The other day I was looking at the sheet for the actual No Fuss black tank flush and looking at the install sheet, the sprayer for that is installed about 2" from the top of the tank. The unit also has a vacuum breaker which gave me the idea that maybe some of what I sometimes smell is actually coming from the breaker in the No Fuss thing.

I always seem to notice that the smells come from around the vanity, which would make sense, since you can see the plumbing for this thing. At least I think it is the BTF I see. Either way, what I smell, isn't contiunous, just for a few minutes or so.

Just a thought.

This morning Jeff got up to use the loo and found black-tank matter sitting in the bottom even with a flush, thus the tank was full. He emptied it, and then it was fine and normal: no 'burp' of water, no smell. I'm relieved but a little confused because it was emptied just a week ago and I wouldn't have thought we'd have used it that much since then. But maybe we did. I do use a lot of water. All of the advice above we've read and will keep in consideration, and thankfully for now all is normal again. Thanks!!!
