    Does the black water flush spray or run in or what?

    Wondering about the black water flush on the side of the NoBo 16.2. I've used it but I'm wondering what it does inside the tank. Does it spray around like a turbo spinner or just pour out into the tank. Wondering if I need a spray wand anyway to double check for a clean tank at end of season.
