Jim,
I do have a problem in my coach. Since I did not buy it new, I do not know how it was
cared for in the first 10 years. In the hot weather, I notice this mainly while on the
road (as opposed to be camped for several days) an odor from what smells like the black
tank, toilet. My toilet is in a separate room in the bath. I keep water in the toilet,
and the seal is good to not leak out during the day's drive. I have tried some of the
commercial holding tank stuff, doubling the dose. I have tried Tide Laundry soap and lots
of water for a drive. Better but still the odor is there. Where it is coming from I cannot
tell either as the vent tube is hidden in the wall, but from the top, it appears to be
open. Any suggestions as to cleaning and de-odorizing. I will try the Pine sol, I have not
used it yet.
This is not my first RV, but probably the 7-8th? Never had this problem before, I
usually keep one of the commercial tank de-odorizes in if parked for a while, or, like you
say, nothing, just flush out every couple of days if the weather is not real hot.. over
80.
