Waste Holding Tank
After complete evacuation of the waste, insert a hose into opposite end of the tank from the blackwater
drain connection. The hose should have enough pressure to dislodge any waste material clinging to
internal tank surfaces.
After cleaning, disinfect the waste tank using the chlorine-cleaning agent. First pour five gallons of the
solution through the urinal piping. Then flush at least two gallons of the chlorine solution through each
commode. Completely fill the waste tanks with the solution and allow to sit overnight; repeat the
procedure, and finally flush each commode and urinal; completely drain the wastewater tanks; allow the
tanks to dry before packing.
Shutdown and Storage
Using general-purpose detergent, first thoroughly wash the inside of the CL/CLS, from ceiling to floor.
Empty and rinse the waste tank. Second, using a double-strength of the chlorine solution, sanitize the
CL/CLS from ceiling to floor, including the inside of commodes (1) and the urinal trough (2). Allow the
CL/CLS to air dry.
Daily
Clean and sanitize CL/CLS at least each shift, and at the end of each morning (or other rush).
Weekly
Using general-purpose detergent, thoroughly wash the CL/CLS from ceiling to floor and then sanitize with
single-strength sanitizing solution.
