Back in Stock: The Thetford Sani-Con Turbo 700 Replacement Pump (97518)
If you've been hunting for a replacement pump for your Thetford Sani-Con Turbo 700, you already know the story. Sold out here, backordered there, "check back later" everywhere. Good news: we finally have the Thetford 97518 Sani-Con Turbo 700 Pump Replacement with Tank Housing on the shelf and ready to ship.
Why this part matters
The Sani-Con Turbo is the macerator pump system that empties your RV's waste tanks. When the pump quits, you're stuck: no emptying the tanks, and no camping until it's fixed. That's why a sold-out replacement pump hurts so much.
What you get
The 97518 is a genuine Thetford replacement pump that comes with the tank housing, so you're replacing the whole assembly, not just a motor.
- Run-tested and water-tested before it leaves the factory
- Made in USA
- 1-year limited warranty
- Includes the tank housing for a simpler swap
Signs it's time to replace your pump
- The motor hums or clicks but nothing moves
- Leaks around the pump or housing
- Emptying the tank takes much longer than it used to
- The pump won't turn on at all, and you've already checked the fuse and wiring
Not sure the pump is the problem? Contact us with your model and what it's doing, and we'll help you sort it out before you buy.
Price and shipping
The 97518 is $339.99, down from $432.99. That's a savings of $93. Order before 1 pm EST and it ships the same day.
This pump has been hard to come by, and we don't know when the next shipment will arrive. If your Sani-Con Turbo 700 is on its last legs, or you want a spare before your next trip, now's the time.
