I have a travler 210 toilet and have to replace the bowl gaskets every 3 month and sometimes clean the mineral deposits off the rubber bowl gasket more often.
Are there any fixes to make the gaskets last longer?
The cost is about $40.00 each time

My guess is that stopping the mineral deposits to start with will cure the problem.
There must be a lot of hard water wherever you're travelling. Consider a portable water softener.

are you getting the NEW and improved gasket?
i ask because the ones with the two piece gasket is the problem not so much the minerals , the small gasket is just not up to the task,
the "improved" on is a take back to the previous one that worked, its all one piece and thicker rubber on the sealing area
our was replaced under warranty and it took ALL day on the phone with sealand/dometic for them to figure it out.
hope it helps
