Type III MSD Waste Management System

Cleaning

Use Thetford’s Aqua-Clean, a non-abrasive all purpose 

cleaner, on the bowl and macerator pump. It is specially 

formulated and thoroughly tested to be save for all com-

ponents of your toilet system. It safely removes iron stains 

and hard water deposit and can be safely used on many 

other surfaces, including countertops, sinks, showers and 

tubs. Just squeeze Aqua-Clean onto surface. Allow to sit a 

few minutes and clean with a sponge. For severely soiled 

toilets, allow Aqua-Clean to soak overnight.

Never use household cleaners, which can contain bleach, 

in the toilet system. Household toilet bowl cleaners contain 

harsh acids. Bleach, petroleum based products, strong 

acids and abrasives can cause irreversible damage to the 

toilet system and components.

Winterizing

Use only propylene glycol based, non-toxic antifreeze 

when storing toilet during freezing conditions. Never use 

automotive antifreeze or windshield washer solvent to 

winterize.

Make sure that both the entire supply and discharge 

systems are thoroughly winterized to ensure complete 

protection for your system.

Storage

When Storing the system for more than two weeks, thor-

oughly clean toilet and hoses by flushing with Thetford’s 

Aqua-Kem, EcoSmart or Aqua-Clean.

Access to the Marine Head Discharge 

Sea- cock is located in the Fwd head area 

on the floor, it is the same access plate 

used for the Fwd Bilge pump.  

NOTE: This is a freshwater marine head 

system that runs off the boats freshwater 

tank, using the head will effect the boats 
freshwater supply. 

Seasonal Start-up

Test the toilet before using by flushing the toilet to check operation. 

Verify that there are no leaks.

Deodorants

Thetford holding tank deodorants deliver exceptional deodorant 

performance, tank cleaning and waste digestion.

Formaldehyde-based deodorants like Thetford’s Aqua-Kem deliver 

unsurpassed odor control even in the hottest conditions. Eco-Smart 

provides the best non-formaldehyde based odor control. Both are 

available as liquids in various sized bottles, granular in foil packets, 

and granular as water-soluble Toss-Ins.

EcoSmart, a liquid available only in a 32-oz bottle, provides enzyme 

based waste digestion and odor control.

Tissue

To facilitate flushing, it is recommended that you only use toilet 

tissues especially designed to disintegrate rapidly (unlike household 

tissues), such as Thetford’s Aqua-Soft (2ply) and RV/Marine Toilet 

Tissue (1ply).
