Black Water & Grey Water Systems
Your RV toilet drains into the Black Water (sewage) holding tank.
The sinks and shower drain into the Grey Water (waste water)
holding tank.
• ALWAYS empty the black and grey water holding tanks
before traveling to avoid carrying unnecessary weight.
• If you are dry camping and cannot immediately empty
your holding tanks, reduce your vehicle speed until you
reach a dumping station.
• The Cargo Carrying Capacity of your RV is based on
empty holding tanks. Any additional weight for the
contents of your holding tank(s) reduces your Cargo
Carrying Capacity by the same amount.
Traveling with your holding tank(s) full could result
in the following conditions:
• Reduced available cargo capacity.
• Exceeding individual tire ratings and/or the
GAWR or GVWR.
• Potential damage to suspension components,
such as springs, tires and axles.
• Reduced hitch weight, if your RV holding tank(s)
are located behind the axles.
• Trailer sway and other handling difficulties,
as a result of the hitch weight being too light.
Toilet
Your RV toilet uses only one to three quarts ( or 1-3 liters ) of
water per flush, about
ten times less
than a residential toilet.
Additional water may be needed to flush solids from the drain
line into the holding tank.
•
ALWAYS continue to run water for an
extra 10-15 seconds after flushing .
•
NOT flushing with enough water, can result
in clogged pipes or tanks.
Plumbing Systems
NEVER travel with full black
or grey water holding tanks.
This not only wastes your
fuel but depending on the
location of the tank(s), it
can affect your tow vehicle
handling characteristics.
WARNING
DO NOT add automotive
antifreeze or caustic
chemicals such as laundry
detergents into the holding
tanks. Although these
products may have a
deodorizing effect, they
may damage the plastic
and rubber parts of the
plumbing system or the
components.
