Fresh
Water
System
(Continued)
Draining
your
fresh
water
system
(required
for
winterization,
covered
in
the
centralized
docking
station
portion
of
this
manual,
when
the
RV
is
not
being
used
and/or
is
being
stored
in
the
cold
or
winter
months),
all
tanks
should
be
emptied.
This
will
prevent
damage
from
freezing.
Every
RV
has
low
point
drains
in
which
the
fresh
water
system
can
be
evacuated.
These
low
point
drains
will
be
located
on
the
off
‐
door
side
of
the
RV
near
the
water
heater
directly
beneath
the
RV
and
coming
out
of
the
underbelly.
These
are
shut
off
valves
that
can
be
opened
and
closed
with
a
thumb
turn.
Waste
Water
System
The
waste
system
contains
holding
tanks.
The
quantity
of
tanks
along
with
location
is
dictated
by
the
floor
plan
of
the
RV.
All
tanks
are
equipped
with
electric
heating
pads
that
can
be
controlled
in
the
monitor
panel.
Black
tanks
hold
toilet
waste.
There
are
some
things
to
note
with
black
tanks.
Black
tanks
typically
will
need
a
digester/deodorant
(talk
with
your
RV
dealer
for
recommendations).
Black
tanks
require
RV
toilet
paper.
RV
toilet
paper
breaks
down
quicker
and
is
specifically
designed
for
this
type
of
waste
water
system.
You’ll
find
that
this
toilet
paper
breaks
down
more
quickly
and
allows
the
waste
water
to
flor
more
easily
during
the
dumping
process.
A
black
tanks
monitoring
electronics
can
be
adversely
affected
by
debris
handing
up
on
the
reading
probes.
For
this
case,
we
have
installed
a
tank
flush
for
your
black
tank(s)
to
assist
in
keeping
the
probe
indicators
clean
so
that
you
have
accurate
readings
on
the
tank’s
levels.
Gray
tanks,
an
integral
part
of
the
waste
water
system.
Gray
tanks
hold
your
sink
and
shower
waste
water.
Gray
tanks
require
less
maintenance
due
to
the
difference
in
waste
produce
making
its
way
into
the
tank.
It
may
be
ideal
to
dump
black
tanks
first
and
then
your
gray
tanks,
the
gray
tank
running
thru
the
main
dump
will
help
in
keep
the
pipeline
cleaner.
Toilet
Alliance
RV
uses
the
best
in
class
310
series
Dometic
RV
toilet.
Each
toilet
is
100%
factory
tested
to
assure
watertight
seal
in
the
toilet
bowl
before
it
even
leaves
Dometic.
After
installation
by
Alliance
RV,
the
entire
waste
system
is
flood
tested
for
leaks
by
filling
the
system
with
water
to
the
rim
of
the
bowl.
To
use
the
toilet,
first
add
water
to
the
toilet
by
pressing
the
flush
pedal
only
partially
down.
Water
will
flow
into
the
bowl
while
the
flush
ball
remains
closed.
If
the
flush
ball
moves,
let
up
