What Chemicals REALLY Do in Your RV Tanks

In our opinion, there is not one chemical that is currently on the market that truly cleans the tanks and the sensors as they all advertise. This is blatant false advertising, but instead of suing each and every chemical company, we are going to give you the facts about what chemicals really do in your black tanks.

Please remember, that we use fiber-optic cameras with our RV holding tank service and we can see these dirty tanks and sensors as they come in for service.

Every black tank chemical company advertises that their product breaks down, or liquefies waste. Well, that is exactly what they do. They create a sludge or a thick pancake like batter in the black tank and make it harder to get it out of the tank. In other words, these chemicals make a big mess in your tanks.

Then, when you pull your slider valve handles to dump your black tank , only about 80% of the sludge will discharge, leaving the other 20% to start coating the inside walls of the tank and the sensors. This is why 70% of the 8 million RVer's in this country are having sensor misreading problems. Of course the sensor is reading dirty, because the inside of the tank is dirty.

So you go back to the RV dealer and get some different chemical to try and solve the problems the other chemical caused! You buy a different brand and hope you will have better luck.....not so! These chemical companies have you coming and going. It sounds more like the tobacco industry; they sell you a product that causes a problem and then hook you on the product for more sales.

The solution is to JUST SAY NO to chemical dependency! Throw your chemicals in the trash can and learn how to discharge the holding tank waste with water only.

Remember, water flow is friction and friction is what cleans tanks and sensors. A surplus of clean water in and out of the tank is the best all natural cleaning agent. If you were to stop using black tank chemicals right now and "kick the habit ", your tanks would start to self-clean themselves with the friction of water flow only, because you have stopped making a big mess in your tanks.

One final comment… think of your RV as a house. Did you have to chemically break down the waste in your toilet before you flushed it? Of course not! You let the all natural force of water flow move the waste out of the toilet and into the city's wastewater department. Remember, natural water flow created the Grand Canyon. Cleaning out a holding tank shouldn’t be a problem.
