How Does HocanFlo's FLO-MT160 Handle Different Types of Waste?
The FLO-MT160 from HocanFlo is designed to handle different types of waste effectively.
The waste maceration capabilities of the toilet are a key factor in its waste-handling ability. The motor's integrated blades are designed to break down both toilet paper and feces into smaller pieces. This process is efficient enough to handle normal human waste and the type of toilet paper typically used in RVs and boats. The macerated waste is then more easily pumped out through the built-in pump system.
For solid waste, the blades work to break it down into a consistency that can flow through the plumbing. This prevents large clumps from clogging the narrow pipes commonly found in RV and marine plumbing systems. The maceration also helps to reduce the volume of the solid waste, allowing for more efficient storage and disposal.
In the case of toilet paper, the FLO-MT160 is designed to handle single-ply and some thicker varieties. The maceration process shreds the paper into small fragments that can be flushed away without causing blockages. However, it is recommended to use toilet paper that is specifically designed for marine and RV use, as these are more likely to dissolve quickly and be processed smoothly by the toilet.
The pump system of the FLO-MT160 is also designed to handle the macerated waste. It can vertically lift sewage up to 4 meters and horizontally move it 40 meters, ensuring that the waste is transported to the waste tank or disposal point without any issues. The pump is capable of handling the semi-liquid mixture of macerated waste and water, maintaining a steady flow and preventing backups.
In addition, the FLO-MT160's waste-handling system is designed to be hygienic. The maceration and pumping process helps to minimize the buildup of waste and bacteria in the toilet and plumbing system. This reduces the risk of unpleasant odors and the spread of germs, creating a more pleasant and healthy onboard environment.
Overall, the FLO-MT160's combination of waste maceration and a powerful pump system makes it well-suited to handle the various types of waste generated in RV and marine settings, providing a reliable and efficient waste management solution.
