2910 T new toilet is in the mail

I have to agree with JATRAX and a couple others... I just picked up my 5th Phoenix Cruiser (2nd 2350 Sprinter) and am most happy so far -- only traveled from Elkhart to MD, but leaving for the rally in Sisters this week.  The slide issue, I'm convinced, was not due to Schwintek (sp) but the small issues noted, as I had two S------tek slides on my 5th wheel with no problems.  Phoenix has ALWAYS responded to any issue I have had - most agreeably, and expeditiously.
In short, I'm a "Happy Camper"

The next step in the toilet project is to find a new toilet seat and eliminate the seat with all th cut outs in the bottom... A cleaning nightmare. No advice  from Thetford... So with his measurements in hand Jim went off to shop for new seat. He selected one which looks like it will  work and measures well. tomorrow he will try it out and see... And I will tell you the brand and model if it does work well. Regards, Patricia

Thanks Ron, I know what you mean and with this potty if the seat does not fit fairly flush you may get water over the rim when the flush pedal is pushed. It does quite a spritz. This afternoon after Jims dentist adventure is the examination and determination if new can work.Thanks.
#2  our toilet is ceramic... 25 pounds   thetford    the current seat has cut out area's underside and has little narrow places that support it on the bowl rim...photos later when we are there this afternoon.

#3   the try at toilet seat change out failed. THe seat for this toilet is wider at back than a house toilet must be. If Jim keeps loosing weight we will need a training seat so he doesnt fall in. So looks like no new seat for now. But a no leak toilet is a blessing in disguise. Yeaaaah....Patricia

Hi Patricia,

I don't know your specific PC toilet, but I seem to recall that our PC toilet seat is contoured around the bowl.  When sitting on the seat, my body weight is distributed around the bowl.

A conventional toilet seat from a home improvement center typically doesn't sit flush on the ceramic bowl.  It has stand-offs.  If I installed a conventional seat on our plastic PC toilet, the concentrated pressure might cause a break.

Just keep that in mind when replacing your toilet seat.  Maybe removing the stand-offs and resting the seat flat across the bowl will eliminate such concern.

Newer toilets are china, not plastic.

Well the toilet seat has no supports that are removable to allow it to sit flat on the bowl. They have done a re design on the mold to save resin and make it light weight. It is a cleaners nightmare. And shall remain so due to the shape which does not match anything we have found commercially. But if the apparatus does not leak time to go to something else and be glad for indoor plumbing. P

Boy, the underside of that toilet seat sure does look hard to clean and keep clean.  I now understand your complaint much better.

Henry3,
Does the seat overhang the bowl rim enough to prevent it from moving?
I have to periodically loosen the seat and realign it.

The seat does indeed overhang the edge and we have never had to realign. It is not very movable with the tie down screws in place. PWS
