Head Maintenance

  • A seized macerator pump can be freed by unhooking the discharge hose and raising it above the pump. Pour in a solution of dishwashing liquid and water. Let sit for at least an hour.
  • If the drain keeps clogging and smelling, toss a handful of baking soda in it, then a pot of boiling water.
  • To keep the rubber joker valve from drying out, pump some vegetable oil through the system each month.
  • Hair spray buildup on the mirror? Wipe it off with rubbing alcohol.
  • Before cleaning the toilet, drop 2 Alka Seltzer tablets in the bowl. After the fizz, scrub the bowl as usual.
  • Before leaving the boat, pour Pine-Sol into the toilet bowl to keep it fresh.
  • Deodorize the toilet with a solution of 3 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of warm water. Don't rinse it.
  • Check to see if the source of a bad smell in the head is coming from a hose. How? Wrap the hose in a warm, damp rag, then let it cool. Unwrap the hose and smell the rag. If it stinks, replace the hose.
  • Need a temporary fix for a smelly waste hose? Wrap it in Saran Wrap.
  • Mildew in the bowl can be cleaned by generously spraying oven cleaner and letting it sit for five minutes. Wipe with damp paper towels.
  • If gunk is caking up your shower tracks, clean them out it a cotton swab soaked in a mild solution of bleach and water. Keep this away from caulking.
  • To clean tile, rub a little vegetable oil on the stain.
