When draining, I like dumping part into the black tank, part in the grey tank, which helps on odor control.
I have been told that if you use chemicals in the black tank (not the geo method) that you should not put bleach in the tank. The bleach kills the enzymes in the chemicals and tank and they no longer do their job of breaking down the waste.
I'm not a chemist, so I don't really know if this is true, but it is what I've been told........
I would agree with that assessment. Putting a bleach solution in the black tank would kill the bacteria that are necessary to break the waste down. I never put any sort of chemical in the black tank, not even deodorizer. There is never any unpleasant smell just leaving the tank alone and the bacteria to do their job.
