    Black tank smell/ vent plug

    Is it possible for the vent on roof for black tank to plug?. We have been getting an odor when we flush toilet.
    I have completely flushed the tanks twice. It has been noticed for a couple of weeks.
    Anyone had any experience with this problem.
    We are on full hookup, and it has been in the +90 deg here in AZ.
    Don’t know if temp has anything to do with it.
    Thanks

    I know I have encountered odors that were corrected by changing out the Air Admittance Valve. On mine, the valve was located under the bathroom sink.

    You also don’t want to flush when the fan is on. This will pull odors out of the tank and into the bathroom.
