  Flush WateR options

FRESH  WATER  SYSTEM  –  SeaLand  vacuum 

toilets can flush with fresh water or sea water. 

Fresh water is highly recommended because it 

reduces odors often associated with sea water 

and reduces system maintenance. 

inSTallaTion noTeS

•  See Notes from Freshwater System (above).

•  Seacock must be full-flow, marine quality valve (not 

screw-to-close type).

•  Use primary and secondary raw water filters (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 – SeaLand vacuum toilets can flush with sea water but require a separate 

pump and water filtration for this purpose. Please contact your nearest VacuFlush dealer, distributor, 

or Dometic Sanitation sales office for complete information.
