What You’ll Need

Your Nautilus Filter kit includes all essential components:

  • Nautilus holding tank vent filter unit
  • Hose barb fittings (5/8” and 3/4”)
  • Stainless steel hose clamps
  • Mounting screws
  • Carbon filtration system (pre-installed)

Everything is engineered for quick installation without additional parts.


Step-by-Step Installation Instructions

1. Locate the Vent Hose

Identify the holding tank vent line on your boat. This is the hose that allows gases to escape from the tank.


2. Choose the Installation Location

  • Install the filter in-line with the vent hose
  • Position it in an accessible area for future maintenance
  • Ideally mount it above the tank level to prevent fluid buildup

3. Cut the Vent Hose

Using a hose cutter or knife:

  • Cut the vent hose at your chosen installation point
  • Ensure clean, even cuts for a tight seal

4. Attach the Filter

  • Insert the Nautilus filter between the two hose ends
  • Use the correct hose barb size (5/8” or 3/4”)
  • Secure each side using the included hose clamps

👉 Important: Do not overtighten clamps with power tools, as this can damage fittings.


5. Mount the Filter

  • Secure the unit using the provided screws
  • Ensure it is stable and properly supported
  • The filter can be mounted horizontally or vertically

6. Final Check

  • Ensure all connections are tight
  • Confirm there are no kinks or low spots in the hose
  • Test airflow by flushing the system

Installation Tips for Best Performance

  • Avoid low points in the hose where liquid can collect
  • Install away from heat sources and moving parts
  • Keep the filter accessible for easy carbon refills
  • Ensure proper airflow to maximize odor elimination

Proper installation ensures optimal performance and long-lasting odor control.
