Jensen recirculating toilet
« on: August 03, 2008, 02:42:11 AM »
Hello to all? some? one?
I have an older trailer, 1972 Great Divide which of course ceased business in 1984. It is equipped with a recirculating toilet - a Jensen dual action model 750E, which we have never used as a recirculator, only hooked direct to sewer. Jensen has also gone out of business (of course) and I dont have the manual for the toilet and nothing comes up on an exhaustive search of the web.
I need to know how much water to add for the initial charge and how long before dumping to the holding tank or what quantity - signs point to the need to empty to tank.
Thanks for any help available,
Bob

My parents had that type of toilet in there fifth wheel of about the same year but I don't remember much about it.  My best guess is to charge it it so that there is a couple of inches of water in the bottom of the tank.  If if doesn't seem to flush well then add more water a little at a time until you get proper flushing.

If you plan to use the trailer 'self-contained' frequently for several days at a time, you may want to consider replacing the recirculation toilet with a conventional RV toilet and holding tank system.
