The Amazon ad says it's made by Valterra, but the packages do not say Valterra anywhere.

Recommendation - check the size of the holes in the nozzle. My last coach had a factory installed system that plugged because the nozzle hole size was too small. The solution to the problem was to over drill the nozzle holes by an additional 1/32nd inch. It might be easier to over drill 1/32 before installation rather than to install the system and then have to remove the system for cleaning and over drilling later. A lesson learned with my problem is to stay away from the treatments that come in "drop in" pod form. The plastic around the pod did not dissolve as advertised and plugged the nozzle. It is liquid only going forward.

As to the TP for use. I ran the tests on various brands to include the RV recommended papers and found that the only difference between Angel Soft and the RV TP is about 2.00 per pack. The Angel Soft in most cases dissolved better than the RV/camping toilet paper. Since my house is on an AOSS (high dollar septic system with air compressor, three tanks and agitator) the TP used in the house is more important/critical than what is used in the RV. In my case what's good for the house is more than good for the RV.
