I have heard that you can clean the build up that occurs from sea
water flushing in the 1 1/2" discharge hoses from the heads using Acetic acid. Is this true? If so, what percentage acid would I use? Thanks |

If so, what percentage acid would I use? Thanks I am Greg Hall - Peggie's older, more intelligent brother. Peggie is indisposed for a week or so. She's healing well up after her recent successful face lift surgery. She's not getting any younger, ya know, and like many post-menopausal women, she's concerned with the rapid onset of the aging process after the sharply reduced estrogen output of her shutting down ovaries. She says don't use acetic acid. Acids in general are bad for your waste system. Acid attacks the rubber parts and acid wreaks havoc with the good bacteria in the holding tank(s) causing quite a reek. Peggie says a better solution would be to manipulate the flexible hoses manually while somebody else pumps the head. Flexing the hoses back and forth manually breaks the hard deposits loose from inside the hoses and the water passing through carries it away. Peggie tells me she likes squeezing hoses. ;-) P.S. My sister would appreciate if you spelled her name right. Thanks. -- Gregory Hall |

Gregery:
My apologies to Peggie! Hope she mends well and soon. I cannot imagine the strength required to "squeeze" or flex an 1 1/2" hose on my boat. The lengths are much too short. If there's a trick to it, please tell me or better yet come and demonstrate. |

So, Wilbur continues to spiral down to new lows as a human being.
He's an amazing guy. I be his mother would be proud. |
