Reducing toilet smells

1. Open bathroom window.

2. Eat less baked beans, Jerusalem artichokes etc..

3. Don’t open bathroom door for at least 30 mins later.

4. Don’t let this spoil your time away, after being in lockdown for what seems like forever, a temporary pong is a minor issue..

Again ,what smells? 

We use the green organic toilet fluid and have no problems with smell 

We use the normal blue chemical in the holding tank and diluted Zoflora for sanitising the bowl and don't have any issues.  As already said, keep bathroom door closed and open the window and/or roof light.  You could also keep a spray of something with a pleasant fragrance handy.

We use the pink flush after use and the aperture has been closed  we flush again leaving some the pink fluid in the bowl 

The most important tip is to open the slide before you start, this way the solids fall into the water below (just like at home) minimising the smell.

Some people will suggest lining the bowl with paper and only opening the slide on completion but this is the worst way of all.

SOG toilets claim to do away with smells due to the extract fan creating a partial vacuum in the pan when the seat is closed and venting the air through a filter to the outside of the van. They use no chemicals.

I would be interested to know whether they work although I imagine a retrofit would be quite costly.

We have been using our own facilities for the last 30 years, with no issues. It’s about getting the tank mix right, (we now use a couple of washing bio pods), line the bowl for other than a wee, flush with pink liquid, empty at least every couple of days, and to be honest, just get on with it. It’s a human bodily function, every single human being has to do it............

Using the biopods the smells are minimal from the toilet. We did think we had a problem but it was actually the smell from the hand basin drain. Putting the plug firmly in and some tank freshener in the waste sorted that.  There are no windows in our bathroom just the roof light. We always open this. If rain should come in it just goes down the shower drain. We also have a pleasant smelly thing, that lives in the cupboard when traveling.

Oh My Lord!!, lockdown has seriously effected some peoples sanity, who posts something like this??, however i will give you my opinion on this, my better half always insists that I use the extractor, but I prefer to push it out!!
