Hey Dave,

We do have a direct replacement for your model Thetford, # TH35SE, is the exact replacement for you. Since you are wanting to move to a standard height I recommend # TH52SE that you mentioned. Dimensionally it is the exact same as your current besides being taller and standard height. The rough-in dimensions are the same so the install will be simple and fit like the original.

What kind of trailer are you replacing this in?

Hey Don, yes the Dometic 411 RV Toilet part #DMC74JF would be a direct replacement for the Thetford Aqua Magic VI as they both have the same rough in measurement. Is your Thetford giving you problems?

Hey Mike! The Thetford Aqua-Magic Style II Part-Timer RV Toilet item #TH35SE is going to be about as close of a replacement as you can get for your 42070 model. There is one measurement you're going to want to take to confirm it'll work.…

Hey Melanie. The reason you can't find a replacement for your GE ARC15AACBL2 15,000 btu air conditioner is because they phased them out. In 2025 all RV AC systems had to change over to a new coolant called R32. This was a EPA mandated decision.…

Hey Phil! Thanks for getting back to me with those measurements! We have a leaf spring that is an exact replacement but I am guessing it's the pricey one you referenced. It is the 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 4,400-lb Trailer Axles - 25-1/4"…

Hey Eric, thanks for the information! Your older GE ARC13AACBL2 with 410a refrigerant is not going to be compatible with any AC components that came out this year. Everything has the new R32 refrigerant now so it's made all the 410a systems and…
