Plumbing Systems and Holding Tanks
Replace sewer or dump station covers.
Please...Practice good housekeeping when
draining wastes at a campsite or disposal sta-
tion. Leave the site in good order. Above all, do
not pollute.
Holding Tank Care
Since holding tanks don’t rely on any sophisti-
cated mechanical devices for their operation,
they are virtually trouble-free. The most com-
mon problem is also an unpleasant one – clog-
ging. You can minimize the chances of clogging
by keeping the following considerations in mind:
• Keep the black water tank knife valve
closed. Fill tank to at least
3
⁄
4
-full before
draining. Be sure to cover the tank bottom
with water after draining.
• Use only toilet tissue formulated for use in
septic tank or RV sanitation systems.
• Keep both knife valves closed and locked,
and the drain cap tightly in place when
using the system on the road.
• Use only cleaners that are approved for use
in septic tank or RV sanitation systems.
• Use a special holding tank deodorant chem-
ical approved for septic tank systems in the
black water holding tank. These chemicals
aid the breakdown of solid wastes and make
the system much more pleasant to use. Do
not put facial tissue, paper, ethylene glycol-
based or other automotive antifreeze, femi-
nine hygiene products or household toilet
cleaners in the holding tanks.
• Do not put anything solid in either tank
that could scratch or puncture the tank.

CAUTION
Do not use the same hose you use for filling the
potable water tank, or for connection to the city water
inlet. This is especially true if you the connect the
quick connect hose to the typical rinsing hoses at
most dumping stations. Use of a different hose will
insure that you will not contaminate your fresh water
supply.
