Changing from Toxic to

Environmentally Safe Holding Tank Products

Now, that most of us know about the toxic effects of Formaldehyde, Para-formaldehyde,

Quaternary Ammonium Chlorides and Bronopol based holding tank products,

how do we change over?

First, remember, the old chemicals are still in the system and need to be removed.

Also, some old chemicals are absorbed by or "cling to" the plastic walls of the tanks. This

can cause your new Bacterial Products to not work as expected.

So let's get rid of the problem!

It's easy to do!

1. Simply fill your Holding Tank(s) with fresh water and allow to sit for

about two hours then drain into approved Sani-Dump.

2. Repeat if convenient.

3. Start by using Westchem Crystal Blue because it will not be effected by the

toxic chemicals and is a great way to remove them. Follow instructions

for normal usage. One (1) lid full per Tank Dump. One jar will yield about

15 treatments. Finish using Crystal Blue and your tanks(s) will be free of

those toxic chemicals.

4. Continue to use Crystal Blue as your regular Holding Tank Product or

switch to Westchem Zyme-Out the liquid bacterial formula.

That's it!!
