Faults and Fixes
How do I clear a blocked marine toilet?
Most blockages are not in the toilet but in scale and sediment built up in the discharge line, so check the hose run before dismantling the pump.
Why it works this way
Forcing a blockage can split a hose or a union, at which point the problem changes from a blockage to water ingress. The discharge line and its fittings are inspected separately during a survey.
