Congratulations!
…on your purchase of Thetford’s Electra Magic recirculating toilet, the most popular recirculating toilet in the world.
This unit is a 100% self-contained sanitation system which requires no pressure water connection or holding tank installation (an optional holding tank may be installed to increase total capacity). The Electra Magic is operated by a simple D.C. hookup, available in a 12-Volt or a 24-Volt model, and may be discharged directly into the sewer or into an optional holding tank.
Unique Filtration
Thetford’s unique filtration system puts an end to unpleasant clogging. The exclusive filter cone assures that only filtered fluid is delivered to the recirculating pump.
