Gathering some intel on good interwebz sources for vacuflush parts. We burned out one of the pumps in our boat and might as well rebuild the whole thing while it’s out. At least it’s the easy one to get to. My boat has the s pump style I believe?
Not to hijack the thread as i think it is relevant, was wondering if anyone has installed knock off duck bills in their vacuflush systems, and what results they have had. There are a lot of them out there on ebay and like everything, they are coming from China. Because they are significantly cheaper than the Dometic brand, it is tempting to try.
I ordered these and they have been working just fine. iFJF Duckbill Valve Kit Replace for Dometic 385310076 Compatible for Sealand Vacuum Generators S and T Series Pumps S115A, S12, 52A, S32, T12, T24, and T32 1-1/2 -2 Pair https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B081STM...abc_A5945778MC4DP78KHBQC?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I'm not sure why, the Dometic ones aren't all that expensive to begin with, and it's not something you want to have fail sooner than normal.
A lot of RV's and travel trailers have vacuflush systems. I've had good luck shopping for parts online at Dyer's; Dyers RV Parts and Accessories (dyersonline.com)

Then don't. As i said, they've been working good for me....and I had a few extra bucks to have a beer afterwards.
