    Grey Water leak, solved. Shower trap.

    Woke up this AM to a flood of grey soapy water on the camp site. Looked under the rug and it looked like the black tank was leaking. To make a long story short, the shower water trap came loose. All the shower water emptied into the insulation over the black tank and leaked over the side...

    What do you use to backflush grey water tank drain pipe

    My gray water tank is draining very slowly. I have checked the air admittance valve, the vent cap on the roof, check to make sure the valve was opening all the way and all seems to be working properly. So I am assuming that there is some type of clog in the opening for the drain for the gray...

    Grey Water Tank Leak

    Currently on a camping trip to make this even better. Top connection of the grey water tank is leaking. Where the drainage plumbing from the camper meets the tank is where the leak is at. I can see it with a mirror and flashlight and am able to barely feel some of it. Looks like I need to drop...

    Pros & cons (morally & legally) of dumping grey water.

    I suspect that most of us have found ourselves three or four days into a primative camping experience with a full grey water tank - "frustrating". At a few of our previous homes we've used our household grey water for lawn watering, mostly under the assumption that we were conserving resourses...

    Grey water not draining.

    I have a wildcat 375 mc and a full tank of grey water. Before I start tearing into the underside to get to the main grey dump valve, is there a second valve on this unit that I'm overlooking ? I see 3 valves, one for the rear bath, bath 1, and 2 for bath 2, grey and black. I'm sure hoping I'm...

    so an 18 wheeler blew a tire took out grey water line

    On my trip from Anchorage to Dallas I was behind an 18 wheeler when it blew a tire and there was a large chunk of tire that I ran over. It took out my grey water line, breaking off the gate valve at the Y at one end and all the way to the 90 degree turn on the other. I am comfortable...

    Grey water system leak?

    On my 2016 FWS Isata ,,washing dishes in the galley sink causes water to come out from under the shower pan. It could be a leak in the FW system which is located in the toilet , but I think its a leak in the line to the grey water line to the tank. Has anyone taken apart the area under the...

    My grey water to 3in sewer mod

    Ok it’s not really a “mod” as much as it’s my solution to a problem that never should have been a problem. We full hookup camp about 90% of the time. Family with young kids it’s just the only way to go. So why would forestriver not connect the grey water tank to the black 3in dump like EVERY...

    Winterizing Shasta 30BH

    I wanted to confirm what to do to winterize the trailer because I just picked it up half way through the season for a permanent spot. Should I be taking the paneling off underneath to fully drain the tanks or is using the drain on the side of the trailer enough? I know that I need to flush the...

    Store black/grey water drain hose in bumper?

    It's been suggested that I store the water drain hose in the hollow of the rear bumper. I'm concerned about it causing rust and rotting out the bumper. That happened on my spare tire carrier on my boat trailer and the carrier snapped and I dumped the spare tire in the middle of the freeway at 65...

    Grey water question

    Help, I'm replacing the gate valve which is basically simple unless you have my piping. 2012 Sierra 300RL 5th wheel. Ok so the gap is so narrow between the tank pipe and the discharge pipe for the gate to fit that the flanges won't stay in place. I even tryed vasolin to hold them while I put the...

    Grey water tank question.

    The capacity on our grey water tank on our 2861 is 39 gallons. Why oh why does it fill up after only one short shower and doing a few dishes? This would not work for boondocking. What tips/advice do any of you have so this tank doesn't fill up so fast? Do I wash my hands too much??

    Installing 2nd grey water tank

    I'm interested in adding a 2nd grey water tank and then splitting off the shower from the sink. I've searched online and can't find a supplier that sells the tanks along with the mounting rails that support the lip on each side of the tank. Ideas and thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
