Sometimes Better To Keep Your Trap Shut

[AbdRahim]

I've been looking and have not found what I am looking for. Is there a thread on how to dump your tanks? New to RV'ing and have never done this before.

Search youtube - dumping RV tanks

Thanks! I wasn't sure if we needed to flush the tanks after.

I usually flush the tanks (fill about 1/3 and empty at the end of a trip, It helps clean out the hose. I usually add Dawn Dish soap to both tanks with 1/3 full of water and let it slosh around on the way home for extra cleaning. And I don't even do #2 in there unless it is an emergency.

AND NEVER, EVER, EVER walk away from your bay while you are flushing a tank. You will forget and your tank will overflow into the RV and you will not be a happy camper.

Ask me how I found out.

Uh. Sorry @J&JD?

No, no, I never walk away. I was just thinking how upset I would be if I did.

It was not a nice time. Luckily my wife screamed at me before a real mess was made
