34 March | April 2019 // Features BacTANK If you're looking for an environmentally-friendly way to treat the waste in your holding tank, then you might want to consider investing in the BacTANK T3, a microbial holding tank product. This product treats waste by turning it to liquid while destroying the bacteria. By doing this, it also eliminates odors and you won't need to use harsh chemicals or form- aldehyde. The owner of BacTANK, Barbara Nolan, designed this product. As a distinguished biochemist, Nolan performed all the research and testing that made this product possible. With the BacTANK T3, you can protect your houseboat by improving your holding tank's waste degradation, and, in extension, your enjoyment out on the water. Plus, since harsh chemicals are no lon- ger necessary, you'll preserve the integrity of your tanks and lines. To use BacTANK T3, it's recommended that you start with a clean tank. Once your tank is clean, simply pour 8 to 10 ounces into each toilet and flush. It's as simple as that. From there, you won't have to worry about unpleasant smells permeating your tank walls and lines because it starts to work immediately and continues to work until it degrades all the waste. 877-246-2847 | www.bactankt3.com A more cost-friendly but just as reliable alternative would be the SaniMarin MaxLite. Lightweight, reliable, and comfortable, this product is your solution to hand pump toilets and its varied bowl positioning allows it to fit into tight spaces. Both the SaniMarin 48 and the SaniMarin MaxLite are designed for boats to make going less of a hassle and more of a luxury.
