    Black Tank Flush and Pocket Hoses ?

    Does anyone use a pocket hose like the Silver Bullet or the Top Brass Bullet for use on their black tank flush ? I have a dedicated black tank flush hose that I currently use it’s 50ft and I’m thinking of trying a pocket hose that is easier to mange and doesn’t take up as much space. I’ve also...

    Our sensors in the black tank will not go below 1/3 full, even after emptying. It will then go quickly to 3/4, even tho it isn't. My husband times how long it takes to empty and it isn't long. So we KNOW it isn't 3/4. We have filled it with water and put a solution purchased at RV store in...

    2016 Coachmen Prism 2150LE Black Tank Manufacturer?

    Does anyone know who makes the black holding tank for the coachmen prism line? There appears to be a name on it, but I cannot quite read it. I can see it just fine, but it is very blurry in the molding. There is a "QAI" stamp on it and what appears to be a manufacturers name below that. It...

I've posted 2 pics of my Sunseeker waste system from 2 different angles looking up (at least they are exposed). In trying to replace the valve I have...

    Black tank odor

    We have question about odors from the black tank at times after using toilet. We have a 2018 Palomino Compass and have been told that it is OK to use Pine Sol in tanks as an odor control. We were also told that Rid Ex is OK too but I have my doubts and wanted some advice from the FROG community.

    Black Tank Flush Hose Selection

    Funny question, but maybe not. Do you use the same hose you use for fresh water when you use the black tank hose flush? Was wondering if there is any recommendation and back flush issues? :eek: Thanks - Karl

    Black Tank Flush and pressure regulator?

    Been reading some posts and saw where someone suggested using a pressure regulator on Black Water Flush system? I totally understand why you would use this on your City Water Supply, to never over pressure your plastic lines or blow any fittings on the plastic trailer plumbing. However, seems to...

    I own an older 2004 Georgetown 326DS. I have owned it for almost 7 years. In the last year or so I noticed my Grey Tank/Blank Tank storage seems to have changed a bit. First, my Black Tank flush stopped working...I think. So experimenting a bit I have noticed that my toilet, kitchen sink and...

    Need adhesive for a crack in black tank.

    I have a small, about 1" crack in my black tank. It's way up high so it's only a problem if I let the tank get to full. It's in a difficult location, right on the trailing end corner where the tank sits on a piece of angle iron but it's accessible. I tried some of the "seen on TV" flex seal...

    Toilet is the only drain to black tank

    In our 2007 Navion, the toilet and bathroom sink both drained to the black tank. I know by code, the toilet and one other drain can (and should) drain to the black tank. I failed to ask about this when shopping and at PDI and just assumed the bathroom sink in our GT5 also drained to the black...
