Howdy,
Been RVing for many years (about 47). In our recent past ,say 6 or 8years we ave been using the Walex Bio-active holding tank stuff. We get this from Campers World and then they get us. We always pay more than we think this stuff is worth and are wondering if there are other less expense places to get stuff (no, we do not shop at WM, it personal).

What do you use and where is it available. Oh by the way we are on the road or at a park for many months each year. So it you know of something that works on a regular basis (not camping but a few weeks a year) you know where as we drain the tank every 8 to 10 days,that would be us.

TIA Tomman

It must be time to go, the suns out and I've got a full tank of diesel!
We have a granite fireplace hearth! Love to be a little different.

We use Happy Camper when boondocking, and the Geo Method when hooked up, and lots of water.

Been using Happy Camper for 10 years, I put it in the toilet as well as down the sinks and shower. Never had any odors since using this product.

I order the large container of powder from Amazon and it last a very long time.

I buy the orange colored, one shot baggie thingies, at WALMART. I believe they have a citric SCENT... not sure if they taste like an orange :B

Walex Porta-Pak in the black tank, Walex Elemonate in the Grey, and once in awhile Walex Commando. Since I service my tanks at home using a FloJet Waste Macerator pump I also Geo the tanks with detergent & Calgon powder. Never have tank odours and the monitors, though I don't pay much attention, seem to work as intended. :B

I use water and baking soda. On my final duble dump of the season I fill it with Dawn the night before

We've been using Bluestreak for the last 4 years. Self dispenses and works great...just have to refill the dispenser every now and then.

I use the original Campa-Chem (Thetford) blue stuff. I pour an 8 oz bottle in after every dump. Works for me. Never tasted it though.

I've heard they all tasted the same even if they smell different but have never tried it myself and won't. I'll take their word for it!

Some do have nicer color that others though...

If you are tasting the stuff, you are doing something very wrong. ๐Ÿ˜‰

All kidding aside, we use the Oxy enzyme stuff from WalMart. Not sure it does anything, but why not? At least it's nontoxic and biodegradable.

It makes a very poor glass of Koolaid, though.
