The Raritan Engineering Marine Elegance 230HF012 is a 12V electric marine toilet featuring a tall angled-back vitreous china bowl, designed for use with onboard pressurized fresh water systems. Built for boaters who demand residential-style comfort in a compact, marine-grade package, this unit delivers quiet, reliable performance with minimal maintenance requirements.
Vortex-Vac Flushing Technology:
At the heart of the 230HF012 is Raritan's proprietary Vortex-Vac flush system, which generates an on-demand instantaneous internal vacuum—eliminating the need for external vacuum pumps, tanks, foot pedals, and other mechanical components that are prone to failure. The result is a simpler, lower-maintenance installation with significant cost savings. Vortex-Vac is also among the quietest and most water-efficient flushing systems in its class, helping to extend the usable capacity of your holding tank. The built-in discharge pump is capable of moving waste 10 feet vertically and 100 feet horizontally.
