Question Sanicon Why???

Sanicon is also useful for uphill scenarios. Yes, I've had a handful of those.

It is also great for long-distance pump-outs. At the sticks-and-bricks, our septic tank is about 75’ away from where the coach Is parked. We use a 75’ 3/4” garden hose to dump the black and gray tanks when we get home from a trip. So as not to overburden the septic system, we try to arrive home with fairly empty tanks and then stagger the pump-outs over a couple of sessions with a pause between them.

Thanks for all the input. Like CaptainGizmo I currently use my autovalve to dump from inside the coach through my stinky slinky. I have a flowjet macerator pump that I use at the S&B to empty & flush the tanks when we return from travels. I think I'll spend the sanicon $ on something else and look at a way to pack up my flowjet & a section of hose to handle any uphill situations. So far I've only encountered a couple of uphill dump situations. In one the flow was "uphill" but not higher that than the dump valve so gravity still worked but I had to "walk" the last of the gray out of the SS. The other case I was just there for an overnight so just waited to dump until the next campground.
