Keeping your black water tank odor free.

Rv black tank smell.

That said if the smell is really terrible this step will do little to disguise the stench and you ll need to try some other methods of smell removal. This is the preferred tank freshener of many rv owners and if your problem is a lack of tank deodorant this should do the trick. The toilet must be kept clean. Always leave the black tank dump valve closed unless you are actively dumping.

Every so often do your gray tank too. Most smells originate in your black tank but your gray tank can also get smelly especially in warmer climates. If there are no clogs or leaks but there still is a smell the toilet itself is dirty. If the flapper breaks or becomes blocked so that it does not close all the way the odor from the black water tank enters the rv and makes it smell.

Now that you know how to eliminate smell in an rv black water tank you probably want to make sure you keep your tank as odor free as possible from now on. If you flush and clean your black tank regularly you ll prevent tank waste buildup inside.
