Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Tecma Nano different from standard RV toilets?
The Tecma Nano is an electric macerating toilet designed for compact spaces. Unlike gravity or foot-pedal RV toilets, it uses a powered turbine macerator to pump waste to the holding tank, allowing for flexible installation and reduced space requirements.
Is this toilet suitable for small RV bathrooms?
Yes. The Nano is specifically designed for tight installations and is ideal for RVs or boats where space, depth, or headroom is limited.
Does the Tecma Nano require electrical power?
Yes. This is an electric toilet and requires DC power. Voltage options vary by model, so it’s important to verify whether your system is 12-volt or 24-volt before ordering.
Can this toilet use raw water instead of fresh water?
Yes. The Tecma Nano can be configured for raw water or pressure fresh water flushing, depending on the flush kit and installation setup.
Does it connect directly to the black tank?
Yes. The built-in macerator pumps waste directly into the black holding tank. No external vacuum pump or gravity drop is required.
Is a flush control panel included?
Flush control panels vary by configuration. Some installations reuse an existing Tecma control panel, while others may require a compatible panel designed for Nano systems.
