Cassette Toilet - Page 4

Redtail Cruiser · 06-13-2014, 11:01 PM

I plugged the sewer line with a 3 inch expandable rubber pipe plug. Like Kidkraz, I'm keeping my Electromagic, so when I sell the trailer, the new owner can decide which one they want to use. I may be upgrading to a Rise in a couple of years.

I put in a Curve as well. Great mod.

Mark,

Where did you purchase that thedford at? Was it difficult to install?

The Cassette toilet is a factory option. Our 2013 was severely damaged by hail, so we bought the 2014 and the cassette toilet was an option. Looks darn near impossible to retrofit this model, but maybe some super handy folks could do it. I would go with the Thetford Curve if I was replacing the recirculating toilet.

Hi Art, I shopped around the internet for a few days and found the best price on eBay, the Curve and the mounting plate were $138 with free shipping. Amazon had a similar price at the time, but wanted 8 3/4% sales tax.

I think if I ever changed the toilet it would be with a cassette permanently installed. I have look at those with the rotating bowel, but they are in the 650 to $800 range. I like the idea to have an access door for pulling out the cassette.

So at this time and only owning the TM since mid Feb and 13 nights under the clam shell. We have not had any smell issue. But I do like the cassettes, it makes it easier when camping where there is no dump. You just dump it in the out house.

Art,

What do you do with your gray water?

Mark, thinking of doing this mod, you think darn near impossible to retrofit. Can you tell me why? I've been gathering info for a week including videos and drawings, don't want to make a mistake so any input would be valuable in my thought process.
I'm very handy with the needed skills but would love to hear your thoughts before I make the plunge! Anyone else??
I have had cassettes prior and like the convenient dump options.

I too would love the cassette that has the opening on the outside to pull the holding tank out and not have to carry it thru the camper.

Maybe you could be the first with the mod! Then take pics for me!!
Actually I'm seriously looking into it. Waiting on a few answers . The kit comes with everything needed except the skill
