sshortcircuit Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 One of the best extras I have fitted,no stinky chemicals to use. Have been unaware of odours when in use and the fan is the same as that in a laptop,so not noisy. Edit. I do not have ears or a nose like a bloodhounds' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Uzzell Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 sshortcircuit - 2016-04-13 3:13 PM ...the fan is the same as that in a laptop,so not noisy. Three different fan units are used for leisure-vehicle SOG systems according to the particular installation involved. All of the fans are pretty quiet, but as should be evident from the following links none of them resemble the type of fan used in PCs and laptops. The SOG fans need tor be able to draw air effectively through a narrow diameter hose that may be a couple of metres in length, and to cope with smelly, contaminated wet air being drawn through them. (Hopefully neither of those requirements will be necessary with a PC/laptop. ;-) ) http://www.outdoorbits.com/sog-replacement-fan-motor-p-76.html http://www.outdoorbits.com/sog-replacement-fan-p-2784.html http://www.outdoorbits.com/sog-replacement-roof-fan-p-2786.html Thetford’s own cassette ventilation system for the C250/C260 range of toilets does appear to use a conventional ‘computer’ fan-unit http://www.bradtech.ltd.uk/products/Ventilator-Fan-for-C250-Toilet-T50755.html The Thetford fan-unit is fitted in a compartment directly below the cassette’s vent-valve and exhausts through the leisure-vehicle’s floor. Reports suggest that its ‘suck’ capability is significantly inferior to the SOG fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starvin marvin Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 lennyhb - 2016-04-13 11:52 AM starvin marvin - 2016-04-04 4:42 PM but as an aside I have noticed that these are becoming less popular than a few years back. . Don't know why you say that, they are standard or an option on most German vans. Only thing I can think of is you are not crawling under vans or getting on the roof to check. Modern SOG's are either roof or underfloor vented. :D Wouldn't be without a SOG, don't like the dangerous chemicals at all, the smell is dreadful and gives me large sneezing belts, much prefer the smell of my own poo. :-D You're dead right in your assumption, what I've seen, fortunately, is less m/h's with those bits of kit screwed to the/s of the bog door.Also seen less of folks tipping cassettes with that little green plastic thingy on it with a bit of string attached. With regard to your poo, please keep the stink to yourself unless of course yours smells of roses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
