Has anyone got any experience with this type of holding tank vent filter?
I asked the vendor if he knew what type of filter media went in it but have yet to receive a reply.
It appears to be priced right if it works. Otherwise I am kind of leaning towards a Big Orange filter, although I don't know much about them either.

First time I have seen this one. I just scored a sealand one for 25.00...on Ebay. Just have to look. That one looks like it is homemade.

You could make your own or recharge the existing one:

It's a couple of "P" traps with clean out drains from under a sink or schedule 40 PVC "U"s with access ports and a couple of fittings to adapt the ends. $7 tops at a big box store. Fill a couple of nylon knee high stockings with activated charcoal from a pet store and put one in each end. Attach it to the vent hose. Done. Maybe $20 total and that's enough charcoal for two years.

You could cut your existing filter in 1/2, refill it and re-attach it with PVC fittings for about $10 including charcoal.

Well, this just went on my list of things to do this Spring when the cover comes off. Geez, is that list ever getting long...

Thanks, David, Dennis et al...

There is a fellow CSR member that sells filters for about the same price on e-bay that look much better! I am going to buy one then recharge my old one as a back-up. I will post the link if I can find it.
