The good news is that a stinky head is curable. The better news is that it need not cost you an arm and a leg.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/raritaneng.com\/raritan-product-line\/waste-treatment\/k-o-kills-odors\/\">Odor control<\/a>&nbsp;doesn&rsquo;t necessarily start at the marine head (<span class=\"sumo_twilighter_highlighted twilighter-4a8888eb\">hoses are often the chief culprit), but that seems like the logical place to start. A big step toward reducing head odors<\/span>&nbsp;is to use fresh water for flushing. Salt water is alive with microscopic critters that add to the odor problem when they die and decay in your holding tank.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;newer <a href=\"http:\/\/raritaneng.com\/raritan-product-line\/finished-goods\/atlantes-freedom\/\">electric toilets<\/a>&nbsp;we tested also cut down on water usage, and just as importantly, they help clear the hose better with their high-velocity flushes. These heads use a high-speed centrifugal &ldquo;Vortex&rdquo; pump, which has a unique convex rotor and a funnel-shaped casing or volute that converts kinetic energy into pressure.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Your Boat Cleaning Products Professionals Discuss Easy Ways to Keep Your Boat Smelling Great<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Your&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/raritaneng.com\/category-pages\/cleaners\/\">boat cleaning products<\/a> suppliers talk about how akin to a common bilge pump, the centrifugal pump has a set of curved blades on a rotor. The fast-spinning rotor creates a change in pressure that can quickly push a&nbsp;slug of liquid through the system, using very little water and making far less noise than the earlier renditions.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"sumo_twilighter_highlighted twilighter-11d6a388\">However, you have to be wary about what you add. Our recent&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"sumo_twilighter_highlighted twilighter-11d6a388\">test of joker valves<\/span><span class=\"sumo_twilighter_highlighted twilighter-11d6a388\">&mdash;the essential valve that<span class=\"sumo_twilighter_shares\">1<\/span><\/span>&nbsp;prevents backflow from the holding tank and helps create the vacuum for flushing&mdash;demonstrated that some products used for cleaning, deodorizing, and winterizing heads can shorten the valve&#8217;s life. If you&rsquo;re serious about controlling head odors, you will watch what you put in your head and replace this valve every year. It is the most important valve in the system.<\/p>\n<p>Too often, sailors accept head odors as an inevitable side-effect of having a holding tank. But with a little extra effort you can escape the stink.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>Rescuers in Houston hauled 21 adorable dogs to safety in a single boat<\/strong><\/h1>\n<div id=\"\">\n<p>After Hurricane Harvey, a group of good Samaritans came to the rescue of dozens of good dogs.<\/p>\n<p>Houston resident Betty Walter found herself stranded in flood waters&nbsp;in the wake of the storm. She was also sheltering 21 dogs (some of which belonged to her neighbors) and wasn&#8217;t sure how they would all get to safety.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, the dog rescue crew came along. They loaded all 21 dogs on the boat &mdash; Walter walked alongside &mdash; and hauled everyone away.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was worried there was too many dogs on the boat and it would tipped [sic] over,&#8221; Walter wrote in a Facebook post. &#8220;I told them I would stay behind and for them to make 2 trips. They said NO we are taking all and you. We had 21 dogs on this boat.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To get out, the humans had to slog through water higher than her head, she added.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually, Walter and all 21 took shelter at a crew member&#8217;s house in nearby Kemah, Texas. At the time of writing, they were all doing fine.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Keep in mind these pointers when getting rid of that nasty smell. 1)&nbsp;Odor control doesn&rsquo;t necessarily start at the marine head;&nbsp; 2)&nbsp;<span class=\"sumo_twilighter_highlighted twilighter-4a8888eb\">A big step toward reducing head odors<\/span>&nbsp;is to use fresh water for flushing;&nbsp; and 3) salt water could be the problem.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/raritaneng.com\/\">Click here<\/a>&nbsp;and find more information regarding boat cleaning products here at Raritan Engineering, where we always take care of your marine sanitation supply needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>via&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practical-sailor.com\/blog\/Combatting-Onboard-Toilet-Odors-11207-1.html\">Combatting Onboard Toilet Odors<\/a><\/p>\n<p>via <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/2017\/08\/29\/hurricane-harvey-dog-boat-rescue\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rescuers in Houston hauled 21 adorable dogs to safety in a single boat<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boat Cleaning Products Distributors Share Great Ideas of Getting Rid of That Nasty Smell On Your Boat<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3],"tags":[16],"class_list":{"0":"post-13748","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-cleaning-products","7":"category-general-news","8":"tag-boat-cleaning-products"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13748","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13748"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13748\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13748"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.raritaneng.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
