Why you should buy a boat toilet
Since 2015, there has been a sewage discharge ban, which means that it is prohibited to discharge sewage into the water. There are no technical requirements for the design of a boat toilet. But if you are going to use it on board, it must have a tank and deck connection. Do you have a boat toilet that lacks a holding tank or septic tank able to empty above deck? Then you need to either convert it or replace it. Some alternatives include a portable toilet, dry toilet, or disposable toilet.
Different types of boat toilets
At Biltema you will find several different types of boat toilets to suit your needs and your specific boat.
- Marine toilet with hand pump. Advantages of this toilet are that the flush pump can be on either sides and the toilet can be installed both above and below the waterline. The drain on this model is connected to a septic tank.
- Marine toilet with electric pump. The toilet is emptied with an electric pump that grinds down waste and paper. Works great with both with salt water and fresh water.
- Portable chemical toilet with hand pump. A model that is easy to both clean and empty. Perfect not only for boats but also for caravans, for example. There is also a model with a larger septic tank. It also has an injection pump and flushing mechanism for better flushing, along with a swivel drainage pipe that makes emptying easier.
At Biltema you will also find accessories for your boat toilet. One example is toilet paper for portable toilets. Additional accessories include antifreeze and cleaning products. These ensure that your boating adventure will be as successful as possible.
