I was thinking of replacing some hoses
A hose that in "SUCTION" (like both of those intakes) would seem a good idea. My J/Boat has reinforced hoses for both..
Any head intake hose needs to be rated for below-waterline use...
I use odor-safe hose on the head intake
There's a cure for that...
Thanks for the tip Peggie
Ok...Cure for that Plan B:
Not bad. That would simplify winterizing too.
A garden hose Y valve...
They are mostly made of plastic now
Not in this application

Yeah I noticed... is this due to the height of water in the sink drain?
I need to plug the sink on mine, it's not far enough below the waterline.
Peggy - which 3/4" hose to use?
I'd go with Shields or Trident #148 for head intake and tank vent line.
Thanks!
Craig, you may need a rebuild kit for that head pump
That'll cost him almost as much as the toilet...
Recirculating?
You said you're seeing blue tank product that you'd previously flushed coming out of the holes in the rim...
Wow.........
They don't call Peggie the Queen of Quap for nothing
Actually, I don't know of anyone else who calls me that.
Oh no!
Weeellll... the odds aren't good.
