Happy Camper holding tank treatment

[Spearfisherman7]

After over 10 years of camping and fighting holding tank odors, and trying many different methods and products, I finally found something that actually does what it says. Happy Camper holding tank treatment. My grey water smell wheat from horrible, make you want to puke bad, to absolutely no smell whatsoever in one treatment. Black water wasn't quite as bad but it is pretty close to odor free also.

Tried them all and this is what I found to be even better than Happy Camper. And IMHO the 'only' one that actually works.

And it worked even in the incredible heat of a Florida summer where I had no hookups and full black tank between dumping.

Note the words 'powerful odor control' on the label.

There are two different types of this holding tank chems on the same shelf by the same company.

The one that states on the label.
"powerful odor control" and "breaks down waste" is the ONE to buy.



As far as your gray tank no need to use black tank treatment. Just pour a quart of any lemon cleaner into tank every other dump or so.

I have to agree, Happy Camper is a very good product, but the source of the bad smells from your tanks may be a result of insufficient flushing, as there may still be debris residing in the tanks not getting flushed out. Technically if the tanks are flushed thoroughly, no waste tank product should be required, although at a minimum it is not a bad idea to put some dish or laundry detergent in the tanks from time to time. What I have found with Happy Camper that separates it from the other similar products we used, is it does an excellent job of breaking up the solids into smaller bits, more easily flushed out and it is inexpensive.
