(I saw this video and and was disappointed that he didn't explain what I needed. I then read the comments and approximately 90% of the comments were about how good the guy demonstrated the black tank flush. However Due to the fact that the majority disagreed with my opinion, I watched the video a second time. The man was on point, and did show what I needed. And now I"m stuck writing this comment, because I'm froze For 71 minutes I have been drafting this comment but I don't think that I will ever get done. Unfortunately the sun will be coming up in a few hours, yet I still sit...)

Thank you RV Batman Jr. for all your videos. I am a new camper owner of a used 2016 Keystone 28ft Springdale Summerland series. I have learned a lot from your videos before we went on our first camping trip. I took my sisters' advice about taking at least 3 trips no farther than 25 minutes/miles from home because you always either forget something or need to run back home in case something goes wrong and your not to far out from your home if you need to go back.

On my black tank rinsing process, I have been leaving the valve closed and rinsing. I can hear the spray jets clearly and I monitor my tank level. When it gets about 2/3 full, I can no longer hear the spray valves. I open the valve back up and get a good clean water rush. Also, we leave the black closed and the gray open when camping. The gray fills up frequently with a family of 4 showering. The tank is only 35 gallons and no one besides me knows how to take a Navy shower.

We have a destination camper that sits on our land all summer. No city water, but we have a 275 gallon fresh water tank on our pickup that we bring close enough to camper to fill fresh water tank in camper. Not excited about connecting another hose to the small water pump to use in black vault flush. Do I need to be concerned with that? Any other ideas? First year with a camper. Thx
@thequales
@thequales 3 года назад
Thank you! Very informative. Three questions: 1) We use our black tank only for urine (no TP either) because we have a composting toilet. We made the mistake of keeping the black tank valve open (after emptying it and flushing it) when we released the Grey tank valve to empty that. Is this bad? 2) how do we flush the Grey tank? 3) we’ve not used the fresh water tank yet - how do we clean it/sanitize it before our first use? So far, we’ve only been connecting to city water at campsites. It’s a 2018 Coachmen Leprechaun 32BH and we just bought it. Thank you!
@therealjr9175
@therealjr9175 3 года назад
No if liquid is the only thing going in the tank it is not an issue the way it is with solids Grey tanks do not have flushes and in my opinion do not need them seeing how they do not have any solid or tissue going in the tank I do not sanitize the fresh tank because I do not drink from it. However the fresh tank cleaners and products have instruction and they change from brand to brand. I do not know who recommend sense I do not use it. Wont recommend anything I do use and know if the product works good or not

My black tank flush out might be stuck… I recently bought a new (new to us) trailer and when I went to use the flush it didn’t work at all. The hose had lots of pressure but there was no water coming from the tank. Do you think it’s plugged somehow? Is there a valve that needs to be opened?
@wheretheskygrows
@wheretheskygrows 2 года назад
So when you say the tank needs to be 2/3 full before you dump, and if that means using the shower head to get there, you mean into the toilet? Isn't using the flush port on the outside doing the same thing? In either case, the black tank valve should be open? I guess I'm confused how it gets to 2/3 full if the valve is open? (We are weekenders, not full timers). Can you clarify?
@KeystoneRVCenter
@KeystoneRVCenter Год назад
You want the tank to be 2/3 filled so you get a good flush of water and keep the tank from building solids up on the bottom. We are going to be updating this video shortly so we can go into more details soon -JR

I see that Jayco is adding the Thetford Santi-Con system. No one that I have seen has really shown that model. Seen some on other RV's. They are installed being that you have to use and if it didn't work you would have to take off the hose and replace the old sewer hose. Is this how Jayco's are set up. Maybe a video showing how Jayco's are installed and what to do if you have to bypass.

It will flow into the tank. If the black tank flush is not flowing into the tank it could be a check valve that is bad causing it not to flow

Thanks JR. I have a black tank flush system question. I have a 2021 Keystone Cougar half-ton model 24RDS 5th wheel. Do I need to use a water pressure regulator on the hose for the black tank flush? Could not get a straight answer from dealer. I understand my black tank has been emptied and value open. I know you use a water pressure regulator on the drinking hose for city water connection, do not know if I have to use another water pressure regulator on my different water hose, I use for black tank flush. My connections on my 5th wheel are the same as your video except they are in the command center in my front storage bay. Thank again.

When flushing couldn't you close black tank valve until tank get 3/4 full then flush again rather then leaving black tank open the whole time?
@KeystoneRVCenter
@KeystoneRVCenter 5 лет назад
The manufacturer recommends leaving the black valve open during the process to allow the system to work properly as well as to prevent any potential risk of overflowing the tank into your RV, always better safe than sorry.
@therealjr1715
@therealjr1715 5 лет назад
If you use enough water when you flush the toilet you should not have to back fill the tank. The old idea of back filling comes form a combo of not using enough water when flushing and purge flushing a tank (before black tank flush was on a lot of trailers)

JR, I have seen videos recommending using RIDEX in the black tank periodically. Is this something you would recommend? Or should I just stick with your advice of using toilet chemicals in your other video? Thank you sir. (FYI, I have a Keystone Outdoorsman 175LHS).
@therealjr1715
@therealjr1715 5 лет назад
Some good logic behind that but more miss information. Let me explain Both ridex and some rv chemicals us enzymes to work the difference is RV chemicals are designed to work faster. Home Ridex is designed to work over years we need ours to work in days. I am sure that a 175LHS would have a smaller black tank. If it was me I would only use RV chemicals. That small of a tank I would want them to work as fast as possible. I see a lot of people using home made fixes to try and fix problems from not using the system correctly in the first place.

There should be one for each one....other products I have seen with dual baths have one for each.

If there is only one dump you will have to contact Keystone Manufacturing to see how they ran the flushing system. Call the customer service number for them it is 1-866-425-4369

I have a Cougar Keystone 31sqb. If I look down the toilet hole, should I see water about a foot or two down? I've emptied the tank and flushed it until nothing comes out and I still seem to see water. Just wondering if that means I have a clog somewhere or if that's normal.

Why not run water through the flush hose again after you empty the grey water?
@KeystoneRVCenter
@KeystoneRVCenter 3 года назад
Because it does not go into the grey tank. Only the black has the flush connected to it and after you run soap water (Grey Tank) into the stink slinky I do not want black water going back in -JR

Thank you for the video, JR! We just bought a used 2012 Starcraft Autumn Ridge 278BHS tow-behind trailer, and plan to live in it full-time. When empty, the black tank reads 3/4 full. I attempted to use the black tank flush (with the black tank open), and clean water started running down the back of the trailer, as well as spraying out of what appeared to be some not-so-tight connections under the sink. Should I have disconnected my fresh water line from the city first? Also, since the water never made it to my black tank, does this indicate a non-functioning pump for the black flush? Thanks again! Your videos are extremely helpful!

I would do a probe clean first. The fresh water line has no relationship with the black tank flush line however it is possible to have a loose fitting or bad check valve causing the issue

What if hook the water hose up open the black tank valve and let it run for a couple minutes and nothing is coming thru the sewage hose?
@therealjr9175
@therealjr9175 4 года назад
My bet would be a bad check valve. Go inside the trailer and look where the black tank flush line comes in. Follow it and you should see a black check valve. When they fail they are designed to fail in the closed position. This valve keeps the water from flowing backwards into the garden hose.
