Casset Toilet
- Thread starter jed
- Start date
The toilet should have its own top water tank, normally located in the cassette cupboard. This won't be connected to mains.
We also have a 14.44.5 and ours works from the pump and the water tank. To flush you need to have the pump switched on (as explained to us during the handover).
This model is not like the older Tetfords - they had their own tank for flushing.

Well there you go I never knew that Its a shame you have to use the main tanks though to flush but nothing stays the same for long.
I've got a new 20-63.1 and the there is no separate flush water tank. It draws it's water from mains if connected or tank water if not connected to mains water. Interestingly, regardless of the water source and regardless of the water pump on/off switch the pump always runs when the flush button is pressed. I'm beginning to think there might be a second pump just for the thunderbox.
nup the models with seperate dunny have a different type of toilet and operate from main and/or tank
Bet
Bet it wouldn't be a hard mod to rig up using mains water though.
Ours has no top tank and I was under the impression that it was working off the mains but unless the pump is turned on nothing happens so now im not sure if its pumping from mains or from the tank so i'll just keep waterin at least the back tank just incase
Hi beecee we just got back from our maiden voyage with our 14.44.5 and worked out that the toilet needs the pump on when fushing ( not sure yet if water is coming from tanks or mains so i will keep water in at least one tank ) but the hot water runs off mains no need for the pump to be on ,we only use toilet at night so will only turn the pump on then flush then turn pump back off hope this helps , the other thing i learnt from others is that when connected to 240v u dont need the water heater switch on as long as the switch in the outside box is switched to 240v other wise your using gass to heat the water as well as 240v and welcome to the forum it has been so very helpful for us ,enjoy your van we love ours cheers :
Hi IM wondering what people use to clean out the cassette after dumping ? I emptied ours before we left a camp site and rinsed it with water but I would like to rinse it with some kind of cleaner that's not going to cost an arm and leg ,IM happy to use the right chemicals after I have cleaned it ,any help with this would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Thanks
Might be the go Adam if it works then can't get any cheaper than that ,its just because we bought a new van they are trying to push al kinds of cleaners on us and would rather do what works for people in here
Cheers mate
Lately I've used White King Power Clean Toilet Bleach Gel. It's also a disinfectant , I have been happy with this just a small amount seems to do the job.
