    2016 Salem 31qbts (new to us)

    Hi everyone, We just got a ‘16 Salem 31qbts about 2 months ago. We’ve been out 4 times already with another 3/4 trips planned for the rest of the summer. We love the camper but my one grip is that where the black/gray tank empties is way underneath the camper. I practically have to get on my...

    Black tank flush backflow

    I just purchased a 2019 Wildcat 31BH, when I disconnect the hose from the black tank flush I get a significant amount of water coming back out. Is this normal?

    Black tank valve

    I have a Cedar Creek 2007 5th wheel. I need to order a valve for my black tank but have no clue where to go to find what valve I need to order. Is there a site that I can go to for a older model? I am assuming it’s not that hard to replace. Thank you for any help.

    2018 Avenger Black Tank Flush Issue

    I've noticed that when I connect the water hose to the black tank flush fitting on the side of the camper I get a ton of leaking outside and last weekend inside at the anti-siphon valve. I can hear the device spinning inside the tank (and see water coming out the tank drain) so I know that some...

    Waste Master with dual black tanks? HELP

    We are taking delivery of our brand new 5th wheel, Rockwood 2892rb tomorrow. We've never dealt with dual black tanks, but are not terribly concerned about it. What we WOULD like to know is if anyone else is using the Waste Master system with dual black tanks and what components you've used to...

    Black Tank Odor

    I know there are many threads about the Black Tank Vent pipe, but I couldn't find my exact issue. We are seasonal campers. We dump out black tank Sunday and by Wednesday or Thursday when we go back out and flush the tank, the odor is terrible. After several flushes it seems to get a little...

    Black Tank Odor Question

    We purchased our Windjammer 2 years ago. We had a Wilderness trailer for 9 years before. We’ve always used Happy Camper tank treatment and never had odor in the Wilderness. In the Windjammer, the bathroom starts smelling when the black tank gets full. The odor goes away after dumping. I...

    Black tank flush

    I have a 2019 Wildcat Maxx 285RKX 5th wheel. For the past 5 years I have been using a black tank flush on a previous trailer by ensuring that my valve is open and draining, I open the water flush hose to flush the black tank--at which point I can hear it flushing the tank. On this 2019...

    Want to flush black tank, but slide out covers door to bathroom

    I'm sure this has been talked about before, but I was not able to find it via search. I just bought a 2011 Wildwood 26TBSS. I've had it out twice, once with full hookups, once with water/electricity only. At the full hook up site, I was able to drain the black tank while hooked up to city...

    New Member Intro

    Well, I've been looking to "get off the ground" for a couple years now and finally found a camper that I think is going to be both a challenge and a lot of fun! It's a 1983 16S (funlite?) that is good structurally, but has some issues that I'll be asking for help on sooner or later :D The PO has...

    Black tank vent and rinsing

    Is installing a Camco Cyclone or 360 Siphon a worthy upgrade for the black water tank vent? Our last trip we really noticed the tank odor in the bathroom. Do these work or are they a waste of time? I’m also looking into buying the Camco Tornado to flush the tank after each trip. I have a Camco...

    Black tank fell

    So.........fun stuff. I have a 2012 Crusader 35BHQQ. One of the black tanks somehow fell out of the angle iron brackets holding it up. I cut the underbelly open, poked around til I figured out that one side angle iron is welded up, one is bolted. Removed the bolted bracket, removed the...

    Black Tank

    So I have been reading some post on issues with black tank flush. Some people said to open toilet valve and U should be able to see the bottom of the black tank. I have had issues with it draining very slow so I just looked inside and my toilet is on a pipe that heads toward the bedroom. And the...

    Black tank doesn’t drain real well. Is there a black tank flush setup on this model?

    3050S Black Tank Flush

    So does the black tank flush on the Sunseeker have jets on it or is it just a way to fill the black tank with water without having to flush the toilet? I know you’re not supposed to run it with the tank closed but I did put water in it and water did fill up about 1/3 of the way but I never...

    Black tank vented, or not??

    I've had my Cedar Creek for five years, only very minor issues. One thing I remain curious about, is the black tank actually vented? The reason I say this is that when my black tank gets to be about 3/4 full, it starts to burp when flushing the commode. I've seen this mentioned by lots of...

    Gray/Black tank monitor incorrect

    My 2019 Georgetown XL 369 recently began giving me incorrect level readings on the main monitor panel above the door. After emptying the tanks completely, both gray and black are reading 3/4 and 1/2 full respectively. Anyone have any ideas to reset or correct. Thanks.

    Gray into Black Tank vs Tornado Black Tank Rinse

    We're going to take pick up our new 2019 Puma at the end of the month. I noticed it has one black tank valve, one grey tank valve and the another smaller grey valve/handle. The TT only has one black tank and one grey tank according to all the specs I've seen. Did I think to take a picture? Of...

    New owners, black tank flush question.

    Hello. We are new XLR Boost owners. First think I'd like to do is thank everyone on this forum. I have learned so much here. Been able to find answers to many questions I've had. We had a TT many years ago but things have changed quite a bit in some aspects on these new trailers. Our trailer...

    I5 DS Black Tank vent

    Question. If my Black Tank was full, can the black water back up the vent stack and push back through the Bath Lav sink ‘P’ trap and fill the sink with black water? Or does the ‘P’ prevent that from happening?

    Black Tank Flush Issue

    A few weeks back when I first used the black tank flush there was water pouring out my wheel well and some inside on the floor of my 2018 Isata 4 25FW. Brian sent the fresh water drawing for the unit, and I removed the panel under the bathroom sink and found one of the PEX fittings connected...

    Is this the Black Tank Flush?

    Been struggling with my black tank flush for awhile now. Worked great when new. Replaced the back flow preventer and have done several tank soaks as well. Kinda gave up thinking the nozzle was likely plugged and buried somewhere inaccessible. While cleaning today I noticed this and thinking it...

    Black tank valve leaking

    After our last 2 drives we hook up the sewer hose as usual EXCEPT, lots of black water rushes out when the sewer cap is removed from the MH. Is it unusual for this valve to leak? It doesn’t leak between empties when stationary. We check it before we pull the valve. Has anyone experienced...

    Black Tank Drain Hose Help

    My wife and I are new to RVing and I would like to get a good grasp on what you experienced RV people think is a good tough black water hose. How long should it be? I like the idea of the clear plastic fittings so you can see what's going on. I have seen a ramp type of hose holder advertised...
