Sanitation Systems
Toilets
Two types or models of toilets are used on KZ recreational vehicles.
One is the
Style II model featuring a foot pedal for flushing. The second
type is referred to as the Aqua Magic V . This toilet is available with one
lever for flush operation or with foot flush operation.
Prior to using your toilet, be sure to add 4 oz. of a deodorant chemical
into the toilet with water. Flush contents into tank plus two or three gallons
of water. The manufacturer of the toilets, Thetford Corp., offers a
complete line of deodorants, chemicals, and other convenience products
for your use. Your dealer can assist you with these needs and may
already have them in stock.
Operation
By pressing the pedal down partially, you will add water to bowl. Push
down completely to flush contents into waste tank. Release pedal slowly
to close flush operation.
For hand lever operation, pull lever forward to flush. To add water only,
pull lever half way forward. When releasing lever(s), do so slowly.
When hooked up to a sewer drain at a campground, ALWAYS keep the
termination valve CLOSED until the tank is at least 3/4 full. This will
provide sufficient water to assist in complete draining of tank.
Using Toilet and Tank System
When camping you should always have 4 to 6 inches of water in the
toilet bowl. The toilet system performs better when you run water 10 to
20 seconds after flushing to ensure wastes will proceed to the bottom of
the tank. Unlike your toilet at home which uses four to seven gallons
per flush, the average recreational vehicle system uses two to three
quarts. If there is not sufficient water used during flushing, waste
materials may not evacuate properly from drain line to tank. Tank and
pipes could eventually become clogged.
Vent
A very important part of your sanitation system is the vent system in your
coach. These vents release air from holding tanks allowing water to
enter. Vent pipes are attached to the holding tank and go through the
walls and cabinets to the roof. On some models a portion of vent pipe
may be part of the drainage
system referred to as a “wet vent”. As air
flows upward, water will be draining downward.
It is important to use adequate water to flush and have several
gallons of water with chemicals in the tank. This helps the
flow of wastes and reduces solid waste build-up.
