Caravan Chemical Toilet Operation and Maintenance

The caravan toilet, also known as a chemical toilet or cassette toilet, typically consists of two parts: a fixed toilet bowl with a flushing mechanism and a removable waste tank called a cassette. Caravan toilets may not be the most glamorous topic of conversation. But when the heavens open at the campsite or you get caught short camping off-grid, it helps to know how everything works. If you’re new to caravanning or avoid using the toilet because you are unsure how to prepare and maintain the cassette, this video from Caravan Information Services explains how to treat the tank and operate the toilet, which chemicals you should use, and how to empty the waste. #caravantoilet #thetfordcassettetoilet #chemicaltoilet #cassettetoilet Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 00:02 How the Chemical Toilet Works 00:42 Pink, Blue and Green Toilet Chemicals 01:33 Preparing Your Caravan Toilet 02:25 Using the Caravan Toilet 03:03 Cleaning Chemicals to Avoid 03:23 Emptying the Caravan Toilet 04:24 End of Holiday or Winter Drain Down Procedures 04:47 Periodic Maintenance You can find more help and guidance on related topics in our 'How-to Explainer Videos For Caravanners' playlist here:    • Help and Guidance for Caravanners   Caravan Information Services (CIS) is the UK’s most comprehensive online destination for caravanners and motorhome owners looking for information, advice, perks, and live chat support for complex technical issues or emergencies.
