HOLDING
TANK
CARE
- Since holding tanks
don't
rely on any sophisticated mechanical devices for
their operation, they are virtually trouble free. The most common problem is
also an unpleasant
one-
clogging. You can minimize·the chances
of
clogging
by
keeping the following considerations in mind:
Keep
the
black water tank knife valve closed. Fill tank to at
least
3/4
full before draining.
Be
sure to cover the tank
bottom with water after draining:
. Use only toilet tissue formulated for use in septic tank or RV
sanitation systems.
Keep both knife valves closed and locked, and the drain
cap
tightly in place when using the system on the road.
Use only cleaners that are approved for use in septic tank or
RV
sanitation ,systems.
Use a special holding tank deodorant chemical
approvedlor
septic tank systerp.s in
the
black water holding tank. These
. chemicals aid the breakdown
of
solid wastes and make the
system much more pleasant to use.
,
Do
not
put facial tissue, paper, ethylene glycol-based or
other automotive antifreeze, sanitary
napkin~
or household
toilet cleaners in the holding tanks.
Do not put anything solid in either tank that could scratchor
puncture the tank.
