I have the hand flush model and fumes are escaping where the hand flush arm enters the bowl area. There is a non-replaceable seal there so I can't fix it. I actually like the toilet and am considering the foot flush model to replace it. Does anyone know if the foot flush model is repairable ??
Not clear. The hand flush "arm" is not the "blade" in the bowl. You have to undo the two bolts holding the toilet to the flange, undo the water hose, turn the toilet upside down, replace the rubber seal that the blade goes against, and that should fix any leaking from the bowl so now it will hold water and no fumes come out.
You will need the Thetford seal for the bowl and also a new flange seal, both common items in RV parts stores.
Have had both, and prefer the foot pedal. Don't have to bend over the toilet to reach the handle. :(
Not to be confused with the seal "kit" for the toilets with a "ball" instead of a "blade".
