I am replacing my Jabasco manual heads in my Hunter 466t with pressurized electric heads. I have looked at Jabasco and Raritan electrics and someone else just suggested I consider the Tecma Easy fit electric. Supposedly ultra quiet. I am looking for a sturdy, reliable unit with as quite as operation as possible.

Any recommendations from experience?

Rgds,
Roger

I've got Vacuflushes and they're very quiet. There's a quick suction sound as they pull the waste down, followed by about ten seconds of muffled thunkathunka as the vacuum generator recharges. No complaints.

Thanks for that. I had vacuflushes on my last boat and prefer to go with electrics this time. Hoping for some reports from other owners on which they are using and results.

Electric with mascerators

Thanks for that. I had vacuflushes on my last boat and prefer to go with electrics this time. Hoping for some reports from other owners on which they are using and results.
My 49 was fitted with the jabsco electrics with built in mascerators.
They work perfectly, and never any issues.

I don't like vacu flush heads, as they are considerably more complicated.
There is a rotating flap unit which tends to jam up periodically.
On the Jabsco very little to go wrong

Thx for that. How is the loudness? Also do you have the pressurized fresh water version?

I fitted raritans and am happy enough with them, but my friend fitted dometic's and they are MUCH quieter and have a soft close lid

We use Jabsco and have had no problems the last two years in the south Pacific.
