I got this response from Forest River for my 2004 FR Cardinal 32ft fifth wheel:
"Our fresh water tanks and holding tanks are composed of “linear low density” polyethylene (LLDPE) material. The “linear” term refers to the polymerization of ethylene with longer-chain olefins. LLDPE is a...
Am I the only one who just realized you can take the Mfgr issued blue coil quick connect to run the Black Flush outlet without having to run a hose over?
Facepalm…
Hello all! I have a 2004 Forest River Cardinal 32ft fifth wheel with a crack in the black tank, we took off the metal sheeting and we can see it, maybe 5"-6" long or so, and the water is coming through it pretty strong. It's in the side of the tank. The only dealership we can get to doesn't...
I was using the pump to drain water that I had in the fresh tank and opened the kitchen and bathroom faucets. Black and grey tanks were empty to start with. I was surprised that when I went to dump, the water was in both the grey and black tanks. I am guessing that it is the kitchen sink that...
I caused a problem with my black tank flush. I made a rookie mistake at the start of this season. I thought I was filling my fresh water tank and instead I had the hose connected to the black tank flush inlet. Well, I notice the error once the black tank filled and it force an explosion of water...
Oh Boy,
I wonder if any one ever had this happen.
My daughter borrowed my rv to tailgate at a football game. She just emailed me that she heard that saving the dish water and dumping it into the black tank was a good idea before the long ride home. My problem is she didn't see the fork that...

My black tank on my 2004 FR Cardinal 32ft fifth wheel has developed a large crack. The FR repair contact person advises that trying to fix it is not advisable. I'm searching for a replacement tank and having no luck. Advice sought.
Geeeeez, installed a black water tank flush in our TT last week and just got to use it this morning..... WOW... down right love it. Where have you been all my life.... Bring-It-On baby..... :anim_snoopy: talk about easy. May have to get my friends to come over and use my tank so I can do it...
Have been getting some bypass of the sanitary valve which is messy and embarrassing when we dumped. I order new seals and replaced today. Our unit is an ex rental and I think that explains the piece of cloth I found stuck in the valve. Our valve is controlled by an electric servo that opens and...
Another question or I'm looking for reassurance...
I want to clean out my black tank, like deep clean it. Yes I emptied and flushed it before we left the campground. I want to do this at home, add some Commando cleaner and fill the tank with water. It's it safe to pull the trailer with a full...
What am I missing here? So I've used my dedicated 15' hose a hundred times...attaching it to this connection and tightening it perfectly. This last time I could not get it to tightly connect and it spewed like a hose at a water park. I inspected the edge and determined that it looked like the...
Hi All, I searched and read a few threads about tanks falling out but haven't seen anything like my issue. We were flushing the black tank yesterday and it fell off the frame that held it. There were no straps or support below the tanks as others have mentioned. We have a 2018 FR Sandpiper...
Hello,
When I use my black tank flush, I generally will drain black tank while its running, close valve and fill black tank to about 2/3rds, open valve and drain, repeat about 3 or 4 times. Like the title says when I do this the inside of the rv starts to smell like sewer gas and I generally...
Has anyone had their black tank pipe bracket fail within 6 months of production or 3 months of ownership?
The other one is from the gray which is still holding.
First post so hopefully I don't get bashed too hard. I did try to search every possible way I could think of.
I am borrowing my stepdad's 2019 25RQGMX and am trying to figure out if what I'm looking at is a black tank flush hookup. There are a total of 3 water hose connections on it, 2 over on...
Hi, we just bought a 2017 Flagstaff Highwall HW29SC and I have a question about treating the black tank. This is our first camper so I’m trying to learn as much as I can before we take a trip. When it comes to treating the black tank with a typical toilet treatment product, my understanding is...
So maybe a stupid question but I've been told the only stupid questions are the ones not asked. Anyways...
So I have a black tank flush port on my camper. I also have an exterior sprayer port with quick disconnect and a blue coiled hose that has a nozzle attached. Is there anything I need to be...
So here’s an odd issue maybe someone can help with. My new 2021 CC 371FL black and tanks don’t seem to be acting right. He rig has 2 tanks, one for the front half bath and one for the rear full bath. The last time I drained the tanks I thought they were empty, no more was coming out even though...
What the...? I just bought a 2018 Sonoma 220MBH from a nice couple in their late 60s. They bought upgrades and an 8 yr extended warranty (dang sales people!!) Anyway, the previous owners only used the rv about 5 times max. Five months out of its first year, it was all warranty work. I have the...
Hi,
I have a Forester 2015 2861DS. The black tank flush is not working. Already verified that the anti-syphon valve is working and am now trying to see if there is access to the nozzle itself. I am thinking that it may be in the 4" x 4" box than runs across the side wall behind the toilet...
I empty my black tank and in day 1/2¹ shows full. Only 2 of us and we are careful on water usage. Seems to be new. Used to camp 3 nights and 2/3 full
When empty gauge shows empty
Have a 2021 GT7, hooked the black tank flush up for the first time after getting ready to pull out from our first week out. As soon as I turned the water on it started pouring out from above the hookups in the compartment and spraying inside the laundry closet. Water even came out the external...
I have a 2009 cardinal 3515, inside the outdoor shower box are where my handles are for the black tank and the grey tanks. Well about two feet back from there on the main line is another handle. What is that for and can I leave it open? Thanks for the help.
