    Potty Training: Toilet Teardown! Thetford toilet seal replacement | Host Truck Camper |E14

    07/08/2021
    Fixes & Maintenance, Season 0 – Before Full-time

    Ok, not the most glamorous of jobs, but it was fairly simple to do. So don’t fret if your toilet isn’t holding water to keep the seal from drying out…. Come along for our version of Dirty Jobs!

    The removal of the toilet to get at the source of the problem wasn’t too bad. Just make sure to have a plastic garbage bag or something to stuff in the opening or else you will have a very interesting bouquet in our camper!

    Products we’ve purchased & mentioned in the video:

    As mentioned in the video, this is typically the first thing to go if you’re continuing to have smells periodically from your kitchen or bathroom sink. Sometimes removing and rinsing out can resolve the problem. If not, these are pretty cheap (a good idea to have in your spare parts kit?)
    This is the kit we purchased to replace the rubber seal around the toilet. This was *not* easy to figure out what version – but this one worked. Thetford 34117 kit.
