Potty Pedestal

I think it has to do with the black tank being very shallow and needed to give room for the plumbing.

hey, with my little short legs, any potty is too high for me to rest my feet. :)
do they make a potty seat belt?
bumpy

I noticed that the Fleetwood Expedition 36m puts the Pot up on a pedestal? Why do they do this? I would think it would make your time in there a little uncomfortable?

Fit for a King & Queen or both... LOL...

We had the toilet put on a pedestal in our tt. This raised the toilet about 3.5" inches higher - much easier to sit down on and get up from. DH is 6'1 and I am 5'6" but I guess we have long legs. The new height is much more comfortable. Standard toilets are about 14" high; newer ADA toilets are 17-19". Now I can go without feeling like I am falling in...

For what ever reason all standard RV toilets are 'lower' than a residential toilet.

First thing I did with my coach was to replace the toilet with a taller one. The choices for most are buying a taller one, adding an add on raiser OR buy a coach that the manufacturer fixes all that for you and puts it up on a pedestal!

My former Pace Arrow had the toilet on top of the holding tank and it wasn't a pedestal. The Newmar is all flush tothe floor. Are you sure the pedestal wasn't the holding tank?

Many models of RV toilets are made in both "high profile" and "low profile" heights. Hi profiles are typically about 16-17" high at the seat, and lo profiles are about 12-13" at the seat. Lo profile toilets are always installed on a raised pedestal that elevates them to standard height, usually to allow for a larger tank or other plumbing issues.

I think that this is the low profile type. I will look more closely and take a seat when I go back to the dealer to look at it again. I am worried about where I put my feet. Both out in front are not always the best when you are doing your paperwork.

We changed ours to a taller one. Much easier on these old knees.
