Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / RVs / November 2006How Strong is Scent From Toilets?
We are going to purchase a Rockwood High-Wall series pop-up and first wish to ask if the toilets of this brand or any other brand of pop-ups have any odor issues. My nose does not work so well, but my wife has a pretty strong sense of smell. I am concerned that if we get the toilet option she might smell something during the night. I doubt it would be an objectional smell, perhaps just a sickly sweet smell. I have never delt with toilets of this manner in my life so do not know what to expect. Should we just skip the toilet option and rely on the public bathroom? I think I got my answer from looking back through the Google usenet archives of this forum: The scent is no problem at all, and you can vary the chemicals till you find the one you like most. The bathroom & shower really is a great convenience as we have two children that use the bathroom often during the night. The shower is also great. So we shall get both the options, and start enjoying ourselves. I really like the idea of getting a quality pop-up-trailer rather than a huge RV setup because I want to go camping often along the California Big Sur coast and driving up some of those roads has got to be a nightmare with a longish setup. > We are going to purchase a Rockwood High-Wall series pop-up and first > wish to ask if the toilets of this brand or any other brand of pop-ups [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > expect.

A well maintained and properly used RV toilet has virtually NO odor. > Should we just skip the toilet option and rely on the public > bathroom? No way. If you value convenience, privacy and cleanliness, you and your wife will appreciate the on-board toilet. Go for it.

There are even people in this group that forgot, or just didn't get around to emptying a chemical toilet before putting it away for the winter, and it still had no offensive odor when the popup was opened come spring! SignatureKarl & Angela `02 Durango `05 Fleetwood Allegiance My wife's nose could put a bloodhound's to shame, and she has yet to mention any issue with the toilet's smell. We DO keep "Ozium" handy for the times we actually are using it. It is a relatively confined space after all! >> We are going to purchase a Rockwood High-Wall series pop-up and first >> wish to ask if the toilets of this brand or any other brand of pop-ups [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > it > still had no offensive odor when the popup was opened come spring! > We are going to purchase a Rockwood High-Wall series pop-up and first > wish to ask if the toilets of this brand or any other brand of pop-ups [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > expect.
