Don't know where you are, but Everflo is a major brand, they have several types. It should be installed where it is protected from the elements. And then all plumbing ought to have a pressure check, because if it's old plumbing, new high pressure might be too much for it.
Otherwise, why not just use a bucket to flush the whole thing? A bucket that holds 11 to 13 quarts ought to do it. You can save a lot of water by peeing into containers and decanting onto compost pile.
