Description

The Dometic 970 Portable Toilet is a self-contained, full-size flush toilet built for van conversions, campers and boat installations. It holds 5 gallons (18.9 L) of waste, weighs about 13 lb empty, and needs no plumbing, wiring or batteries to operate.

Flushing works off a manual hand pump that pressurizes the freshwater chamber. A single push of the button clears the bowl instantly, and holding it longer releases more water, so you control how much you use. One pump charge typically covers four to five flushes.

Why it works in a van build

Because it is freestanding and self-contained, the 970 fits any van regardless of make or model, with no vehicle-specific mounting or plumbing tie-in. The full-size adult seat and latching lid make it usable day to day rather than as an emergency backup, and the ABS construction handles the temperature swings and vibration of life on the road.

A prismatic level indicator on the holding tank shows the fill level at a glance. When it is time to empty, the waste tank separates from the upper unit, and an extra-long pivoting spout with a vent control keeps the process clean.

FAQ's

Does the Dometic 970 fit any van conversion?

Yes. It is a freestanding, self-contained unit that requires no vehicle-specific mounting or plumbing connection. It works in any van build, RV, or boat regardless of make or model.

What are the dimensions?

387 mm (15.25") deep x 387 mm (15.25") high x 334 mm (13.13") wide.

How big is the waste tank?

5 gallons (18.9 L).

Does the flush need batteries or electrical power?

No. A manual hand pump pressurizes the freshwater chamber, then a push-button flush releases water into the bowl. No batteries, no electrical hookup, and no constant pumping while flushing. Holding the button longer releases more water, so you can vary the flush volume.

How many flushes before refilling?

The pressurized chamber is generally good for roughly four to five flushes before re-pumping, depending on how much water you use per flush.

What is it made of?

High-strength ABS plastic, with a smooth, easy-to-clean finish designed to withstand harsh and marine environments.

How much does it weigh?

Approximately 13 lb (5.9 kg) empty.

What colours is it available in?

Grey and Tan.

How do I know when the tank needs emptying?

A prismatic tank level indicator on the holding tank lets you check the fill level at a glance, without opening anything.

How do you empty it?

The waste tank separates from the upper unit for carrying and dumping. An extra-long pivoting discharge spout directs flow to reduce splash, and a vent control on the lower tank makes emptying smoother.

Is the seat full size?

Yes. The 970 series uses a full-size adult seat with a latching lid that stays secure while driving.
