Authoritative expert testimony on not using chemicals in septic systems. These are excerpts on this very question from universities all over the country:

http://www.inspect-ny.com/septic/septadds.htm

No additives chemical or bacterial

http://agbiopubs.sdstate.edu/articles/ExEx1035.pdf

Good article on RV specific septic additives and point out the damage to your RV from the most used chemicals to mask odors the aldehydes and their derivatives. Good list of chemicals to avoid using, and why, at the bottom. This article only addresses the chemicals not the enzyme/bacterial additives. From the University of Arizona.

http://ag.arizona.edu/pubs/water/az1233.pdf

Great explanation of the RV systems and chemicals, why some folks get odors and others don't due to poor tank, or tank vent, installation etc. Very in-depth. They recommend using only bacterial additives, but again the evidence is anecdotal.

RV owner’s reviews of brands, manufacturers, and dealers! A must see for prospective buyers. Direct feedback from very unhappy and happy campers about their dealer, manufacturer, and warranty support! You will know who to stay away from. Lots of "expose" reviews and horror stories. Not a replacement for membership in the RV Consumer’s group, but can tell ya how current owners have fared. Nice search by brand or dealer using keywords

http://www.rvreviews.com/

Tow ratings: Most ignored and critical data a new or experienced RVr needs to know. Match your vehicle and RV for your own safety on the road. Dealers tend to fib some on these critical issues, some knowingly, others out of ignorance. A few will lead ya right, but how do you know? Seen many a short bed truck pulling a fiver and had to repair the rig then get a slider hitch. Wouldn’t it be easier to have the full size bed ta start?
