main tanks probably hold 300 gallons. Or more. It's a different world. __________________________________________________ __________ Glen "Wiley" Wilson usenet1 SPAMNIX at world wide wiley dot com To reply, lose the capitals and do the obvious.
