Ok I’m new here and new to owning a travel trailer with holding tanks. So here we go….
I got my travel trailer, 2013 Evervite by evergreen. Winterized it with antifreeze in November and just hooked water up to clear out the antifreeze and fill the water heater before our trip this weekend.
After running the sinks and shower, the weather did not cooperate and it was 95 and humid. I went into the camper and was met with a rough odor in the living quarters and bathroom. Whoa!
The kitchen sink and bathroom sink don’t have the strong odor nor does the toilet. Found the strongest place or potential order causer was the shower drain. I ran some more water in it and definitely see water in the drain but no new water came up. The tanks were emptied when I took ownership but not sure when or if they were ever cleaned out thoroughly.
Any tips or causes of these odors? Any help would be appreciated.
