It is an inverter charger. So far working good. If I can float it another year since we just got the boat and bleeding money getting it set up including a new davit crane, I’ll wait it out. Then yes, I love the Victron product. Thank you

Ok I’ll look into that. Thank you for the helpful info too! As far as blowing air in, I now can blow air in but as soon as I took my mouth off the hose it came right back out as expected due the reasons you stated. So at least I now have proof no blocked vent as it was before.

Very close to this one from Vetus. Mine does NOT have the bell shape at base and whatever is inside there. Mine is just straight to the flange, with a similar long radius.

I’m away from boat till Sunday night so I can’t get a picture. But in my search I have seen a similar fitting from Vetus. Let me see if I can get a picture of it on here.

Interesting. I’ll have to get the true dimensions to compare.

Ok. I’m searching for replacement tank mounted fitting that is same fit so I don’t have to come up with a big project to start from scratch. This fitting on my holding tank has a base flange approx 2 1/2” with four holes. It mates to what looks like a permanently installed base on tank that has...

Ok I didn’t know. And I assume that includes bronze and stainless then? I only ask because I think the vent fitting on the tank is stainless, and the thru hull is either stainless or chrome over something. Thank you

I have plastic fittings that would work but was concerned odor would permeate through cheap plastic sooner than brass. The fitting replacement I am trying to find right now. But would prefer it was the same so as not to make a bigger project

Fresh water

Thanks for the info Peggie. I temporarily re installed the filter as I had to leave out of town for rest of week. But next week when I return home I plan to remove the filter, and if the hose is not permeated thru on smells, check if it is long enough to reach the fitting. If it is not, I can...

Luckily my toilets use freshwater not seawater. I’m checking on the hoses next for smell and see if I need to replace them or not.

Update: Yesterday late afternoon I took the hose off the fitting. I could blow out with no problem, so entire length of hose was fine. I took a screwdriver and probed into fitting. It barely was in before hitting a block. I rotated and dug out some of the blockade. Looked like old wood dust...

I’ve been doing the “paper towel wipe test” on the hoses an old timer told me to try. On my previous boat I could smell a little on hose between one of the vacuum generators and holding tank. This one so far is not smelling when I check the hoses, which look really clean like new. I’ll remove...

My apologies, I should have included that info. New to me 2007 Jefferson 52 Pilothouse. Holding tank is between the two cabins, dead centerline, under companionway. Would you recommend before I removed the fitting from the tank to pull the hose off and try a coat hangar going down? It’s a...

The vent fitting not particularly easy to get to. But for maintenance purposes I can access the tank fittings and line connections. My plan is to remove the filter. But first thing I need to find out if not being to blow air into tank via vent line is causing my issue. I think I should be able...

I have started getting holding tank, smells inside the boat over the last few days, I’m sure, because the two heads were being used while the boat was being delivered to its new home. I am suspicious of the vent line. Can anyone tell me if I disconnect the line from the through hall? Should I be...

Apparently whatever that fuse ties together on the AC board tells it there is AC power available and to wake up and do it’s job.

No they did not, unfortunately.

Can anyone tell me if Ihook up gauges to a split unit with R22 freon, in Florida with say around 92 degree temperature, what should my low and high pressures be? I ask because one of four units the compressor is loud almost shrieking kind of sound. I suspect it is over pressurized and Would like...

Update, after talking to Xantrex tech support it sounded like the AC board had problem seeing the AC incoming voltage. He said it was expensive piece to replace, maybe consider spending money on new. Since at that point I had nothing to loose, and those fuses were in my mind, I shut power off...

Thank you guys, I will pick up a can of that pain as well as another one that was recommended.

Has anyone found a close match to Westerbeke red color? I have a 2007 that I am replacing one of the injector lines on and assuming the new one will not be painted I am looking for red spray paint. Was preferring not to pay $60 for a can from Westerbeke. Thanks

Thank you, I’ll check with them and see if they can suggest anything over the phone to check for

The invert unction seems to be working fine. The AC input is good. It is when in charge mode the unit not working except intermittently. It is a freedom 30 mode on xantrex. Thank you

There is AC on the AC input, checked by meter. Are there any internal fuses? There is a small bag of small glass fuses previous owner left ziptied to one of the dc battery cables going to inverter. I was also going to try disconnecting battery to it, and AC input off and leave it totally...
