The Lite Flush is a 12V electric toilet with a rotatable seat and a compact body. This version is flushed from a one-touch control panel on a 10 ft cable. An internal macerator pump discharges up to 5 ft above the base of the toilet through a 1-1/2" hose. A self-priming rinse pump that tolerates running dry takes raw water in through a 3/4" hose and primes up to 10 ft.
Our take
The macerator pump discharges up to 5 ft above the base of the toilet, so the 1-1/2" discharge hose can rise about that far. The rinse pump self-primes up to 10 ft and tolerates running dry, which keeps its inlet side forgiving.
From our buying guide
A vessel with installed toilet facilities must have an operable marine sanitation device that is labeled or certified. EPA says untreated sewage may not be discharged within three miles from shore, and in a No Discharge Zone treated sewage may not be either.
Check before you buy:
- You have what it needs, since heads may call for 12-volt power, through-hulls and seacocks, or a separate vacuum source.
- It fits the compartment, since Jabsco says an electric toilet needs more space at the rear than a manual one.
- If it could sit below the waterline, you'll fit a vented loop as the maker specifies, since Jabsco warns the vent, not the loop, is what stops the siphon.
