Air Head Fitting Day

Today we change our toilet type, from Thetford cassette to Air head compost. Despite doing our research and speaking to some very helpful boaters who have them fitted, I still feel nervous and a little distressed at the thought of throwing away a perfectly functional Thetford.
Too late to worry now, as Paul has turned up with his drill and a down to business look on his face. First we disconnect the water supply and then the power, ( no more flushing loo now Ali ) and with the removal of the old we are now fully committed compost toileteers.

Out with the old cassette loo, what a waste.

The dogs at this point were convinced that a long over due Yorkie flap was being installed.

Getting a little more tricky as we a hole in the lining for a new air vent.

And worse still, cutting a hole in the roof just doesn't feel right.

And here is the new throne, the vent pipe is not the most endearing of fittings, but doesn't show too much.

First impressions of the new loo are, simple and well built, slightly industrial look to it all, and I have to say, over priced at £ 800.00 plus delivery ( and poor packing see previous blog ) so somebody is being greedy along the line, may come down in price as volume goes up or more competition comes along. 

Well Ali due back on Wednesday, so with a bit of luck we will start moving again, still not sure where, but isn't that great! nowhere in particular to go, and loads of time to go there.

Bye for now,

Baz and soon Ali.
