Dometic toilet issue

We have a foot flush toilet and when you flush water comes from the top valve right behind the seat. I was told it was the top anti syphon valve. Any one had any problems like this. How easy is it to replace that valve?

I suspect you had a blow-out of the toilet's vacuum breaker. Here's a line from an email I sent to
Diane Staman
Dometic Sanitation Corporation
330/439-5545

Fax 330/496-3097
diane.staman@dometic.com


"I had a blow-out of what appears from Dometic’s online diagrams to be the vacuum breaker (Item H in ‘Dometic RV 300-310-320 series toilets installation and operation owner's manual’."
Diana replied "Your toilet is still covered under warranty so I will send you a replacement vacuum breaker" and she did. Great service from Diane.

Easy? Was for me. Hardest part was getting my big melon head in position to see what I was doing!

Those folks were really helpful to me. I'm glad "it's fixed"!
