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 motorhome 

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.

 

z

Remove termination cap. Align coupler 

 

z

tangs with termination tabs. Twist 

coupler clockwise 90º locking coupler 

to termination drain.

Unscrew access port and feed the sewer 

 

z

hose through the opening.

Attach other end of hose to shore 

 

z

sewer facility. Restrain hose to prevent 

movement during use. 

Open the liquid waste drain (grey 

 

z

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.
