Wintering of the… Tank and hose circuit
Black water storage tank:
We will empty the tank, it may be obvious but it is something that is often forgotten and it is not pleasant to return to the boat after a long winter and find it full of undesirable odors coming from the wastewater tank.
What we recommend to avoid this trauma once we have emptied the tank for the first time, fill it a second time with preferably fresh water and we will add a dose of Adinet Wc Nautic , at a rate of 250ml per 80 liters of tank capacity, we will let it act for 8 hours (we can increase the dose depending on the dirt in the tank). The tank can be left full of water with Adinet until the next season. This way we ensure disinfection and good smell on the boat.
Another option for cleaning “rebellious” tanks or when there is a lot of scale, we recommend using the Clean Green Ref 512602 tablets, which have an effervescent effect. We must fill with water and empty the tank completely, at least once. Then fill the tank again with water and where there is 6 cm left before it is full and pour the pill(s) (according to the proportion of the container). You can leave it for at least 8 hours.
Then empty the tank again. (Ask for information about them, they are not in the catalog).
Hose circuit :
During the rest period in which the toilet will remain, bacteria can proliferate in the bowl, pipes and storage tank. To inhibit them and disinfect the system, what we recommend to take full advantage of the benefits of Adinet nautical toilet is to pour 100ml directly into each toilet bowl. of undiluted product. Taking into account that you must have downloaded several times before, to empty the charging line. When temperatures are high, more product can be added to increase its effectiveness. We will let the product act for at least 1/2 hour, for it to be effective. It is also a good option to let it sit in the hoses or tank for a week.
By using the Adinet WC Nautic We make the product clean the remains of paper and waste, leaving everything in its path disinfected and odor-free (avoid using products that contain Formaldehyde, they are very polluting).
And what happens to the gray water tank or the hose and drain circuit?
The liquid from the drains of the sink and kitchen sink also contains agents with bacteria and produces bad odors (soap residue, grease, food particles).
This grease adheres to the walls of the pipes and the gray water tank. To avoid this and leave them clean during the winter, we recommend pouring 50ml. undiluted Adinet Tank in each drain (shower, sink, etc.). In the kitchen, because it contains more fat and gives off more odors, we recommend pouring 100ml. This way we will prevent grease from oils and soaps from sticking to the walls of the pipes and causing a bad smell. When temperatures are high, more product can be added to increase its effectiveness. We will let the product act for at least 1/2 hour, for it to be effective. It is also a good option to let it sit in the hoses or tank for a week.
