Follow up to "Blank tanl Odor Solution"
Back in mid April I posted about the horrid smell when vent fans were on and when dumping the tanks in our new to us RV. Following suggestions found here and after replacing the ball valve seal I solved the problem.
Today was the first time I had a chance to dump and flush the tanks. Using my Sewer Solution so I could reach the clean out and the Tornado flush system, I now have a very, very clean Black Tank and a pretty darn clean Grey Tank. During the dumping processes, no order, after flushing, even with the vent fans on and the ball valve open no odor. Good think I didn't try to do this at a campground dump, it took about an hour and a half.
It is amazing what in the case amounted to a lot of water can do to a black tank. There wasn't any POP as I had feared but there was a lot of crud.
We leave Sunday or Monday for a couple of weeks without the embarrassment of that horrible odor when dumping.
Thanks again to all of you.
