Certain camping trailer floor plans include a Black Water tank. For these floor
plans, the toilet and the shower share the same compartment (
Fig 8.13 ). Water
from the shower/toilet flows into this sewage (or black water) holding tank. This
tank is located above floor underneath the shower. (Refer to sections
Black Tank
Drain & Black Water Holding Tank )
The weight of the holding tank contents is not calculated into the RV cargo
carrying capacity (this extra weight would reduce your available cargo capacity).
Traveling with full holding tank(s) could possibly cause you to exceed the
individual tire ratings and/or the RV GAWR or RV GVWR. Potential damage to
suspension components, such as springs, tires and axles, could result.
If your RV holding tank(s) are located behind the axles, the weight of the full
tank(s) will reduce the hitch weight. Trailer sway and other handling difficulties can
be the result of the hitch weight being too light.
Dump the black water holding tank before traveling to avoid carrying unnecessary
weight. If you are dry camping and cannot immediately empty your holding tank,
reduce your vehicle speed until you reach a dumping station.
Before using the RV or after dumping the black water holding tank, always add the
proper amount of deodorant to the black water tank to prevent malodors and help
break down holding tank contents (unless winterizing). Follow the deodorant bottle
or package instructions. Driving to a disposal site will normally loosen any
accumulated waste debris or solids from the sides of the holding tanks.
WARNING
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.
