Macerator Hose Attachment
« on: June 15, 2025, 02:20:46 pm »
  Our slightly used 2019 3100 came with the macerator hose with a fitting on the end for attaching a 3/4 hose for extended length pumping,. Very handy to reach the sewer cleanout in our yard with an extra garden hose when necessary. Last week, while dumping at a campground, the end piece detached and went right down the sewer pipe never to be seen again. I thought the end section was one whole piece.. Attached is a picture of what we have left for a hose fitting. Before I call Phoenix, does anyone know if the fitting I am describing came with the PC either optional or original equipment?

I think it was original.  My 2019 2552 had the same piece as delivered.  Probably available from Thetford, somewhere online, but I've never had occasion to look for one.

  Problem solved. After chatting with Keith at PC Service, we determined my unit has the Thetford Turbo (I think the 600) with a screw-on "Marine Kit Cap" fitting to attach a garden-type hose to. Apparently not all the PC units have this. He is sending me one for about the same price as Amazon. The fitting is black and screws onto the grey handle. It likely worked its way loose over the past 5 years. I only really need it if I want to dump an extra distance like at home where I have a 75 foot hose just for reaching my sewer cleanout.
