    Draining Black/Grey tanks

    Is there a FAQ or process listed somewhere for draining the tanks? I've searched and can't locate anything specific. I know you need to save your grey tank for last, but what is the process? Does it change for camp site septic, portable black tank, or dump station? I think it's probably the...

    Dual Sewer Drains

    I just got a 2016 Wildcat 31SAX and the brochure says 60gal fresh, 68gal gray and 68gal black. The spec sites say 1 tank each, but there are two sewer drains about 16’ apart, and both have black and gray valves and there are two black tank flushes in the universal dock. My question is, what is...

    Fresh water tank drain valve open or closed?

    When not using is the consensus (if your not storing water in it) to leave it open and rubber band a screen over it? Not worry about bugs getting in? Close it?

    Low point drains

    Today I installed a pair of ball valves on the hot and cold low point drains located near the entry door on the curb side. It will be easier and more reliable than unscrewing the pipe plug when I need to drain the lines. I noticed on the street side of the unit, just behind the tires...
