Plumbing Systems and Holding Tanks

06-8

SPRAY

NOZZLE

Typical Utility Compartment

If the drain system does get clogged:

• Use a hand-operated probe to loosen stub-

born accumulations.

• Seriously clogged P-traps may require disas-

sembly. Be careful not to overtighten when

reassembling.

• Do not use harsh household drain cleaners.

• Do not use motorized drain augers.

• Sometimes the holding tank valve will get

clogged. In this case, a hand-operated auger

may be necessary. Be ready to close the valve

quickly once the clog is cleared. If the seal

gets damaged, it is easily replaced.

Cold Weather Usage

The holding tank(s) area is heated through ducts

from the coach heating system. To prevent hold-

ing tank freeze up, the furnace thermostat should

be set to maintain a minimum of 35 degrees

Fahrenheit in the holding tank(s) area, Be aware

that exposed drains may freeze quickly.
