Hi,

First of all, I am in Perth.

I have a great Pop-top, and well, have recently worked on my garden shed to fancy it up a _lot_.
I bought a dometic VT 2500 and would like to install it in my shed. I am having trouble, as most plumbers don't seem to know what to do with it.

There are a couple of mobile guys here in Perth. However... do you know a plumber who is good with Dometic stuff, vacuum toilets, etc.? Any hints would be _greatly_ appreciated!

Thanks,

Merc.

Hi Merc

As said on CF, i doubt your local Council will allow it.

Have you thought about installing a standard toilet and hooking it up to your sewerage line.

It might be a little easier.

Had a look at the spec on the dometric site fairly straight forward,as a plumber i would assume if you hook the water to mains you will have to install a back flow device which are not cheap, and get it commissioned. also you still have to service this toilet. i doubt it has a water mark or a wells rating so no licensed plumber will touch it. good luck Dags

Hi Mercmobily,
I assume that you want to use it as an occasional toilet, and that you will empty the cassette on a regular basis.

Have you thought about installing it yourself ?

The diagrams at the following URL don't seem all that difficult.

Bloody hell Merc!

A toilet in the Shed.
Did you upset the missus or something?
