Gloucester , MA (August 24, 2009) - Xylem-Jabsco (www.jabsco.com), a recognized leader in marine toilets and waste systems, is proud to introduce the new Lite Flush electric toilet. Lite Flush is a new stylish low power-consuming marine electric toilet, designed specifically to replace the existing Jabsco Manual Toilet. The marine head features the same footprint, fixing points and hose attachments as the Manual Toilet making installation quick and easy.

The Lite Flush electric toilet is compact and light weight (no heavier than the manual toilet at 21 lbs.), features a plastic outer casing, ceramic bowl and a "slow close" seat and lid. It is fitted with a new quiet and efficient flush pump which has a large clearance to help prevent blockages. The low water usage (about a quart per flush) reduces the need for a large holding tank.

The Lite Flush electric toilet is available with either a foot switch (left or right fitting) or a wall mounted control panel in both 12 and 24 volt models.

The Lite Flush electric toilet is available now at a MSRP of $649.99. Contact your local marine retail store or distributor for more information, or visit us at www.jabsco.com.
