What To Put In Holding Tanks
Black Water Tank (Waste):
Before using the toilet, treat the waste
holding tank with a pre-charge 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, mix/add the chemicals in accordance
with the manufacturer instructions. Pour
mixture through toilet into the holding tank.
Be careful not to spill the chemical on hands,
clothing, toilet bowl or carpet as it will stain.
Hot weather conditions may require adjusting
the amount of chemical used to control odor.
Repeat the chemical pre-charge to the waste
tank each time the tank is emptied.
POISON:
Most chemical mixtures for holding
tank odor control are poisonous.
Follow product manufacturer’s
directions and warnings when using
any tank additive.
Grey Water Tanks (Liquid)
The grey water tank holds sink and shower
drain water. A reduced mixture of chemicals
can help to control odor in the grey tank, but
no chemicals are required. Ensure the grey
water tank is at least 1/3 full prior to emptying
to provide a sufficient flow of liquid through
the termination valve and sewer drain hose.
NOTE:
Close the grey water valve 24 hours
before departure to allow the tank to
fill with a sufficient amount of liquid.
Use the tank monitor to gauge level.
NOTE:
Hot weather conditions may require
adjusting the amount of chemical used
to control odor. Repeat the chemical
pre-charge to the holding tank each
time the tank is cycled. Ensure there
is a sufficient amount of liquid in the
holding tanks prior to emptying the
tanks. Empty the holding tanks weekly
to reduce stagnation and prevent
overfilling.
Holding Tank Termination Valves
Drain valves dispose waste through a
common termination drain. Each holding tank
has a separate drain valve. The tank drain
valves are located on the roadside frame of the
recreational vehicle. Use the water monitor
panel to observe tank levels. When ready to
drain the tanks, drain the sewage tank first then
drain the grey water tank. Using this sequence
helps flush solids from the sewer hose. When
traveling, it is recommend that the holding
tanks be empty or less than half full.
Sewer Hose
A flexible sewer hose is attached from the
common termination drain to the shore sewer
facility. It is important the sewer hose is
restrained securely in place when emptying
the tanks. Always tighten clamps and check
restraining devices before use. Termination
adapters of various configurations and sizes
are available at most camping supply outlets.
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.
To Attach the Hose:
1. Remove
termination cap.
Align coupler
tangs with
termination tabs.
Twist coupler
clockwise 90º,
locking coupler to
termination drain.
2. Attach the other
end of the hose to the drain shore
service. Restrain hose to prevent
movement during use.
