    Water on floor

    Have not been able to use camper since last fall. I keep water in the toilet bowl. I hook up tt and tow it about 30 miles once a month. The last 2 times I have done this, there was water on the floor when I got back home. Not water on the floor before towing it. Is this a seal leaking?
    TIA

    How much water in the toilet bowl? Is it slopping over when braking? Try towing with only about 1/2 inch of water in the bottom. Only enough to keep the seal wet.

    When traveling I keep just enough water in the toilet so it comes up to where the throat meets the bowl proper. This keeps the seal covered but isn't so much it can slosh out of the bowl from driving conditions.

    We started emptying both toilets in 2010 when we noticed occasional water on the floor. Some of the roads we travel on are steep and rough. Since adding empty bowls to the checklist, no more water on the floor.
