SECTION 8 - PLUMBING SYSTEMS

Unlike a toilet in a home, which uses four to seven gallons (18 - 32 liters) of water
per flush, the average recreation vehicle system uses one to three quarts (1 - 3
liters). For added convenience and better sanitation system performance, it is
advisable to always have four to six inches (10 - 15 cm) of water in the toilet.
To prevent toilet blockage, always use RV grade single-ply toilet paper. Do not
flush paper towels, diapers, sanitary napkins or other foreign objects down the RV
toilet.
Sewage (black) tank preparation
1. Release one to two quarts (1 or 2 liters) of water into the toilet bowl.
2. Follow the directions on your toilet chemical bottle (customer supplied), by
placing the recommended quantity of holding tank chemical into the toilet
bowl.
3.
Flush the toilet and allow at least two gallons (8 liters) of water to flow into the
holding tank.
Waste (grey) holding tank preparation
No special preparation is required, however, placing a small quantity of chemicals
into this tank, such as baking soda or an approved RV chemical, will reduce odors
from food particles in the system.
Cleaning & Maintenance
The toilet should be cleaned regularly for maximum sanitation and operational
efficiency. Do not use chlorine (undiluted) or caustic chemicals, such as laundry
bleach or drain opening types, in the toilet system. These products damage the
seals in toilets and dump valves.
WARNING
It is important to add enough water to prevent solid waste buildup. Follow the
directions listed below and in the manufacturer’s operator manual.
