Motorhome Maintenance : How to clean waste tanks

[@simonbaxter8585]

I was impressed by the peek under the Adria showing the quality insulation on the grey tank, and a well lagged dump valve. Looks like a van you could trust in cold weather, unlike many others.

[@HereWeTow]

You did well to spot that 😊 Yes, Adria test all their models to extreme low temperatures and they are extremely good in winter. We have a lot of faith in the brand having been very happy owners.

Thank you & you make that look very easy for anyone who is new to Motorhome life .

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you Paul 😊

[@martinharvey4595]

Very comprehensive & helpful

Thanks very much. No nonsense. Very useful

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching 😊 Karina

[@wmark1956]

Nice one 👍

[@lostweekendscaravan]

Hi Karina. Very well explained. I won't mention the flavour😉. Looks like a great product I could do with one for the caravan like this as I am winterising it very soon. Thanks Phil👍🙂

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks Phil 😊👍

[@ItchyFeetcaravanners]

I thought you were going to get soggy socks in the shower for a minute there 😂 Great looking product that, as it does both so not buying the cassette cleaner AND grey waste one. Cheers for this one folks! Mart & Jo.

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks guys 😂 No, I stayed dry! Yes, you can use this for both and it can be used in a waste water carrier for a caravan too to stop that awful smell you sometimes get. 👍

[@TM-ht6id]

Wonderful products. Thanks here tow 😁 x

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks T M 👍

[@stephenprivate8087]

Hi Karina, thanks for the presentation. my issue is not removing he smell from the cassette (I have a SOG, therefore no smells) over time I have had a buildup of calc on the inside of the cassette. does this product remove these deposits?

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you the Thetford Duo Tank cleaner will remove limescale build up..I would give it a good soak though for it to be effective. I hope that helps.. Karina

[@foxlifenews]

Thanks❤👍

[@lorslife16]

Hi where is the site? Good video.thanks

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you, this was Love2Stay 😊

[@krippleinacaravanxxx707]

OMG! I now see others picked you up on the “taste”of the toilet cleaner!!! That gave me a bloody good laugh. I thought you had joined my rank of drinking anything when there is no more booze left! (I do know you don’t drink alcohol!). Always a great vlog. I just did mine! Thetford also have a product for a grey waste master! It’s fab stuff! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks Peter...I know, from now on I will have to rate the flavour of everything 🤣 Good job I love citrus 🍊 Thank you for watching, I hope you have a good week 😊 Karina

[@HitchUpAndTow]

That will make a change, usually my toilet smells of roses after I have used it😜😂

[@HereWeTow]

😲😂 Thanks for watching

[@christibrasher9801]

Do you have a video for cleaning the white water system?

[@HereWeTow]

No but I would advise you use Puriclean. You add it to the freshwater tank and fill it, then draw the water through the pipes. Leave it 12-24 hours and then empty the tank. I usually pull it through the waste water tank to clean that too. Then fill the tank again with water and pull that through to remove the Puriclean. 😊 Karina

[@garethshaw5210]

Great vlog guys!! Did you notice the fresh smell of the chemicals after you treated the grey waste? 👍

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for watching Gareth, I didnt notice any smell inside but the waste tank smells much better when we empty it now. This would have been good to use on our caravan toilet cassette as that had really bad limescale. The Wiltshire and Dorset area seems to have very hard water in some places. 😊 Karina

[@garethshaw5210]

@@HereWeTow I will give it a go!! 👍

[@marquisehailey8483]

Thanks for this. You don't flush the grey water tank after cleaning?

[@HereWeTow]

I wouldn’t as its a bit of a waste of water and as it fills with normal use it would wash anything through. Thanks for watching 😊 Karina

[@saitdesigns]

Where do you empty it if your not on a campsite

[@HereWeTow]

You can empty it at home in to a drain, or the drain at a storage site. Some people use drains on public roads. If you use a treatment like this you can to be mindful of plant and animal life when disposing of water. Just be responsible and considerate, thank you for watching. 😊👍

[@darrenpardoe]

Karina - Do tell how you know the tank cleaner has a citrus flavour? Sorry, could not resist, I guess you meant smell :)

[@HereWeTow]

😂 I know...when i watched it back I said “flavour” ...Obviously i meant scent! I haven’t been drinking Duo Cleaner...thanks for watching. Karina

[@DoctorFish10]

@@HereWeTow I would say flavour too, knowing full well I would never taste it

[@HereWeTow]

😊 😂 Flavour...

[@xbrito3368]

what happened to the flexi pipe link?

[@carolburton5983]

Which site are you on. It looks very nice.

[@HereWeTow]

It is Love2Stay in Shrewsbury Carol. This was our second visit, it is a nice site with a nice cafe and big pitches. 😊

[@prou5]

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but is that the black (chemical loo waste) waste on the same stand as the fresh water tap 🤢😱🦠🤢😱🦠??

[@HereWeTow]

Yes thats right Pete, Im sure people will have their own thoughts on that which is fair enough. 😊 Thanks for watching

[@holm1708]

Good point. Unappetizing.I have often seen people use the fresh water tap to clean the cassette. Disgusting By the way, wonderful video, greetings from Germany

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you very much for watching from Germany 🇩🇪

[@robjamessolo]

It’s got a Citrus flavour - what’s it taste like?

[@HereWeTow]

Yes...I know, 😂 Fragrance...it came out as flavour! I have not tasted it and do not recommend its consumption! Thanks for watching 😊 Karina

[@firstmotorhome8024]

Not sure if you mentioned it but Love2stay do request the green organic toilet chemical be used on the pitch elsan and not the blue .

[@HereWeTow]

I didn’t mention green but yes, thats right, any chemicals used must be septic tank safe and no Formaldehyde chemicals 😊 Thanks for watching

[@Tom-852]

First again! How much longer do you have the Motorhome?

[@HereWeTow]

That has to be a record! 😂 We return the Motorhome this week which we are quite sad about. Thanks for watching, Karina

[@robjamessolo]

What site was that?

[@HereWeTow]

It is Love2Stay in Shrewsbury

[@robjamessolo]

@@HereWeTow - thanks for the reply - looks great there but I expect it’s not cheap per night

[@HereWeTow]

During school holidays the price goes up considerably, when we were there it was £27 a night for a fully serviced pitch. 😊

[@robjamessolo]

@@HereWeTow well I don’t like campsites with kids on to be honest so will try and avoid school hols 😀

[@HereWeTow]

🤣

[@kevandrews6418]

Nice one again karina any time u passing can u come and do mine there's a cuppa in it for ya LOL enjoy your break .kev

[@HereWeTow]

No problem Kev, as long as you throw in a piece of cake too 👍 Karina

[@cinder2994]

Didn't remove sludge in our grey water tank.

[@HereWeTow]

Have you tried Puriclean? If your tank has quite a build up then concentrated Puriclean should shift most things..

[@fenwanderermiller]

Surely you can use tank and empty when full

[@HereWeTow]

Quite possibly but it would dilute the concentration of the cleaner, I followed the instructions. 😊 Thanks for watching, Karina

[@davelewis3022]

Just the one dose though Darren
