The waste water system in your motor home is made up
of
sinks, tub, shower, toilet, plumbing drain and vent lines, a
grey water holding tank, and a black water holding tank.
Generally, water from the sinks and shower drains into the
grey water tank, the
toilet drains into the black water tank.
The holding tanks make the system completely self-contained
and allow you to dispose
of
waste water at your convenience.
A flexible sewer hose is required to connect the holding tank
outlet to the inlet
of
an
approved waste water dump station or
sewer system.
The drain plumbing is similar to that used in your home. The
system is trapped and vented to prevent waste gases from
backing up into the motor home. The drain plumbing is made
of
ABS plastic, and is durable and resistant to most chemicals.
Your motor home is equipped with a marine-type toilet.
Please follow the operating instructions found in your
Owner's Information Package.
The holding tanks terminate in a valve aITangement that
permits draining each tank separately or together.
The valves are called knife valves. A blade closes the opening
in
the sewer drain pipes. The blade is connected to aT-handle
assembly mounted in the utility compartment.
Pull the
T-handle to release the contents
of
the tank(s).
During self-containment use, the sewer line is securely capped
to prevent leakage
of
waste material onto the ground
or
pave-
ment. Do
not
pull
the holding tank knife valve open when
the protective cap
is
installed on the pipe. Always drain the
tank into an acceptable sewer inlet
or
dump station.
