MARINE SANITATION REGULATIONS All boats with fixed toilets in U.S. waters and in the waters of some other countries are required to be equipped with an operable marine sanitation device (MSD). The VacuFlush system is a holding tank or Type III system as defined by the U.S.
Holding Tanks: Holding tanks from Dometic are made of super-strong, 3/8" (9.5mm) thick polyethylene — 50% thicker than most other holding tanks. Each unit has a solid, one-piece construction with no seams for unmatched durability.
SYSTEM START UP 1. Turn on inlet water supply. 2. Turn on electrical power to system. 3. Flush water into system by depressing flush lever until water starts flowing to the vacuum pump, approxi- mately 15 seconds. The vacuum pump will run for approximately 60 to 90 seconds until system reaches operating vacuum level and then will shut off.
MAINTENANCE Maintenance intervals and normal parts replacement vary widely depending on numerous factors such as: type of vessel, frequency of system use, quality of flushing water, etc. The chart below is intended strictly as a general guideline. Owner discretion and consideration of actual usage must be the first basis for determining proper maintenance levels.
