I'm in the process (well, will be when I return to the boat) of
replumbing both heads. Both used to have intake Tees for small
tubing led to a jug of what I presumed was KO, CP or the like.
As I really don't expect an odor problem, being either hard pipe or
aussieglobe outflow, I'm wondering, however, about the automation of
the additives which make the head itself happy.
Is using these tees, connected to, say, dilute CP, vinegar, or
lubricant, or some combination, worth the effort to keep up with it
(the jug full on whatever usage level there is), or is just dumping
some in from time to time either better or more effective?
You don't need the reservoir and siphon...the siphon check valves are
more trouble to maintain than they're worth, and putting anything down
with with every flush just uses a lot more of it than you need. A
cupful of undiluted white vinegar down the toilet once a week...holding
tank product down the toilet as needed (read the directions on the
product to know how often)...and C.P. squirted all around the bowl when
you want to clean it is all you need.
