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. Coast Guard. Type III systems are designed to permit operation of the toilet without the direct discharge of untreated waste after every flush. This means onboard toilet facilities can be used when the boat is near swimmers

KEY SYSTEM COMPONENTS Vacuum Toilet: The VacuFlush toilet operates in a way different from other marine toilets. VacuFlush systems use a small amount of water (a little more than a pint or .5 liter) per flush in addition to a simple vacuum. The toilet is connected to a pressurized freshwater system. Fresh water is the key to an odor-free bathroom compartment. VacuFlush toilets are equipped with an integral vacuum breaker which prevents the possible contamination of the potable water supply.

DEODORANTS AND SPECIAL TISSUE Your VacuFlush sanitation system requires the regular addition of a deodorant product to reduce malodors and to help break down holding tank contents. Several factors should be considered in selecting a deodorant product. Liquid or Granulated: Liquid products obviously work more quickly by readily going into solution. Granulated powder formulations, on the other hand, have the advantage of requiring less storage space and are less likely to leak if the package i
