Jabsco macerator
« on: September 17, 2021, 04:22:06 AM »
I have a Jabsco macerator toilet and I have T-paper clogging it.
I using two ply paper that is not RV two ply, is this my problem?
Must I use two ply RV paper or is it the toilet?
I remove the paper from the blades and they are hard plastic.
Have anyone else had this issue?

Thanks

Put a couple squares of the offending toilet paper in a jar of water and close the lid. Let  it sit awhile, and then have a look, give it a shake.

"RV toilet paper" is a conspiracy...

Happy coaching!

use Scott 1000 sheet toilet paper. Been using it for years. Wont clog. Leave the Charmin on the shelf. Problem can be many women want cloud soft 10 ply. Tell them tough, rough it.

Is the problem the type of paper?

Or too much paper?

Or too little water?

I have a johnson pump macerater toilet and it eats anykind of toilet paper. It maybe as someone else said that it isn't getting enough water. Get an adjustable water pressure regulator and bump the pressure up to 50psi   That is what mine is set at and it gets lots of water and will grind up anything. It never fails to amaze me lol

You need a Masadisposerator. It does not care what goes through it. 12 years and keeps on going.

 A water pressure regulator will NOT "bump" up anything,, if you have a 40 pound delivery, it will not give you 50 pounds of pressure.  It takes a PUMP to pressurize water..>>>Dan

He is probably talking about outside water source that bypasses on board pump and fresh water tank.

Maybe,but if outside water source is reduced from 80psi at spigot to30 for coach water system, adjusting the regulator up to 50 would flow more water. But...ahh nevermind.😳
