Cassette toilet additives

May be repeating earlier posts but we now only use Aldi Bio Pods  and have no complaints whatsoever even in the high temperatures we have enjoyed this year. Every time I just throw one of those capsules in instead of measuring out that awful blue stuff I thank our friend Merve for putting us on to it, just about the most useful thing I have learned from this forum.

The above is very useful to a new motorhomer!

For those recommending using bio tabs in the toilet, do you also use this in the flush instead of pink fluid, or just in the waste instead of blue? Any recommendations for substitutes for pink fluid to keep the toilet clean / unclogged?

Thanks!

Do you use them in both the cassette and the flush tank?  Do you dissolve the one for the flush in some water?  We couldn't just drop one into our flush water as it's almost impossible to get the top off, and the filler pipe is much too narrow.  I've suggested to OH that we try them after we had problems opening a blue bottle, leading to spillage everywhere!!

No Val just in the cassette, sometimes we add fabric conditioner to the flush tank but  I only do it because someone  else  thinks it smells nice

When I was at the Coniston site in September I noticed there was a clean your cassette machine there, it even refills it with water and 'blue'.

Cost £2. I wondered how well used it was?

I'd forgotten about this thread but have just re read it. No definitive answer about whether it is ok to empty the cassette into a normal household toilet/sewage system if you are using formaldehyde free additives. Any CL owners or wardens out there with knowledge of where the chemical toilet disposal point waste goes? Does it go into the mains sewage system or a dedicated tank for disposal by other means?

If the waste goes into a septic tank then your supposed to use the green chemical additives so it doesn't affect the chemicals that's put in there every time the tank is emptied.
