I spoke with a tech, at Newell, who was working on a Microphor air toilet. He stated the parts are still available for these toilets, but the china bowl is not. If you break a bowl you will have to replace the whole toilet with something new. A new toilet would probably have a different footprint so the flooring may be effected too. Newell no longer installs the Microphor toilets. I have two LF-210 toilets in my coach and they were common from the mid 90s into the 2000s in Newells, Prevosts and I believe Bluebirds. If some one finds a salvaged LF-210 china toilet bowl in good shape it would be worth grabbing if the price is right.
If some one needs one there is a service manual already posted in the documentation section under plumbing.

Thanks for the heads up Steve. It's always good to know these things as early as possible.

Tom,
Corey (Gondolaguy) on WAGU replaced his Microphor air flush toilet a while back. I'd bet he would be glad to get rid of it if he didn't throw it away. He's no fan of the Microphor air flush toilet and may have taken his frustrations out on it with a sledge hammer

Chuck is right. Now is when we are going to start seeing them as people start redoing their older Newells, Prevost & Bluebirds. Got to get one before it gets destroyed. Keep a keen eye out.
If the group can find one, I would volunteer to warehouse it if the finder has no room.
