Waste Water System
The waste drainage system was designed to provide
adequate and safe storage and/or disposal of waste
materials. All of the materials used in the making of this
system are tested by a nationally recognized testing
laboratory. The drainage system uses plastic piping and
fittings connected to the sinks, toilet, and holding tanks.
This provides for their drainage to an outside termination.
The unit should be reasonably level for best operation
of the system. There are two separate waste systems.
The gray water system is for waste water from the sinks
and shower. The black water system is generally for
sewage waste from the stool. Each tank has its own
control valve, and both tanks drain through the sewer
drain hose.
The drainage system also includes vents that carry odors
caused by drain water and waste out of the RV, while also
equalizing air pressure. Drain clean outs are provided to
clean lines between fixtures and holding tanks.
Drainage P-traps
By code, all drains are equipped with P-traps to keep
holding tank odors from entering the vehicle. If you detect
a foul odor, which you believe is from your holding tanks,
add water to all drains to ensure that your P-trap water
hasn’t evaporated from long term storage or splashed
out of the sink and shower drain while traveling. Places
to add water include the kitchen sink, bathroom sink,
shower/tub, wet bar sink, and the washer/dryer drain.
Black Water Holding Tank
The tanks should be emptied frequently, or as indicated
on the monitor panel and especially before travel.
Note
MOST STATES HAVE LAWS PROHIBITING EMPTYING
SEWAGE ANYWHERE BUT AN APPROVED DUMPING
STATION.
While camping, it is normal practice to leave our GRAY
WATER HOLDING TANK valve open if your campsite is
equipped with sewer hook-up. NEVER leave the BLACK
WATER TANK valve open while using the coach. Since
the system utilizes gravity to empty, the BLACK WATER
TANK will not drain properly unless it has sufficient liquid
to help drain out the solids.
Dual Gray Holding Tanks
Some models are equipped with two gray holding tanks
due to the floor plan. You must use the dump lever
for each tank to empty the contents. Pulling the dump
lever for one tank will not empty the other. The second
holding tank has its own termination valve. The gray
water holding tank is primarily used for drainage from
the kitchen and bath sink and shower.
Emptying Holding Tanks
To empty the holding tanks, be certain that your RV is
level since the process depends upon gravity. Remove
the sewage drain hose from its storage location, below
the docking center. Remove the cap from the termination
outlet and connect the drain hose.
To drain either holding tank, pull out the TERMINATION
VALVE (see photo on next page) by pulling out the
dump valve slide handle. Close the valve after the tank
has drained. Flush or pour about two gallons of water
through the toilet when emptying the black tank and
drain again. This flushes the tank and helps clean the
drain hose. Repeat as necessary.
