Question

Can I convert my thetford c200cwe toilet to a c200s which draws water from the caravan supply

Answer

Hi\r\n\r\nIn theory you can. If the van is run off a pressure switch system it is fairly straight forward as you just fit a electric valve assembly and connect it to the switch on the toilet. If you van is fitted with a microswitch system then you need the toilet switch to open the electric valve and turn on the pump at the same time, this is possible but the wiring will need to be carried out by and experienced person. In both cases you would connect the electric valve to the flush pipe. Unless you really hate filling the flush water I would advise you dont try and do this.
