circuito dell'acqua per gli sciacquoni
"Head" qui va inteso in senso idraulico come "prevalenza", "pressione". Probabilmente si riferisce al fatto che di solito gli sciacquoni funzionano a gravità. Tuttavia io tradurrei così, vedi anche la reference, magari è un po' macchinoso ma è chiaro.

impianti toilette
Head è il locale wc delle barche.In effetti il testo verso il fondo recita:
"Shut off the TOILET SYSTEM before servicing."
Do not leave the yacht with the HEAD SYSTEM circuit breakers ON.
benissimo quanto scrive Maria Rosa "impianto WC". Se necessario essere più "leggeri" impianto toilette.
