Hi Kevin,
Our coach has a JABSCO Model 18590 Mascerator that was reportedly installed in 1997, and it is still working well for us.

Hope to see you and Maureen at the January rally in St. Augustine.

Kevin,
Search the previous post for macerators, there are some good system designs on them. But I think you will be happy with one.
I went with a flojet twist on type. It works, but it's temporary until I get a chance to put in more of a permanent setup.
I like the higher amp models, extra cutting power is always good.

Kevin,

Do a search on the GMC Photosite and look for Macerator. You will find a large number of different layouts that may fit your need.

I have a PO installed Jabsco. Other than having to rewire it and install a larger circuit breaker, it has worked well for nine plus years without
issue, other than needing to take it apartand clean hair out of it a couple of times.

It looks like Jim K has a whole kit with all the fittings, hoses, etc on his site with a Flowmaster pump. Buying something like that might make it
easier to install.

Kevin,

Check out this unit:

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/g6769-seaflo-macerator.html

The advantage of this unit is that it has a quick disconnect fitting on the inlet so when some dummy (guess who) puts a paper towel
down the toilet and jams it you can remove the unit easily.
