THE PROBLEMS
With time, the pipe work of a marine sewage system becomes progressively lined with a build-up of calcinate scale; the subsequent reduction
in cross sectional area of the pipe leads to a reduced flow rates and eventually blockage in the system.
The blockages are always difficult to locate and even more difficult to access and remedy, usually involving disruption of surrounding
furniture and carpentry work and certainly downtime in the sewage system itself; major inconvenience to guests and crew alike.
An annual cleaning of the vessels' sewage system is the only way of avoiding this problem. And unfortunately, current cleaning solutions are
inconvenient and, as many yacht's engineers will testify, may cause more problems than those their purpose is to avoid!
