Did you know that one of the major advantages of a VacuFlush marine toilet is that is only uses about a pint and a half of water per flush? That sort of efficiency is capable of extending the effective capacity of a holding tank by about 400% when compared to the less efficient flushing systems. |

Yes, and it also makes fresh water flushing feasible which eliminates another source of odors. |

The only thing is ... the natural bacterial breakdown of solids in the tank depends on an adequate supply of water. I've been using the stuff Peggie Hall recommends for years (Raritan K.O.) but always add a little bit more water to the bowl than that which is automatically filled by lifting the lever with my foot after each use. Even with that, with a 100 gallon holding tank, it has never been more than 30 percent filled before I dump or have a pumpout. Eisboch |

Another advantage.......less noise and less likely to wake you up when your better half has to empty her/his bladder in the middle of the night. ;-) |
