    Full-time live-in: flush black at 2/3 or wait till full?

    In our 33 foot, full-time live in Cherokee, we've had the black tank overflow at least twice. With the 33 foot Cherokee, there is no tight seal where the toilet drain enters the tank, just a rubber collar where the pipe enters, with no clamp or other mechanism to secure it. And so when the tank...

    Black water tank fills with no usage

    Greetings! We are full time for the past two months, and we have a strange issue. 2019 Coachmen Mirada 35LS, bath and a half. We made the decision to use the half bath as the primary for "black water usage" as we do not have a direct way to empty the holding tanks except by using a tote. We do...

    Winterize city inlet/black flush

    I have a 2021 Geo pro and winterized today. Not a big deal having winterized Casita s over the years. Talked to a buddy who said these too need winterized. News to me. His trailer has a purge button behind screen under screen in the city water inlet. How do I do these in my geo pro?

    Black Tank Flush Pressure

    Our 2021 Alpha Wolf has the black tank flush hookup. Does anyone use an old pressure regulator when hooking the flush hose to flush the tank. I assume the plumbing to it is not made differently from the plumbing elsewhere in the camper so I worry that high water pressures could cause damage to...

    Disconnecting Black Tank Drain from Tank

    I cannot figure out how to remove the drain plubing from the black tank. It appears that the tank has a molded 3 inch pipe that is attached to the abs plumbing. A metal band was around part of it, but it is lossened and nothing really moves. Some type of black putty appears to hold the abs...

    Sealants for a cracked black tank made of LLDPE

    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...

    Grey water going to black tank

    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...

    Adding a black water flush??

    I see some of the fancier campers have a black water flush connection. Our camper blank tank sensor has only read correctly twice in it's life. Once when new and once after I borrowed some whirly spray nozzle from a neighbor. Worked great, but I don't like the idea of dragging a hose into my...

    Rookie mistake - Black tank flush leaks during flush

    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...

    Our 2020 GEO Pro 19FBS has a front window, and after spending just one night in it the white pleated shade on the inside became an issue. My wife and I are both light sleepers and we're woken at sunrise because the shade is too thin (and white!). I'm considering spray-painting the inside surface...

    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...

    I have a Della Terra 230RB. There is a black tank flush connection on the side of the trailer. There is a warning label attached that says do not use unless the fullway termination valve is in the open position. The owners manual does not mention this valve. Where is it located? TIA
