Canadian holding tank supply
 

Ronco made mine with two dip tubes, one for the deck pumpout and the other
for the diapharagm pump, so I don't need a Y valve. Very happy with their
tank and fittings. All were installed on the top of the tank.

I checked the ronco site and they have a tank the size I need but they
do not appear to have the option of a top discharge, that is with an
internal pipe from a top fitting to the bottom of the tank. I don't like
the idea of a bottom discharge.

They'll install any fittings you specify, in any location you specify,
including a discharge on the top with a pickup tube inside to the bottom.

If the tank is going in a sailboat, I recommend that you put ALL the
fittings ON the top, with both the vent and the inlet from the toilet
away from the hull, toward the centerline of the boat. That will prevent
waste in the tank from flowing into the vent line and the head discharge
hose when you're heeled, no matter which tack you're on.

BTW, Phillips makes a nice 110V bulb coated with Teflon, so that if it
breaks, glass doesn't fly everywhere. I use them in the shop light in the
engine room.

Nothing fancy, just a switched bare bulb.

I installed a backlight for the present tank, this shows the level

clearly.

Note in particular that you NEED a means of determining the level in
the

tank,

and a flame-arrestor on the vent tube.
