#23 How To Clean & Sanitize Thetford TOILET CASSETTE - in motorhome, caravan or boat...

  • How to get rid of smell - emptying, cleaning & sanitizing a caravan toilet cassette in a caravan, motorhome or a boat... Today I will show you how we keep our caravan toilet cassette clean. It is made of plastic, like the rest of the caravan toilet and it is a bit tricky to keep it clean and fresh. What we do is empty the casette, flush it with clean water, empty again and then we pour a little bleach inside and top it up with water. It is important to filll your caravan toilette cassette to the brim and leave the solution for 5-10 min. Then you can empty the cassette, flush with clean water and add a bit of caravan toilet flush liquid inside. This is our tried and tested hack and it works! Be careful with using bleach as it is not great for septic tanks, because it will kill bacteria breaking up waste if used in excess. Always check with the caravanning site if you can use bleach and if in doubt carry out this procedure when you get back home. We use only a bit of bleach and deep clean the caravan toilet cassette in this way once a week. When travel in a motorhome in winter, the first thing we do is cleaning the cassette using our hack, they usually smell badly even when clean.
    I hope you will enjoy watching me doing dirty work! We will apppreciate if you leave us a like. Have you got any other camping and caravanning hacks? Share them in the comments. Sharing is caring :-) Thank you for watching, Kat and Marek.

    I have never seen a Dump EZY in any of the campgrounds I’ve been too in the US. If campgrounds in the US had a Dump EZY station or two , it would make life for cassette toilet owners easier. Because as of now if you want to dump a cassette toilet at campgrounds in the US, you either have to carry or roll it ,if it has wheels, to a bathroom and flush it down a toilet then find a way to rinse it out with clean water before dumping the rinse water out in the toilet ; which most campground bathrooms don’t have fresh water hoses available to use for rinsing out the cassette toilets ,or you have to do the transporting by car of the cassette toilet to the campground dump station to wait your turn to use the dump station which usually consists only of a small pipe coming up from the ground that you have to make sure your cassette toilet dump tube fits inside the pipe otherwise you are risking wee or number 2 going everywhere around this small dump pipe. You guys in other countries are so lucky to have the Dump Ezy stations.

      Hi, well... cleaning takes a long time! In our views, convenience is not worth the effort afterwards... we tried onceand nver again! Plus we just can't get over the idea that no2 is swimming happily in the cassette till it's emptied... Some people say that if you use good chemicals it breaks down completely... well, it would take a lot of product when you live in a caravan full time and use the cassette daily. It is a no from us! ha ha ha Kat

      Living full time in caravan, toilet is there to be used.
      Useing the Walex Porta-Pak BLUE bags is a great product for deodorizer and breaking down solids.
      Tank is emptied every 4-5 days.
      No worries at all...
      Cheers..
      Ps, the liquid stains so easy, but the pre pack bags so easy to use, no spills, no stains..
      Bulk amount is available to keep cost effective, 15 in a bag or get the 75 bag as I use..

    • @FreedomSeekers-FS
      @FreedomSeekers-FS  3 місяці тому

      When it comes to disposing of water and waste from your caravan toilet cassette, it's important to use designated facilities provided at caravan sites or waste disposal points. These areas are equipped to handle such waste safely and responsibly. If you're unsure where the nearest disposal point is, the campsite staff or site regulations should provide guidance. Always follow the proper procedures to ensure environmental responsibility and the cleanliness of your surroundings.
