Clogged up tecma ez flush toilet on a 310 ec

gtyee · October 2016

My son's friend flushed a heavy duty paper towel and now toilet is clogged. Di I have to take the toilet off or any suggestions. What are the chance it is in the maceration valve?

Had a friend remove some "female hygiene" products from the head on his boat. He had to remove the fixture and fish them out by hand.

I think there might be a duck bill type of anti siphon valve at the bottom of the toilet that may have trapped the paper. You should have received a Techma parts catalogue with that boat (there was one in the owner information binder when I sold it to the guy you bought it from) and if so, it should have a page with an expended schematic that illustrates where to find that valve. I think the valve is attached in-line to the white waste hose at the bottom of the toilet. Good luck. Not fun!

While I've never had to clear a blockage on my boat head, I have seen twice now where the use of a plunger has worked very effectively - both times a gentle "plunge" once or twice worked. The duckbill valves are designed to prevent back flow and once the waste clears the duckbill valves, you are good to go - so to speak :-)

You need to be careful with pushing a blockage into your tank. It could end up as a blockage in your pump-out line. If it's just paper then no problem.
