Fresh Head – The First Manual Marine Toilet to Flush with Pressurized Freshwater

The Raritan Fresh Head redefines what’s possible in manual marine toilets by introducing a groundbreaking feature: the ability to flush using pressurized freshwater, not raw seawater. Designed for boaters who value cleanliness, reliability, and simplicity, this compact unit combines the trusted performance of a diaphragm pump with the hygiene benefits of freshwater flushing—without requiring complex plumbing workarounds.

Traditional manual toilets that use seawater often introduce odors and discoloration caused by bacteria, algae, and decaying organisms left behind in the rim and bowl. With the Fresh Head, those concerns are eliminated. The integrated freshwater control valve allows you to wet the bowl before use or flush after use—precisely when and how much you want—delivering clean, odor-free performance every time.

Its telescoping diaphragm pump handle offers easy, ergonomic operation, even in tight head compartments. The efficient pump design allows users to fully evacuate the bowl in just a few strokes, while requiring far less effort than traditional piston pumps. A locking mechanism on the pump prevents backflow and helps secure the bowl when underway, making it a smart choice for vessels operating in rough water conditions.

The full-size joker valve ensures better waste handling with reduced risk of clogging, especially when used with marine-safe toilet paper. The toilet base is engineered to match the footprint of common manual toilets, making it ideal for direct replacements or new DIY installations. A slow-close seat is included, featuring stabilizing stops that help prevent shifting in heavy seas.

The Fresh Head is the ultimate blend of modern hygiene, classic manual operation, and boater-friendly engineering—perfect for cruisers who want the benefits of freshwater flushing without sacrificing the reliability of a manual toilet system.
