    It's gonna get cold folks ...from this weekend on expect sub-zero temperatures, some days next week are expected to never creep above zero.

    Rookie question I've a chemical toilet in the van, will the chemicals stop the added water from freesing?

    I've everything else done, main tank, waste tank taps, water heater.

    I wouldn't think so.
    Just take the cassette out and store it inside for the really cold nights

    drain the water boiler too... and leave the taps in the open position .

    A drop of antifreeze in the waste tanks and the cassette will keep you thawed...just dont put it in the drinking water tank!

    Thanks I'll get some for now I took it out and emptied it - didn't have ant-freez and didn't want to chance it . So all's good.
