What brand toliet in Montana 5th wheel?

How can you find out OR tell what brand toilet you have in your unit. 2011 Montana 3455 5th wheel. Bowl will not hold water, expect seal is bad. Bowl is porcelain/China. Flush pedal is on left side as you sit.

    Thanks everyone for all the suggestions and ID of model. If I have to replace it can it be done from top with removing toilet. Can I get the repair kit on line?


    Yes, all available online.

    You might want to try what I posted above first, your seal might be fine, just full of sediment or other crud.

    Thetford has a procedure to give the seal a "tune up" without actually replacing it. You add hot water to the bowl after removing and cleaning the seal, and let the hot water sit in the bowl for a while. You also want to lube the seal after putting it back in. I had the same problem with my 1 year old toilet and this fixed the problem. Did not have to replace the seal.

  • toilet in my 2011 Montana. can anyone ID the brand and model. China/Porc bowl
  • Did you try looking down and behind and near the bottom of the base on the side opposite the flush pedal? I think mine had a label there with manufacturer and model.

    Also as a new Montana owner, go over and join the Montana Owners Club forum for all things Montana.
  • post pic. We'll tell you. Some units have many owner's manuals covering each item.
