black tank

My wife and I have been RV'ers since the late nineties and have owned eleven rv's including three class A's, three fifth wheels and we just bought our fifth travel trailer Our first outing in our "New To Us" 2014 The Vibe 6504 was a two day stay in a park about an hour from our home...

We have question about odors from the black tank at times after using toilet. We have a 2018 Palomino Compass and have been told that it is OK to use Pine Sol in tanks as an odor control. We were also told that Rid Ex is OK too but I have my doubts and wanted some advice from the FROG community.

Has anyone figured out a practical way to move grey water to the black tank? After 2 month on the road I find the black tank will have a lot of space and the grey is full. :trink39:

Funny question, but maybe not. Do you use the same hose you use for fresh water when you use the black tank hose flush? Was wondering if there is any recommendation and back flush issues? :eek: Thanks - Karl

Help needed to find Black Tank Rinse leak and anti-siphon valve Im in the same boat (no pun intended) evidently as many others, SO, maybe some one can help find my anti siphon valve on a 2019 GeoPro G19FD. I emailed the factory and the dealer: I was rinsing my black water tank last weekend...

Our Freedom Express has a black tank flush valve that is right below the city clean water connection. When I check under the sink, the two water lines seem to connect. How does this black tank flush take this to the toilet tank when there is a common line connection inside the RV? I get that...

Been reading some posts and saw where someone suggested using a pressure regulator on Black Water Flush system? I totally understand why you would use this on your City Water Supply, to never over pressure your plastic lines or blow any fittings on the plastic trailer plumbing. However, seems to...

I own an older 2004 Georgetown 326DS. I have owned it for almost 7 years. In the last year or so I noticed my Grey Tank/Blank Tank storage seems to have changed a bit. First, my Black Tank flush stopped working...I think. So experimenting a bit I have noticed that my toilet, kitchen sink and...

I have a small, about 1" crack in my black tank. It's way up high so it's only a problem if I let the tank get to full. It's in a difficult location, right on the trailing end corner where the tank sits on a piece of angle iron but it's accessible. I tried some of the "seen on TV" flex seal...

Is there a schematic available for the 2015 DX3? When I try to use it, I am getting a leak of clean water into the service area. Edit: This is not a high pressure issue, the first time I tried this I had a regulator on the system at 40psi, the dialed that down to 20 and still had water...

I have a river stone 5th wheel with 1-1/2 baths. I understand that means two black tanks. One valve in control panel department. Is ther a second valve to do please the 2nd tank and is so where in the heck is it. Help

In our 2007 Navion, the toilet and bathroom sink both drained to the black tank. I know by code, the toilet and one other drain can (and should) drain to the black tank. I failed to ask about this when shopping and at PDI and just assumed the bathroom sink in our GT5 also drained to the black...

Lately I have had the black wooden supports move out from under the black and grey tanks toward the door. This happens when the tanks are empty or very little in them. Should this be happening?

I hooked up a short garden hose to the black tank flush fitting on the back, exterior wall of my TT and turned on the water. I was hoping the inside of my black tank would self-clean, instead I ended up flooding the floor of my TT with water. Did I do something wrong? The black tank was less...

The dealer in the walk through told us that after dumping the black tank and using the black tank flush to close the black tank valve before opening the gray tank valve. A lot of the posts that I have read say to leave the black valve open while draining the gray, and I am wondering if my...

I know both black and gray tanks are empty but the indicator lights on how full the tanks remain on. The gray tank light shows 2/3 full and the black tank light shows 1/2 full. Any thoughts would be appricated.

2017 MBS Forester has an LCI wall mount "tablet" for slide, awning functions and gauges for propane, fresh water black and gray tanks. All function normally accept for the black tank. The black tank shows EMPTY with any and all levels of waste in the tank. I can't find any responses to gauge...

Hello, so we have a new wolf pack 23+15. I'm a bit curious about this black tank flush. My manuals don't say anything about it. From what I see, the bottom port has a quick disconnect that seems to have pressure to it right now. I went to plug a quick disconnect hose into it and it covered me...

What did we ever do before the advent of black tank flushes! There seems to be a plethora of recent (within the last year or so) threads about the need for a squeaky clean black tank flush after EVERY dump. I simply don't understand that. Yes, I have a black tank flush and use it on occasion...

Tried to use the black tank flush and what a disappointment, I could have left that on for 1hr and wouldn't have even 1/2filled the tank, Any one get little to no flushing on this ? We have a Brand new 2511s ,1st time using the flusher.

Hello all... first post, and my first travel trailer! Im actually loving it as we learn along the way. Recently just returned from Yosemite National Park and have a question about FLUSHING the Black Tank: HOW DO YOU DO IT? Is there a connection for a Black Tank Flush on the 25 FKS, if not...

I was wondering if anybody has the same model camper I have a Salem Hemisphere GLX 273 RL this is a 2020 model camper. I noticed on the outside of the camper I have a black tank and also have a waste water holding tank are these two separate tanks,when I go to flush the black tank it will not...

I have a question for the master plumbers here on the forum. This past weekend, I started to get a leak from the cheap plastic vacuum breaker in the black tank flush line on my new 5er. So I’m going to remove it and use something else. I looked up the plastic part (JR Products 571-VAC-CHK-A)...

Went out to dump my black tank and the handle came off in my hand. I know this is a big problem. Am living in the RV for summer job in the Badlands. Am about seventy miles from Rapid City. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good place to take it for repair or for that matter who to...

I’ve read many speculations here about the operation of the tank flush valve. Everything from a spinning outlet to just a hose sticking down into the tank. The vacuum valve on my MH failed a while back and ever since fixing it I’ve noticed reducing water flow to the tank flush. When it finally...
