Confused on how much Loo Blue to use?

[HomerMarge]

How much should we be putting in what I assume is a standard size cassette toilet (fixed seat design)? I cannot find anywhere on the toilet that states the capacity of the tank and the instructions are not clear as it talks about various models? I think I am putting around 75ml at the moment (using the inner cap) then about half a small jug of water?

I may be wrong, but I put in a good glug and quite a bit of water. I have found that the guage doesn't work otherwise and you get more smell. You probably end up emptying more often but its a lot easier to deal with

I use the lod off the toilet cassette and just fill it with blue, then add about 3l of water.

No smell and easy to empty

For capacities see the following website. You probably have a C2:

Just a splash of water is fine just to dilute it slightly.

I just pour about a cupful in and if it gets smelly (hot weather) I tip in a bit more.

I much prefer the thick Elsan blue

Hi Paul and Ruth,

You are putting the correct amount of Loo Blue in your toilet just checked with the manufactures I have also put that amount in our loo and never had a problem,everything breaks down nicely(Glug) Jim.

Hi Everybody,

We have found since they have stopped putting formaldahide into the Loo Blue products, to make them more eco friendly, that they do not work as effectively, and that you do need to use more of the product to maintain a fresh smelling loo. I don't actually know whether it's less effective in breaking down the contents...... I don't actually empty the thing.

I keep a one litre bottle with a measure on it and refill it from the larger and cheaper bottles, I just use one full dose which I think is 50ml's. We also use the pink in the flush if that makes a difference but we find this is enough over a couple of days to keep things exceptable?..least ways I have no complaints and I empty it!!!

We put in a good gloop and some water but to be honest, I give the cassette a good shake every morning and everything disolves fine. Another good shake before emptying and we rarely have anything undisolved.
