Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Treat My Black Tank With RV Digest-It
Treating your tank regularly with RV Digest-It varies if you are
camping with full hook ups or if you are dry camping.
Camping With Full Hook Ups:
When you treat your holding tank with RV Digest-It you are
getting the best of both worlds: Waste Digestion (liquefying the
solid waste in your tank) and Odor Elimination. To effectively
treat your system, follow these steps:
1. Dump your tank
2. If possible, flush your tank for 15 – 20 minutes (or as long
as you reasonably can)
3. Close your valve
4. Fill your toilet with water
5. Shake the bottle well
6. Pour 2 oz. RV Digest-It into the toilet (if this is your
first time using RV Digest-It treat with 4 oz.)
7. Flush your toilet
8. Make sure you keep water in the toilet at all times to
keep tank smells suppressed
9. Repeat each time you dump your tank
Dry Camping (Boondocking):
You can certainly use Liquid RV Digest-It when dry camping,
however, dry camping often involves much lower water use and
therefore requires specific bacteria formulations to help control
odors. We recommend using RV Digest-It Powder formula or RV
Digest-It Drop-In Pods if you are dry camping
If you choose to use RV Digest-It liquid when dry camping,
follow the steps above for “Camping With Full Hook Ups.”
How Do I Treat My Gray Tank With RV Digest-It
Everyone has differing ideas on how to properly treat your gray
water holding tanks. The method you ultimately choose is your
decision and it should be based on how you routinely camp. Here
are our recommendations when using RV Digest-It for Camping with
hookups and Dry Camping:
Camping With Full Hook Ups:
If you are camping with full hook ups it’s very unlikely that
you need to use a product every few days as long as you
are following the correct procedures. The majority of the waste
going down your drain should be only liquid so solid waste
shouldn’t really be a problem. If you don’t already use one, a
good sink strainer is crucial to ensuring that only liquids go
down your drains.
Note: Even if you are camping with full hook ups and you keep
your gray tank valve open it’s still important to preventatively
treat your tanks about once per week.
Your goal is to NEVER allow solids down your sink, showers, or
dishwasher lines.
Even if you allow ONLY liquids into your gray tank you still
have greases, soaps, and residue that can cause sensors to
misread and odors so it’s important you follow these steps to
make sure your tanks remain operating properly and that you don’t
get odors in your RV:
1. Keep your GRAY valve open (IMPORTANT!! It’s crucial that you
make a “trap” in your sewer hose to keep dangerous and disgusting
sewer ses from backing up into your RV)
2. Once per week close your valve and flush 2 oz. of RV
Digest-It with several (about 5) gallons of water into your gray
tank and allow solution to sit for about 30 minutes
3. Open your valve and dump your Gray tank
4. If possible, flush your tank for about 15 – 20 minutes (or as
long as you reasonably can)
5. Repeat regularly
Some will argue that it’s not good to keep your gray valve open
because you may get solids backing up that can cause a clog or
cause your sensors to get debris on them and cause them to
misread. This simply shouldn’t be the case if you are ensuring
that no solids go down your drains and end up in the gray tanks.
We suggest keeping your gray valve open because so many
different types of grease (from food waste, soap, shampoo, etc.)
get into your gray tank that you are opening yourself up to
coating your sensors with grease by allowing your gray tanks to
fill up unnecessarily. By leaving your valve open the grease and
residue will run out of your tanks naturally so long as you don’t
allow solids into your gray tanks.
It is also very important that you put the a “trap” in your
discharge line so the foul smelling, dangerous sewer doesn’t
back up into your unit. If you forget to make this trap by
creating a “dip” or “kink” in the line you will know it pretty
quickly as your unit will fill up with foul smells from the
sewer.
Dry Camping Without Hook Ups:
If you are dry camping (boondocking) and don’t have access to
full hook ups it’s important that you use a waste
product to keep odors down and help keep your sensors operating
correctly.
IMPORTANT: Make sure NO solids get into your gray tank. The
waste going down your drain should only be liquid waste so solid
waste doesn’t accumulate in your gray tanks leading to clogs and
misreading sensors. If you don’t already use one, a good sink
strainer is crucial to ensuring that only liquids go down your
drains.
1. Close your gray tank valve
2. Fill your sink with 1 – 2 gallons of water
3. Pour 2 oz. RV Digest-It into the water
4. Release the sink water and drain sink
5. Repeat each time your dump your gray tank
How Do I Eliminate Odors In My Black Tank
Tank odors are a result of the waste inside your tanks breaking
down and releasing hydrogen sulfide (the oh-so-familiar
methane or rotten egg smell). To eliminate the smells you need to
do a combination of a few things.
1. Treat your tank regularly with RV Digest-It to force out the
anaerobic bacteria that produce the foul-smelling and replace
them aerobic bacteria that produce only carbon dioxide and water.
The highly effective bacteria / enzyme strains found in RV
Digest-It break down the waste and exhaust carbon dioxide and
water instead of the foul-smelling you get when you don’t
treat your tank. Using formaldehyde or s only
use s, perfumes, and fragrances to the foul smells.
Often these fragrances are so strong that they are overwhelming
and foul smelling on their own.
2. Keep water in your toilets. Keeping water in your toilets is
a crucial step to manually suppressing the foul-smelling that
may be released while the waste is being broken down. There is a
reason why your home toilets have a trap and contain water – it
is to do exactly this – suppress foul-smelling and dangerous
sewer . Doing the same thing in your RV is crucial.
3. Keep your black tank valve closed except when dumping your
tank. If your valve isn’t kept closed the liquid waste (and RV
Digest-It) will drain out of the tank immediately, leaving only
solid waste behind to create disgusting odors and will eventually
lead to clogs.
4. Do not clean your toilets with , anti-bacterial, or
bleach-based toilet cleaners. The caustic s contained in
these toilet cleaners will kill the beneficial bacteria that is
keeping your holding tank clog and odor free. Instead, clean your
toilet with an RV toilet cleaner that uses tank-safe detergents
to clean the toilets while injecting beneficial bacteria into the
holding tank.
5. Monitor your tank temperatures. If your tanks get extremely
hot or cold the active bacteria that keep your system clog and
odor free may become inactive and lead to issues. Ideally your
tank should remain between 45 and 85 degrees (Fahrenheit) to
create the ideal environment for the safe, beneficial bacteria in
RV Digest-It to flourish. If your tanks get hotter than 85
degrees, increase your dosage a. If your tanks get below 45
degrees you will need to consider better insulating your tanks or
heating them.
How Do I Keep My Sensors Operating Correctly In My Black Tank
To keep your sensors operating correctly it’s important that you
follow these steps on a regular basis:
1. Keep your black tank valve closed except for when dumping
2. Use a waste digesting holding tank . Many of the
products that are available are only designed to or remove
odors and do nothing for waste digestion. Make sure you use a
product like RV Digest-It that does both – digests waste (to keep
your sensors clean) and eliminates odors without ing.
3. Use a strong aerobic bacterial cleaner like RV Digest-It. The
bacteria inside RV Digest-It are specially formulated to force
out the naturally occurring anaerobic bacteria (that come from
your stomach) with the beneficial aerobic bacteria that keep
struvite buildup at bay. If struvite (a hard, mineral-like
coating) is allowed to form inside your tank it will cause your
sensors to misread and malfunction as well as lead to backups.
4. Drive your unit regularly. Driving your unit with water and
RV Digest-It inside the tank helps to swish around the tanks and
clean off your level guage probes.
5. Use a Sensor Cleaner regularly as preventative maintenance.
RV Digest-It is a great sensor maintainer but it’s important to
use a product designed specifically to clean sensors on a regular
basis.
6. Flush your tanks often and for 15 – 20 minutes. Flushing your
tanks is a very important step in deep cleaning your tanks and
should be performed regularly – we suggest weekly when camping
full time.
How Do I Keep My Sensors Operating Correctly In My Gray Tank
Grease and other debris can wreak havoc on gray tank sensors and
cause them to constantly read full. If you are camping with full
hook ups we recommend keeping your valve open (IMPORTANT!! It’s
crucial that you make a “trap” in your sewer hose to keep
dangerous and disgusting sewer ses from backing up into your
RV) so liquids don’t sit unnecessarily in your tanks and allow
grease to build up on the sensors.
Preventing sensor issues in your gray tank varies depending on
whether you are camping with full hook ups or if you are dry
camping.
Camping With Full Hook Ups:
If you are camping with full hook ups it’s very unlikely that

Dry Camping Without Full Hook Ups:
To keep your sensors operating correctly when dry camping
(boondocking) follow these steps:
1. Keep your valve closed except for when dumping the tank
2. After each dump fill your sink with water and pour 2 oz. of
RV Digest-It into the water
3. Release the water and drain sink
4. When possible, drive your RV to allow sloshing action in tank
to keep gray tank agitated and sensors from collecting debris
5. If possible, flush your tank for about 15 – 20 minutes (or as
long as you reasonably can) once per week or so
6. Repeat after each dump
7. Routinely deep clean your sensors using a specific Sensor
Cleaner product
How Do I Keep From Getting Clogs In My Black Holding Tank
Clogs are formed in your tanks from build-up in your tanks from
undigested solid waste (like pyramid plugs) and struvite
build-up.
To ensure you never get clogs in your black water tanks, do the
following:
1. Treat your tank regularly with RV Digest-It to effectively
digest and liquefy the solid waste inside your tanks.
2. Keep your black tank valve closed except when dumping your
tank. If your valve isn’t kept closed the liquid waste (and RV
Digest-It) will drain out of the tank immediately, leaving only
solid waste behind to create disgusting odors and will eventually
lead to clogs.
3. Use ample water with each flush. The more water your keep
inside your black tank the better chance you have of keeping your
tanks clog-free. Not only does the water help break-up the
solids, but it is also a crucial component to keeping the
beneficial bacteria in RV Digest-It alive and active so they can
effectively liquefy the solid waste (including toilet paper)
inside your tank.
4. Do not clean your toilets with , anti-bacterial, or
bleach-based toilet cleaners. The caustic s contained in
these toilet cleaners will kill the beneficial bacteria that is
keeping your holding tank clog and odor free. Instead, clean your
toilet with an RV toilet cleaner that uses tank-safe detergents
to clean the toilets while injecting beneficial bacteria into the
holding tank.
5. Monitor your tank temperatures. If your tanks get extremely
hot or cold the active bacteria that keep your system clog and
odor free may become inactive and lead to issues. Ideally your
tank should remain between 45 and 85 degrees (Fahrenheit) to
create the ideal environment for the safe, beneficial bacteria in
RV Digest-It to flourish. If your tanks get hotter than 85
degrees, increase your dosage a. If your tanks get below 45
degrees you will need to consider better insulating your tanks or
