Want to convert the head on my 31TE from saltwater flush to fresh water. Any Sugestions. It has a Jabsco manual pump flush.

We use our shower spray head to flush the head.... Ha Ha works great and is simple.

You can do this. My former 35te had the salt water flush manual toilet. We changed to electric and fresh water. Pulled the fresh water with a "T" off the head sink. Remember you have to avoid any back water feeding so get the right valve for that issue. We enjoyed the change over and it did stop the smell issue.

Hi all what type of valve would you use in that application? I'm thinking about using two separate tanks and just t the fill lines and vent lines any thoughts or suggestions.
