Which vitreous china toilets fit in a Palm Beach?
Epoxy has the original functional, but it won't be for long.
Thanks.

I installed a Sealand 510. It is not available any more, but I think the Dometic 310 is almost identical. In any case, I'm pretty sure any RV toilet will fit. They are pretty standard.

Look here also:
http://lqqkatjon.blogspot.com/search?q=toilet
it was a dometic 310, very easily found, and inexpensive. This is the taller toilet that I installed.
as for my review after having this toilet for a couple years now, you have to be careful on pushing down the pedal to just add water and not dump the water. Very little movement between water valve opening and the water dumping. I also seen to have the dump seal is not so good, because it does not hold water in the bowl anymore for long time. (maybe 4-6 hours?, I usually come back to a dry bowl now, but maybe adding some olive oil or something would help, since that seal sits dry all winter and other long period of times).
for the price, and ease of install, the toilet is just perfect. i think I paid like $130 for the toilet.

My local RV parts place says to use Silicone grease on the "O" ring on the
blade seal. I bought some silicone grease "Oatey" part number 30219 at
Lowe's in the plumbing department. I gloved up and smeared the grease on
the valve in my toilet. Took a couple of days, but it now seals like it did
when it was new. I was going to rebuild it, but now I don't have to for a
while. Don't know how long that will work, but we'll see.

My wife bought me a Dometic 310 as a birthday present. About $130 after tax and shipping. Hmmmm
Anyway, it went in easily and there we no fitment probglems, and I was able to give the old "Aqua Magic" away so I didn't have it sitting around. I like the extra height.

Yep, how I grew up. Three rooms and a PATH. Everyone else in town had the
same. Mill town in the Cascade foothills. This summer I had the Roto-rooter
guys out to get rid of the roots in my septic system. First guy hung up his
snake in the pipe and gave up. Left the snake in the pipe, the toilet off
the flange, and put his machine in the truck and left. Three hours a
"technician" came out, put a TV camera down the pipe, and said " Yep, looks
like he hung up in the baffles" Hooked his machine onto the snake, put it
in reverse, and backed it out of the pipe. Not till he broke the pipe,
though. Wanted about $3000.00 to fix the damage they caused. They didn't
get the job. Kinda wishing for an outhouse about then. (Grin) All is well
now.

I don't think that adaptor does a person any good. that is to take a 2 bolt toilet flange, to make it a 4 bolt. I think the new toilet flanges are set up for 4 bolt?
Anyhow, the 310 toilet does only use 2 bolts to hold it to the floor, and i would agree, that is not quite enough, especially when the toilet flange mount is plastic, and you have to be careful not to overtighten the bolts and crack the flange. I used some good RTV silicone sealant(the kind you use on an aquarium to seal the seams), and that made the toilet sit tight to the floor with no wobble.
I am not sure what toilets use a 4 bolt mount to the floor, or might have a bigger base, or what those might cost for those upgraded mounting features. But with the sealant, my 310 sits solid.

I don’t know about the adapter, but you're increasing the price of the toilet by a fair amount just to mount it. I have installed several toilets in coaches that I have rebuilt, the last one that I put in the stretch was the Aqua-Magic Style Plus which comes in both low and High profile. Didn’t require any adapters, works well and the wife likes it. (Important)
The low profile is about 12.5 inches tall and the 17.5 inches. A lot of people like the high profile unit which is ADA compliant.
There are many choices out there and you must decide what you want.

I used this adapter plate when going from 9 and 3 o'clock positions to 11
and 5 o'clock.

I am assuming that at least a couple of you guys experienced cut off 55 gallon oil drums and adding diesel to the mixture.
