Don't want to hijack the thread, but since macerator pumps have been mentioned a time or two I have a question. Don't these need a fresh water connection to work? If so, how could they be used boondocking?
As mentioned, the FloJet Waste Macerator Pump runs on 12 vdc supplied by either your trailer or truck. If one prefers water under pressure from a fresh water supply
can be connected to the macerator to back flush the tanks but I never bother, instead preferring to use a tank wand down the toilet throat when I'm servicing the tanks here at the house where I have city water under pressure readily available.
In the rare circumstance where I might want to offload and macerate the contents of the black water tank while camping I simply run the toilet to add fresh water to the black water tank but this of course has nothing to do with the macerator itself.
