Owners will value that these toilets are virtually maintenance-free, provide quiet and fast flush cycles with odor-free use, and come with control panels that allow for water conservation. Both toilets are available in 12 or 24V models and install easily.<\/p>\n<p>The extra-low-profile Nano is ideal for the tightest of spaces. Elegant in design and remarkably efficient, the toilet is built of high-quality white ceramic that lends itself to any marine d\u00e9cor. Operation is virtually silent.<\/p>\n<p>This unit is completely self-contained with a clog-resistant turbine; during installation, there is no need to accommodate a vacuum pump or replace gaskets or seals. Its low power consumption and user-controlled water flow of only 0.1\u20130.7 gallons per flush will save precious on-board resources. Less than 39 pounds, the Nano is only 18.2&#8243; L x 14.8&#8243; W x<br \/>\n11.8&#8243; H and easily installed on a step base.<\/p>\n<p>With its sleek, modern design and advanced technology, the Compass Short is an alternative version of Thetford&#8217;s popular EasyFit toilet. Crafted of superior white ceramic to the highest standards, it features a strong but nearly soundless macerator and reliable, odor-free operation. As versatile as it is elegant, the Compass Short can be installed against a flat or angled wall surface.<\/p>\n<p>Highly efficient, the unit has a low electricity draw. Like the Nano, it needs only 0.1-0.7 gallons of water per flush, easily changed by the user via the control panel. The Compass Short is a mere 19.1&#8243; L x 14.4&#8243; W x 14.4&#8243; H and weighs 56 pounds.<\/p>\n<p>Headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Thetford is the world&#8217;s leading supplier of sanitation and refrigeration products for the marine, RV and heavy-duty truck industries. It is a privately-held company with seven manufacturing facilities in four nations.<\/p>\n<p>Thetford subsidiaries include Norcold of Sidney, Ohio, America&#8217;s leading manufacturer of gas-absorption and AC\/DC refrigerator\/freezers for the RV, marine and truck markets; Tecma, an Italy-based maker of fine-china toilets and powerful waste-transfer systems; and Thetford Europe, which manufactures Thetford-brand high-quality cooking and heating appliances, as well as accessories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Responding to market demand for space-saving toilets, Thetford Marine introduces the Nano and Compass Short models to its extensive Tecma lineup.
