Thetford Aqua-Magic Residence: 42169–42172 Toilet Parts

The Thetford Aqua-Magic Residence is a lightweight polypropylene RV toilet with a residential-size soft-close seat and single-pedal flush. It comes in white or bone, with high and low profiles. Its factory parts drawing has its own numbered callouts, and the current manufacturer sheet identifies specific service pieces for the pedal, water valve and bowl seal.

Compare the two Residence heights

Thetford lists 15¼ inches in overall width and 19¾ inches in depth for the Residence range. Check the available floor space and the flange-to-wall relationship. The manufacturer's dimension sheet shows front, side and plan views for both profiles.

Residence service-part identification

Thetford's November 2025 Residence drawing labels the main assemblies 1–12, with the flange seal listed separately. Although some components share numbers with Style II, use this Residence drawing to identify the exact service position on your own toilet.

Before removing or replacing the toilet

1. Identify the model and finish; distinguish the high and low base before ordering a foot pedal or base component.
2. Measure the toilet's installed space, including lid-opening clearance and water-line position.
3. Shut off the water and follow the maker's approved disconnection and flange-sealing method.
4. Use the manufacturer's numbered drawing to confirm the part and service steps, rather than selecting by external appearance alone.

The Residence is different from the ceramic/polypropylene Style II and Style Plus models. Compare the bowl material and overall dimensions if you are choosing a complete replacement.
