The Lavac System
General
The well known Lavac system is unique
and probably the only single action, above
or below water line, marine WC.
The Lavac has a china pan and is available
as either hand or electrically operated. On
the electric models 12 or 24V DC can be
supplied.
To flush simply close the lid and operate a
single pump. Pressure is reduced in the
bowl as waste goes out and flushing water
is drawn in. A small air bleed valve in the
inlet pipe prevents siphoning.
The particularly hygienic operation and
quietness are characteristics which in
themselves make Lavac a popular choice
for discerning owners. Simplicity of opera-
tion, robustness and reliability are further
important features.
By using a diverter valve the Lavac’s pump
can also be used for other pumping opera-
tions, such as shower tray discharge, bilge
pumping or discharge of the holding tank
(see page 20).
Because legislation is now prohibiting over-
board discharge from toilets, or at least
making it impractical, this edition of the
Lavac owners handbook now gives guid-
ance on holding tanks (see pages 18).
