black water

After dumping and flushing the black water tank, we always pump back in 5 or so gallons. For winterizing, does everyone completely drain the tank or just put some rv antifreeze down the toilet? Also, do most leave the grey tank valves open or closed? I figure I can leave the valve open and put...

I have a 2017 primetime santabel and my black tank gate sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. I believe it's clogged but I am getting more liquid and feces out after a lot of Dawn dish detergent and a enzyme breakdown liquid. My question is can I add a twist on gate to the exit hose so I can...

How do I get to my waterline thar runs to black tank flush? I have some water coming out of discharge but also water on other side of motor home coming into outdoor storage area

Hi! We have this model and I was under the impression that we only have one black water tank. However the rear toilet is full so obviously not! Can anyone tell me where the location is for the rear black water valve so I can empty it? The other ones are all on the left side and I can't for...

My black water valve is leaking and filling my drain pipe past all the valves. Lucky I have a valve on the end where you connect the sewer hose. I have a 2019 331K Cedar Creek Silverback. Can anyone out there help with what the part number and manufacture is for this valve and what length pull...

Today, I was leaving the campground and stopped to dump black and gray tanks. Someone was ahead of me and I noticed that they had the hose at the dump station pushed up into their black tank and pushing water up into the tank. As they were filling the tank, some of the water was leaking out, I...

I just purchased a 2024 Forest River alpha Wolf. I had to back it into a field to park it. When I did the long grass ripped the valve off the black water tank and the grey water tank. Is there a way to fix this on my own or will I need to bring it in? The valves seemed excessively long to begin...

I have a two year old unit and I have had the cable on the black water valve kink up and bend the handle twice. I have asked my service tech to change this valve out to an electric valve. He tells me this is not a guarantee fix and that I don't want to do this. Has anyone done this and what were...

I am really new to the RV world. I have owned my Wolf Pup 28RJB for about a week. We went camping for 3 days on the day we got it and upon arriving back in town, realized we had no idea how to empty the black water and grey water tanks. A quick search on Google and we were able to get them...

Bought a 2017 Sunseeker 2500TS late last year, and never used it long enough to bring the waste tanks up until this season. Imagine my surprise when the black water tank was full, but still showed empty! After a LOT of searching, found these badly made tank sensors. There is a plastic sleeve...

Hey yall, I have a 2023 No Boundaries 20.3. Just wrapped up a trip today and when I was emptying the black water tank, I bent the rod thats attached to the handle closing it. Question, is this an easy fix? hoping I can just order the part, unscrew old rod, and screw in new one....Or, do I...

Has anyone replaced their black water flush connector where the water hose connects? I could not find a thread on anyone replacing this piece. If I take the 3 mount screws out, will it pull out enough to get to the back? What type of connection is on the back? Threaded, Pex crimp or? My thread...

I am looking for some advice on how to get a black water drain clog cleared. I opened black water tank and it started to flow then stopped. Has anyone had success using typical home drain clearing chemicals without damaging RV tanks, seals or shut off valves? I have ordered a RV product called...

Salem vista 2023 40RLB-8. The unit has an exterior hose connection to flush out the black tank. Upon connecting water supply, Nothing. It is plugged I figure. What am I missing.

Looking for location and accessing of my B&B valve on my 2017 V-Lite.

Hi all - we are camped out for the eclipse the next few days, and have noticed a slow leak from a square fitting (gate valve?) just after the black tank where it connects to the drain line eventually leading to the outside. Am trying to determine the best way to patch this without pulling...

Hello, we've got a 2024 Arctic Wolf Fifth Wheel, and I'm hoping someone might be able to help me understand a leak we recently had in our black water system, while running the flush. After having drained the black water tank, we were using the flush to clean it, and believe we accidentally left...

Not sure when it started, but certainly the first time the BWT got more than 1/2 full, when it was drained it continued to indicate 1/3 full. I have done 3 rounds of BWT Flushing and no change. Things I am considering. Use a wand through the toilet to flush it. (Difficult logistically to get a...

The handle (and metal rod) popped out on the grey water valve on my 2015 351DS. And while I got it popped back in, I figure the best thing to do is to replace both valves before it becomes worse and I can't open the grey (or worse, the black) valves. I also figure if I do one I might as well do...

Good evening y’all. I just purchased a new Arurora 34BHTS and when I hook up the hose to flush black tank no water flows into tank. Anyone ever have this issue? Thanks!

2/6/24/about 4pm I connected to the CITY WATER connection. About 30 hours later, the black water tank backed up through the toilet. How can this happen?? Additional info.. The faucet in the bathroom sink does have a steady drip and I left the grey water tank on drain because of planning to...

Does anyone use a black water above ground holding tank? I want to try this method as it is only my wife and me, and only for 2 to 7 nights in our TT on our property. When we travel, we stay at places where we can dump, but when we use our TT as a temp spot on our own property, I think it would...

Have a black water flush water leak after hooking up water hose. Not leaking at the black water flush connection but from under the coach, leaking fresh water clean water. Have unscrewed the connection and it’s not leaking from the connection. Understand there is some type of inline check valve...

Hello there, new to the travel trailer world. With temps dropping Ive been getting ready to do some cold weather camping. I have a No Bo 20.3 (2023 model). I noticed the warmer light on the rocker switch for my fresh water tank (might be grey) works fine, but the light for the black water...

My question is this: are the black water tank flushing systems adequate to clean the BWT for going into storage for the winter? In the past I've run ten or fifteen gallons of water in the tank through the toilet and then pull our 5th wheel down the road for a few miles and then drain it. I...
