This unique configuration enables fluid flow in one direction while obstructing reverse flow, akin to the behaviour of a duck's bill when feeding.

It starts with determining what the problem is. If you have a manual flushing head like or one of the electric flushing types, you have a joker valve. Familiar brands are Raritan and Jabsco. The joker valve is a small one-way valve that lets water and (other stuff) pass through it. The unique shape keeps any of that material from coming back the op...
Taking this apart is not hard, and I typically have to get psyched up for having to do this work. The reality is you are going to get a little bit of toilet water on you. The first thing you want to do is look at the manual for your head and see where the joker valves are located. Below are a few links to manuals of the popular models as well as a ...

In most cases, you can just pull them with your hands and remove them.

You can also see in the photo above that one of th...
Depending on your boat, this discharge line may go straight overboard. It may go to a holding tank or like in our case, go to a waste treatment unit (ElectroScan). The Electrocscanis a Marine Sanitation Device (MSD) model that treats waste for proper discharge. It is as good if not better than most municipalities in the United States. Once processe...
When you remove the joker valve, inspect it to see if it is worn and not sealing back up. In the photo, you can see a new joker valve next to an old worn out joker valve. This valve was in use for 3 years with 2 adults and 2 children living on the boat. It has seen a pretty high volume of flushes. For what it is worth, we rarely flush paper down th...
The assembly is actually the easiest part. Ensure you correctly install the valves. A good reminder is that the thin side should face the direction of the flow. That is about it. In our case, we have one joker valve in the black hose (pictured). The first one is on the input side of this hose where it connects to the macerator pump. The other is ri...
In the end, this is not a difficult job, and you can almost always do it yourself to save money. Joker valves are available on Amazon but, I prefer to order these from the manufacturer. We keep a few extra on board because in more than one occasion Raritan has had them on back order, so we keep a few spares. They run about $30 or so. One last remin...

A duckbill valve is a check valve, usually manufactured from rubber or synthetic elastomer, and has two or more flaps, usually shaped like the beak of a duck. [1] It is commonly used in medical applications to prevent contamination due to backflow.
Jun 13, 2024 · Inspired by nature, the duckbill valve is a simple check or one-way valve that is formed from a flexible material such as rubber or some other elastic material. Typically, the two halves form a beak-like appendage that allows a fluid to flow easily in one direction.
