Toilet water will not go down how do you unblock. Can we use a unblocker
 
Welcome to Fun..(y)


Not sure if your MH has a black tank or a cassette to hold toilet contents but perhaps whichever it has may be full and need emptying?
 

Welcome​

Concorde Charisma​

Marine toilet

This is a fixed toilet that is connected to a fixed on-board waste tank (often called a black tank) in the motorhome. The water for flushing is usually from the vehicles main onboard freshwater tank. As the waste tank is fixed you have to drive to a ground level disposal point for emptying which is accomplished by opening a valve and allowing the contents to drain out. This type of toilet normally has the largest capacity waste tank and is often to be found in our larger motorhomes such as many of the larger Concorde's.

There are a number of variations of marine toilets, when fitted to Concorde Motorhomes, they have a proper china bowl (always a favorite) and a macerator to liquidize the waste. The maceration helps the waste to flow away more easily even through small diameter pipes. Some people even choose to have a pump fitted to the waste outlet so this can be pumped out of the tank rather than left to flow by gravity. The waste tank generally has some method of flushing it out, so as to remove all traces of waste. This is particular desirable before preparing the vehicle for periods out of use.

If this type of toilet sounds so great, why doesn't every vehicle have one of these. Well, three things really; firstly cost, they are a lot more money than a cassette toilet. Secondly, weight, the toilet weights more, they need a bigger water tank and they need a large holding tank. Thirdly, you usually have to take you whole vehicle to the dump point (not just the holding tank) so if you park up somewhere, put down your levelling jacks put up you large awing and safari/privacy room for a three month stay - you'll have have to move you motorhome when the loo holding tank is full.

If you’ve got a macerator toilet that is blocked and your toilet pan is not emptying then chances are (assuming you’ve not put anything other than pee, poop and paper down it) that a lump of solid matter has jammed in the pipe before the macerator blades, so is not being chopped up and pumped away.

We had this happen once

To move the blockage we used the handle of an old plastic spatula (without the macerator running)

After a few prods the solid lump hit the macerator and the blockage was cleared
 
Very well put!

'Moon Rock Syndrome'? More fibre in the diet helps, then you can use the spatula for stirring the porridge ... [after washing it, and certainly before licking it ...] :giggle: (y)

No need to worry about me! I'm like the Chinese National Railway Stock 1910; way beyond redemption ... But very happy in my own little world, where only happy thoughts are allowed, and where the pills have to be taken twice daily to stay clear of the medics ... (y)🤞
