Very GOOD point!
This is a little point that can be easy to miss but make big issues to solve.
We have become more aware of this over time and it is super simple to test if we think about it.
We want the stool seal to be tight and good enough to keep odor from coming up into the RV and one way to do this and make it somewhat obvious when it fails is in the the adjustment of the stool.
If we don't want odor to come up it has to seal well enough to not allow water to go down! There are often adjustments on the way this seal and the water work, so it can be a good clue if we adjust the stool to close the seal a couple seconds before the water stop flowing as we flush. This leaves a thin layer of water on top of the seal and that lets us do an easy check of the seal working right!
As long as the stool winds up with a thin layer of water on top of the seal and it stays there, we know the seal is working right.
Maybe worth doing a quick look next rip out?
