DEODORANTS AND SPECIAL TISSUE
Your VacuFlush sanitation system requires the regular addition of a deodorant product to reduce malodors and
to help break down holding tank contents. Several factors should be considered in selecting a deodorant
product.
Liquid or Granulated: Liquid products obviously work more quickly by readily going into solution. Granulated
powder formulations, on the other hand, have the advantage of requiring less storage space and are less likely
to leak if the package is inadvertently damaged.
Formaldehyde versus Non-Formaldehyde: Dometic manufactures both types of deodorants. Generally
speaking, formaldehyde formulas control odor very effectively at all temperatures and with all degrees of water
hardness. SeaLand
 Environment-Friendly brand, which is formaldehyde free, is similarly effective.
Environmental Hazards: If you would like further information on the impact of holding tank deodorants, call or
write Dometic at the number and address listed on the back page of this manual. Request a copy of Clean
Water Notebook, Volume 5, which provides complete information in this regard.
How Much Deodorant and How to Add It: The deodorant is added directly into the toilet bowl, then flushed
into the holding tank. Follow bottle or package instructions. Conditions of extremely warm weather, longer
waste holding time and larger tank capacities may require more deodorant treatment. Also, to maintain opti-
mum efficiency in odor control, the waste holding tank should be cleaned thoroughly at least once or more each
season depending on use.
Why Not Use Household Toilet Paper in Your SeaLand Toilet. Household tissues often contain adhesives
which bond together the paper fibers from which the tissue is made. The adhesives prevent the tissue from
breaking apart, and their use in “ultra-low flow” systems can cause system clogging. SeaLand tissue is espe-
cially designed for use in low water toilet systems. Its rapid dissolving properties minimize the amount of
residual paper in the holding tank and allow deodorizers to work more efficiently.
SeaLand versus Other Brands: Dometic constantly strives to provide our system owners with effective
products that have minimal environmental impact and good value. Many other deodorant products do not
measure up to our standards of performance and value.
