Coming Home
When you come home, there are a few maintenance tasks you should do to get your Roadtrek ready to go for next time. Refer to other sections in
this manual for the procedures listed here.
•
On your way home, dump the gray tank and toilet cassette at a convenient facility. See the HOWTO: Waste Water Dumping section for a
concise description of the procedure to do this. Some RV parks and gas stations will let you dump for a fee, some city wastewater plants will
let you dump for free but there is no real pattern, so local knowledge is vital in locating dump stations. The website
http://www.sanidumps.com
is a good resource. The maps for each state and province are

•
At home, flush the water tank and fill it with fresh chlorinated water if you will be using it in the next few days. Otherwise, drain the tank. Don't
let water you are planning to use sit in your tank for more than a week or so, and don't let any water sit in your tank for more than two weeks,
whether you plan on using it or not. Over time, the chlorine goes away and the microbes come out to play.
•
To flush the tank, fill it using the fill port in the driver's side rear panel and open the fresh water tank drain under the tank at the rear of the
Roadtrek.
•
Plug in overnight to fully charge batteries.
•
Turn off and clean out the refrigerator and prop the door open to let it air out.
•
Turn off two important switches on your monitor panel to keep from draining your batteries:
o
The battery disconnect switch.
o
The inverter switch.
•
If you turn everything off and you have solar panels, the panels will keep your coach batteries topped up while your Roadtrek is parked. If
you don't have solar panels, it would be prudent to check your coach battery state of charge every month or so and charge them if
necessary. If you don't turn everything off, even with solar panels, you will probably come back to dead batteries.
