Flush Water Options

is highly recommended because it reduces odors
often associated with sea water and reduces system
maintenance.

(not screw-to-close type).
Use primary and secondary raw water lters (see
illustration).
Position vented loop between discharge side of
water pump and toilet. Must be equipped with
integral check valve that permits air into line to
prevent siphoning.
RAW WATER SYSTEM – VacuFlush vacuum toilets can ush with sea water but require a separate pump and
water ltration for this purpose. Please contact your nearest VacuFlush dealer, distributor, or Dometic Sanitation
sales ofce for complete information.
