[Sentoa] Macerator joker valves

[tugs4me at comcast.net]

Harry, 

Are you using the special TP recommended by SeaLand/Vac-U-Flush? Charmin and other heavy, soft paper will plug the macerator. In fact SeaLand notes Charmin as a specific NoNo. If the duckbills are not deformed or split they should be OK. SeaLand's special paper is available at West Marine and is quite expensive compared to Costco prices for Charmin but it's worth it to eliminate the hassle. 

Also, resist the urge to put a little detergent in the holding tank to assist in keeping it clean. It will foam and cause the macerator to malfunction. 

Hope all's well with you and Pat.
