This weekend will be my maiden voyage in my 19RBS and I'd really like to do things right! LOL!
Thanks. |
Usually level enough at dump station.
Most important reminder is NOT To have both black and grey water valves open at the same time.
When you open the black water tank valve, make sure the grey water valve is CLOSED. When you are done emptying the black water- CLOSE the black water tank valve. Then open the grey water tank valve (with black water tank valve CLOSED) and empty grey water tank. You don't want both valves open at same time to prevent black water from going into grey water tank and contaminating it. After you do it a couple of times, will not be intimidating at all. (other good suggestions posted about how to further clean/flush your black water tank like dumping bucket of water in toilet and draining black water tank second time before draining grey water with understanding that if long line at dump station, maybe don't be as thorough).
Enjoy! (the trip more than time at the dump station
