Well, I've tried my own fluid mix. A quarter cup borax and a quarter cup pine cleaner in the lower tank and dash more of pine cleaner in the upper tank. Works well for us. The tank is emptied about once a month. Items are dissolved well and odor is kept down. A giant jug of pine clean and a big box of borax cost me about $10. This should last me 2 years or more by my math. FYI is anyone wants to try. No guarantees if you use a pump out.

I thought that I had found the solution to the high cost of potti fluid by adding PineSol. Several months later the gasket on the dump gate in the potti failed by curling-would not close after it was opened. This was on an older potti-be sure to check that the gasket is compatible with the PineSol.
