How to use a RV Macerator Pump to empty holding tanks at home! 

These definitely are a game changers. While we primarily dump at the parks before leaving, being able to do a couple flushes etc.. at home is super helpful for maintaining your tanks. People are always worried it's going to be smelly or messy, it really isn't. The trick is like Matt showed is to make sure your hose is pushed around the toilet trap and you won't smell a thing. Pro-tip is to cut off the threaded hose end to make it easier to get around the bend.

Thank you for that short, simple demonstration without going into a whole spiel about the whole history of rv macerators or showing us videos of you cute dog, etc. Lol.

If you have town sewage you may already have a 4" clean out in front yard. I called my plumber to help me find it. If I would have known it was that easy I would have bought a cheap metal detector and found it myself. In just minutes the plumber found the metal cap, and replaced with plastic 4" cap. I now dump directly there from RV. Its about 8 feet from curb so its super convenient. So much easier then pump and hose to inside toilet.

Thank you for this video! Really helpful! Also, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a camper that small of a size that had a double axle.

Excellent video. Everything I needed to know in a well organized & presented video. Thank you

Love this. Nice game changer for us. I actually place my hose in the cleanout on the side of the house.

I would take my gloves off before going in the trailer. Nice video.

Nice share of this RV pump. Have a nice week.

3:19 ... You strike me as a very wise man!!! :)

I am new to RV'ing .. I am just starting to build my van this summer (1994 Chevy Step Van) I as worried about he pump breaking down and having to replace it ... I assuked the pump was IN the tank,. But this modular set up is fantastic!!, for the price? ... I'd keep a spare pump on board! :)

Very well explained! Thank you!

Is there a more permanent attachment so I don't have to do this every time.

Great video thanks! I have a question. I have a shop sink in my garage. Can I build a “Y” fitting off of my drain and just hook up the macerator to it? In your opinion.

I don’t know if I’m missing something, but I don’t understand how this makes dumping any easier. You still have to empty your tanks into a portable tank if you’re boondocking. Is it just so people can empty their tanks at home if they don’t have a sewer clean out nearby? I think I would be leery of running a hose through my house so I could dump into my toilet. 😳

Does the potable city water connect to the flush port go to a tee that connects to the RV sewer pipe? So if you forget to turn the black handle on the green valve your sewer is directly connected to your potable water connection? No traps, no vents, no back flow valves between the potable water and the sewer just that little green valve?

What’s happening with gray hose

Why don't you use your sewer clean out in the front of your house instead dragging the hose through your house

Is this a good option if the septic tank is uphill from the RV spot we are using?

DO YOU NEED WATER HOZE OR CAN IT DUMP WITHOUT GARDEN HOZE

Looks pretty ez

Matthew, to clarify, you are making a slurry out of your poop, putting it under high pressure and pumping it into your house! What could possibly go wrong!!! No, just no!🤭 PS: Nice camper

Did this stink up your house?
