Has anyone replaced their Aria Deluxe in the half bath with a non-electric toilet. Ours is 6 years old now and continues to be unreliable. Im tired of fooling with it. Would a gravity toilet work just as well in the half bath?

Gravity toilet........needs to drop directly down into waste tank

Plus uses a Floor Flange with 3" opening

Biscuit, I believe it does.

Thetford Aria Deluxe has an electric bowl valve so ANY gravity Toilet
*Might have to use an adapter for floor flange ---depends on bolt hole alignments (aria are screwed to floor vs bolted to floor flange)

I prefer Thetford Toilets vs Dometic

I rebuilt our half bath toilet in our 2015 45b 2 years ago
(all new components) . It was fairly straightforward and easy. That being said a gravity dump would work(if 2017 still has nothing south toilet orientation

We replaced our toilet with the same company toilet only non-electric. It had the same floor plan. It worked fine for at least 2 years and the foot petal cable broke. That was 2 years ago the cable was a quick, cheap and easy fix. We also bought an extra cable to have on hand. The electric toilet broke every 6 months and the parts were stupid expensive. For awhile there, the electric was like a portable toilet. Also the non-electric was more expensive. Go figure. (But well worth it)

I've had 2 of the same toilets in two 45Bs over a span of ~ 7 years and never a problem with either one that I remember.

Something wrong that can be fixed, I'm sure.
