What to Put in Holding Tanks
Grey Water Tank:
The grey water waste tank stores the sink,
shower and clothes washer (if equipped) drain
water. A reduced mixture of chemicals may
help to control odor in the grey tank.
Ensure that there is enough liquid in the
holding tanks prior to dumping the waste
holding tanks to provide a smooth flow
through the valve, termination drain and sewer
hose. Empty the waste holding tanks weekly to
prevent stagnation and overfilling.
Black Water Tank:
To help prevent buildup, pre-treat the sewage
holding tank with a few gallons of water and
an odor-control chemical (available at most
RV supply stores). First, add approximately
three gallons of water to the holding tank.
Next, add the chemicals, in accordance with
the manufacturer instructions. Pour mixture
through toilet to the holding tank. Be careful
not to spill the chemical on hands, clothing,
toilet bowl or carpet. Hot weather conditions
may require adjusting the amount of chemical
used to control odor. Repeat the chemical pre-
charge each time the black tank is cycled.
WARNING:
Most chemical mixtures for holding
tank odor control are poisonous.
Follow the product manufacturer’s
directions and warnings when using
holding tank additive. Do not use
products that contain petroleum
distillates or ammonia in place of RV
odor controlling chemical. Petroleum
distillates or ammonia will damage
ABS plastic and termination seals.
Waste Drain Hose
A flexible three-inch sewer hose attaches
between the common termination drain and the
shore sewer facility. Sewer hoses usually come
in 10 and 20 foot lengths.
The shore fitting for the sewer hose may be a
three or four-inch, male or female thread pipe;
or a four-inch pipe with no threads, covered
by a metal plate. Different style of adapters
are available to fit most configurations. Hose
ladders may also be purchased to support the
hose.
It is important that the hose remains secure.
Always tighten clamps and restraining devices
before use. Lay the sewer hose inline between
the termination drain and the shore fitting.
Restrain the hose to prevent movement during
use. Wear protective and/or disposable gloves
when handling the sewer hose.
Sewer Hose Storage
The recreational
vehicle comes
equipped with a
sewer hose storage
compartment in the
rear bumper.
LUBE:
Periodically
lubricate the O-
ring on the sewer
hose adapter
with silicone
spray.
To Attach the Sewer Hose:
Remove sewer hose from storage.
Remove termination cap. Align coupler
tangs with termination tabs. Twist
coupler clockwise 90º locking coupler
to termination drain.
Unscrew access port and feed the sewer
hose through the opening.
Attach other end of hose to shore
sewer facility. Restrain hose to prevent
movement during use.
Open the liquid waste drain (grey
water) valve.
The solid waste drain (black water) valve
remains closed until the tank is full or until
time of departure to help prevent clogging.
Use the outside faucet or shower attachment
for washing or rinsing the sewer hose after
dumping the black tank.
NOTE:
Use care when connecting the sewer
hose adapter to the termination drain
in cold weather.
