We are installing a central black water incinerator system that will handle the waste for two toilets in our mobile home. The waste will enter into a mascerator, pump to a holding tank, and then pump to the in incinerator. The first toilet is right above the mascerator which is good, but the other toilet is a 60' run from the other end of the house. The rest of the grey water in the house runs to a separate grey water system. Is the run from the second toilet (a 1.6 flush) going to be enough water to keep the line from clogging? If not, how can we make this work? We are trying not to send too much water to the incinerator, but if we have to we will.

Yes, it'll be fine if you keep the pipe sloped properly.

proper slope = 15" drop at 60' @ 1/4" per foot

Thanks, would using a 1.3 or .8 toilet work?
