Quality You Can Trust
Keep your off-grid setup clean, compliant, and comfortable. Explore our premium range of 12V macerator pumps and fixed toilets, engineered specifically for New Zealand campervans, boats, and remote baches. The smart choice for reliable waste management and self-containment certification.
Yes, our range of fixed cassette and macerator toilets is designed to meet the latest NZS 5465:2001 standards and the 2023/24 legislative amendments. Under the new ‘Green Warrant’ regulations, a toilet must be permanently fixed to the vehicle to qualify for self-containment. Our Challenger fixed cassette toilets and built-in macerator systems are the ideal solution for Kiwis looking to ensure their motorhome or caravan remains fully compliant for freedom camping.
Surprisingly little. While a 12V electric flush or macerator toilet might draw between 10 and 20 Amps during operation, the flush cycle only lasts for a few seconds. In terms of total battery capacity, the daily draw is negligible, usually less than 1 Amp-hour (Ah) per day for two people. This makes them perfectly suited for off-grid solar setups where managing battery storage is a priority.
It depends on the specific model, but our powerful 600W macerator systems can typically pump waste up to 7–9 metres vertically or up to 70–90 metres horizontally. This impressive range allows you to install a toilet in a basement, a tiny home, or a sleepout that is situated well away from (or below) your main sewer line or septic tank.
For permanent installations in a residential setting (like a basement renovation or a tiny home), we recommend using a registered plumber. This ensures the system complies with the NZ Building Code, specifically regarding venting and discharge pipework. For RV and Marine installations, many DIYers handle the install themselves, but we always suggest consulting a professional to ensure your waste management system is reliable and leak-free.
