3) Maintenance of black water tank
- The risk of unpleasant odours forming increases when the waste water remains in the tank
for a long time.
- Whenever possible empty the tank regularly even before it is full.
- Every time the tank is emptied put in about 5 litres of fresh water and add an appropriate
detergent additive (available from chandleries). A very simple method is soda salts, which
clean and disinfect at the same time.
- Before winterising, flush the tank with copious amounts of fresh water filling it through the
'WASTE' deck connection. Leave at least 5 litres of fresh water mixed with a detergent additive.
- Disinfecting: Disinfect the tank once a year by filling it with a solution of Javel water (1 to
1000).
- Never use automobile anti-freeze in the black water system: risk of
poisoning.
ADVICE-RECOMMENDATION
- Respect local regulations regarding the emptying of black water tanks.
