Toilet Overview, Care, and Maintenance
This article provides an overview of toilet operation and care and maintenance. “Go” in style and comfort, no matter where
your travels may take you.
Waste Water Drain Lines
The drain lines are plumbed from the sinks, showers,
and toilets are sloped to drain waste water to the grey or
black tank.
Toilets
CAUTION
!
Use only approved RV odor controlling chemicals
in the holding tanks. Do not use chlorine or caustic
chemicals like laundry bleach or drain-opening
chemicals, as they will damage the seals in the toilet
and dump valves. Products containing ammonia and
petroleum may damage the ABS plastic holding tanks
and seals.
Be careful not to spill the chemical on your
hands, clothing, or the carpet, as it may cause a
permanent stain.
IMPORTANT
!
Care and Maintenance
Before using the stool, treat the tank with water that is
mixed with an odor-controlling chemical, which is readily
available at any RV supply store. Mix as directed on the
holding tank chemical package. After mixing and flushing
the chemical mixture, the waste tank is ready for use. The
stool should be cleaned regularly for maximum sanitation
and operational efficiency.
When using your stool, it is wise to fill the bowl 3/4 full of
water. This will help to wash the solids away from directly
below the stool and to ensure complete dumping of the
holding tank. After flushing, a small amount of water
should remain in the bowl.
Dometic Macerator-Style Toilets with Flush Handle or
Switch Operation (Model: 8700 Series)
This article provides basic operation instructions for a Dometic Macerator-Style Toilet with Flush Handle or Switch (Model:
8700 Series).
The Dometic 8700 series MasterFlush toilet provides an
electric-flush toilet that macerates waste and pumps it to
a holding tank or other effluent storage/disposal system
using an inline macerator hidden in the base of the toilet.
Before adding water, consult the toilet manufacturer’s
owner’s manual for the specific procedure relating to
your system.
IMPORTANT
!
WARNING
!
Do not flush diaper wipes, feminine hygiene
products, or any other products that would not
be easily liquefied. Also avoid using holding tank
deodorant capsules, as they may cause damage to
the macerator. Damage resulting from flushing any
materials or objects other than organic waste and
toilet paper are not warrantable repairs.
To prevent holding tank odors from entering the living
space, make sure a small amount of water remains in
the toilet bowl.
NOTICE
!
Residual water trickle in ceramic bowls: Due to
integrated rim of this toilet bowl, water may continue
to slowly trickle into toilet bowl for up to 20 minutes
after flushing. If water trickle continues after 30
minutes, replace the water valve.
