Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

If you do...can you still add the Calgon, or fabric softener, and or  dawn too?

A slight topic deviation FWIW I do not use anything in either tank unless 1) the rig will be sitting in extreme heat and be all closed up for few days or 2) if there is a heavy dose of TP in there. Only in those two cases will I maybe add a tiny Potty Toddy (by Valterra) tablet to help break down the TP and possible smell. Never have had an odor problem. Your results with your own waste tank brews will certainly vary. Going without tank additives is certainly worth a try - the price and simplicity is right!

We haven't used any treatments in our tanks since we went Full-timing 6 years ago. Haven't had a problem with the waste breaking down or odor.

IMHO chemicals are not necessary when using the RV daily. We did use them when we were using the unit for vacations and weekend trips.

In our previous motorhome we found we did not have to use chemicals as full timers, but this one seems to need a little help. We use Happy Camper and it seems to provide the boost we need. We do not put Calgon or Dawn in the black tank. Another chemical we like, but have a harder time getting, is Sea-zyme.

Thanks to everyone for the info out there.
Appreciate it.
Bill, and  I thank you also for the Odorless info, and Sea-Zyme.
A friend gave me this site below as he buys this one too.
Maybe it will help you out...if you do not have this one.
