After a year with carters mix, I had no issues… with no flex, it seemed to flair up very once in a while…OK, supply of No-Flex is out, making CPP!! Love the cost difference!
No…. I fell for your info commercial last year. Oxy is very different than Carters poopy powder. It doesn’t dissolve the same and doesn’t work the same. I threw my container out last year
I know ingredients are close to same but something is different
Our basement has tile in the bathroom and behind the bar, the rest is just painted concrete with a huge area rug. From time to time we would get a little sewer smell so I started using CPP in our sump when I read this thread last year . Well a couple weeks ago I was at Grandaughter #2 track meet, and my wife called that there was some water in the basement, she couldnt tell where it was coming from, but she shut the water off to the basement til I got home. I asked her if it smelled, she said it smells like the cleaner I use when I glue pvc together. So I figured it was fresh water leaking from a water line. Nope when I got home one of the rubber boots on the check valve from the sump pump had slipped off, and the sump had kicked on (probably only once, not that much water) But it seriously smelled like pvc cleaner, and we never have sewer smell anymore. I put a small scoop in the shower drain before I take a shower, easy peasy, japaneesy. Thanks for this thread, I swear by the stuffThis is a tremendous savings. Thanks for posting. I swear by the stuff. When we got the boat the odor was annoying, specially during the winter layup. Have been using noflex religiously and zero odor. Have even started using this at home in the basement bathroom which is a pump.
Great thread! I'm moving away from NoFlex and going with Sodium percarbonate but trying to understand what sodium carbonate contributes? I know sodium percarbonate mixed with water liberates hydrogen peroxide...... becoming oxygen and water. But sodium carbonate and water react and liberate sodium hydroxide (a base) and carbon dioxide. What do those contribute to black tank digestion? I'm no wastewater engineer! Thanks in advance for any input.
Actually the Noflex liberates oxygen which feeds the bacteria which is what breaks down the waste and eliminates the odor.The two together are basically the ingredients of NoFlex. There is no digestion is that sense, only a chemical reaction. There no bacteria in the tank as a result of using NoFlex.

I would do it just for that reason….. that would be a fun experience. You get gloves?….. I’ll bring that up next timeI can’t get all the ingredients as easily in Canada. I’m in Florida and driving home around March 8th. I was thinking of stocking up here before we head home but worried about the latex glove cavity inspection I’ll get if the border cops find bags of white powder in the car.
I’m pretty sure the poopy powder encourages aerobic bacteria which doesn’t stink as bad as anaerobic bacteria that thrives in sewage that is low on oxygen.Just guessing here, but by the label "probiotic" would mean bacteria is being added.
The poopy powder is the opposite, it kills everything by over oxygenating it. Much like Oxy Clean.
