Greetings, fellow R-Podders!  Please help if you can.  We moved to Montana on the promise the cabin we rented would be available on our arrival.  Unfortunately we have now been in our R-Pod for a month in below freezing temperatures and of course, you know it’s a 3 season RV.  We’ve had frozen pipes, and we believe that has affected our toilet.  There is a pyramid plug we cannot dissolve.  We have used chemicals, snakes, hot water, salt...all to no avail.  We’ve cleaned our grey & black tanks out but nothing budges this sludge.  Please, anyone ~ ideas are very welcome.  Happy RVing all!  Avoid the snow...😏

This is something that you may need to take a high pressure hose down from the toilet to dislodge. One thing that will help, but make it unusable for a couple of days is to take and use a good biological agent. Look at TankTech's web site. There are some videos there that may help you.
