I got a bottle of the Sensor Cleaner but have not had to use it yet. It was interesting when he said don't clean the toilet with bleach or anything that will kill microbes in the black tank.
Don’t tell anyone, but I also double flush #1
We had the misfortune in building our current home just after the overzealous water police (i.e. those in the Federal govt) issued regulations on toilet flush water use for homes and before good sense prevailed and/or the manufacturers figured out how to make the low water use toilets actually work.
I was building houses as a contractor when the rules went into place. I managed to get an old toilet from the 60's for my own house until they worked out the problems. They would call it a success that they forced change which eventually led to something better saying it would have never happened if they didn't.We had the misfortune in building our current home just after the overzealous water police (i.e. those in the Federal govt) issued regulations on toilet flush water use for homes and before good sense prevailed and/or the manufacturers figured out how to make the low water use toilets actually work.
So, they didn't work. So, I had to adjust the tank float to fill the tank to the brim and even then frequently have to flush twice. ~25+ years later, we still use those toilets and they still use even more water than the pre-regulation toilets did.
Worked out well for the water police, didnit?
Lesson: feel-good regulations have to result in products that actually work or they are self-defeating. Apparently, few in fed or state governments have actually learned that lesson, though.
PS: @TheLooks, this isn't directed at you. I just used your post as a launch pad, so to speak...
