@@FreedomSeekers-FS thank you for your reply 😊 it’s currently on a farm close to my home, I’m going to rebuild it after taking the gas system out completely and adding solar, and live in it! I’ve been renting for over 25 years and with 3 dogs and a toddler now, I’m finding it difficult getting anyone to rent to me!
Hi Jasen! So happy you've found us! Welcome aboard! We have quite a few videos about our caravan life, trying to answer the most popular questions, but if you have any more, just ask! Enjoy! Kat
We have these in Australia, I think they are great. I have not seen them in in the usa though. I am a trucker lady and have one. Such a life saver for number 1s Cheers!
Hello, wow our video travelled a long way to reach you! Thank you for tunning in! We've made quite a few videos about caravan toilet as it is one of the most thrilling aspects of living in a caravan full time! :D :D best wishes, Kat.
I always give ours a deep clean after a weeks use, first off course I empty it then give it a good flush out then put in a cup full of soda Chrystals along with a clothes washing tab in then warm water I then shake it about , then leave for 24 hours shaking in the mean time after 24 hours I empty it I then remove the top and give it a good clean inside using a. Small brush once that’s done put it all back together spraying a liberal amount of silicone spray on the moving parts .Once done looks like brand new!
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, thank you so much for sharing useful knowledge! Go Australian Dump Ezy! Such an important amenity on any site. We take great pride in keeping this area spotless, as it is the most often visited area on the whole site 😁 Ideal for sticking posters... 😁 K
Hi, Yep we have the blue DumpEzy dump point all over Australia. They are supplied by the CMCA and Councils/Caravan Parks just have to hook them up. Regards & Happy Caravanning, PaPa chris
Yep! and what we have here on site arrived all the way from Australia... have not seen it on any other site in the UK so far. I think my 'favourite' type of chemical toilet is just an old house toilet :D K
Could you please specify the exact minute and second in the video where you saw the small knob with yellow on it? That way, I can provide you with more accurate information about its use. Thanks!
@@FreedomSeekers-FSSorry I should of replied ive sussed it out,it wasnt on the one in the video it was another type,founf out its to open slide on the cassette but i appreciate you answering.regards
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.
In Australia we are not to use bleach and pour it down the dump points as this upsets the bacteria balance needed to make the septic system work properly. Bad idea!
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..
We use ours for no. 2 and in the US it seems very common to do so. It's especially nice to have a cassette toilet when you're out in the boonies with no other option. Back at a campground, they can be dumped into a vault toilet. Just have to make sure any chemicals you use are septic safe. We only use probiotics.
Thetford: "Never use household detergents to clean the toilet: they may contain bleach, which can cause damage to the seals and plastic." - POOR ADVICE.
That's a load of bunk. If that were the case kitchen sinks, washing machines toilets showers etc... Would be leaking all over the world because of wrecked seals.

Love your videos ! Dump-Ezy is an Australian company.
Oh wow! Well done!
Hey there! Thanks for the bleach hack, I'm going to try it at our next destination.
Your dump points are very similar to the Aussie ones

Maybe a year late but Dump Ezy is the standard dump point in Australia. Not sure where they are made but possibly in Australia..
Hi :-) Thanks! Will keep our eyes peeled when in Oz! Kat
Great video!

How many gallons is that cassette toilet?
Thetford C2 Cassette Toilet capacity is 18L - 4.75 gal.

Noted! K
Has anyone ever went #2 in one of these. We only use it for weee but incase of being in a bind how’s it cleaning one after that mess 😳

You may want to consider labelling that bleach container just so that someone else doesn't accidentally use it not knowing what's inside.
Hi, yes! That's a valid, COSHH inspired comment :-) Will do! K
Yes,Australia
Dump-ezy comes from Australia
👍
We stayed on pitch No1 on the lake field for 4days at Easter, your so lucky to live on such a nice site. We will be back again at the end of August.
Thetford: "Never use household detergents to clean the toilet: they may contain bleach, which can cause damage to the seals and plastic." - POOR ADVICE.
Using this method for over 5 years... 2 years in motorhome, 3 years in caravan. No problems at all 😁
Thetford only recommend purchasing thetford cleaning products to maximise sales.
25 years living full time in caravans and never had a problem using bleach!
Been using bleach for years mine is still ok
That's a load of bunk. If that were the case kitchen sinks, washing machines toilets showers etc... Would be leaking all over the world because of wrecked seals.
Australia
👍
That was about 50 teaspoons!
Ha ha possibly!
Dump EZY all over Australia.
I wonder how many are there in the UK apart from 2 in Mill Park Campsite 😁😁😁
5 mins of useful information. The rest is total waffle. Get to the pont!
Ouch! Kat
