Microphor Head...aches, 'Microphor ...good for crap' - timvasqz - 12-21-2008 05:18

I guess there are two types of Microphor units. In our 94pt, Pot is
over the tank and has a flapper with no air to push. I just ordered
a new flapper and seals($75.+/-,I never realy asked) to overcome a
problem with dry bowl between flushes. DryBowl leads to ,
FingerPointing and major Discord. I've gone as far as ordering DNA

RV show shopping, I noticed new SOB's had a kitchen sink style spray
wand near the plastic toilet. Not familiar with HFFR I asked the
saleswoman if this wand was some European thing?? she explained; The
rv's that choose appliances for weight limits often use plastic
pots. Plastic has flushing problems. Some folks wax the plastic to
overcome the High Fiber Flush Resistance HFFR. The wand is use to
help with flushing and appliance maintenance.

I found a nice plastic wand replacement nozzle in brushed chrome
with a saddle for less than 20. Drilled a proper size hole thru the
sink vanity and plumbded it to the cold water under the sink. Only
problem I see is the wand has no antisiphon backflow so I need to
drop in a sprinikler style inline check valve. Backflow siphon is
not much of an issue in a home that stays pressurized but an RV is
depressurized everytime you hook up.

I'll post some pics
