One of the least pleasurable tasks around the RV is dumping the black water tank. We read a lot about doing it and found some really good tips & tricks on the web.
The RV came with a very short 5' hose that was likely original to the camper. It meant we had to get really close to the dump pipe and with not much practice it took a few attempts before we were within range.
The first stop at an RV store, Happy Trails RV. (not associated with our camp ground which is also named Happy Trails), We picked up a 10' hose. I had previously bought this device from eBay. It's called a Valterra F02-4350 Reverse RV Flush Valve.
What this device does is isolates your sewer hose and allows you to back flush your holding tank then after dumping the grey water rinse the hose with fresh water. No Stinkies! Although a bit pricey you might be able to find it online cheaper. I paid $70 Cdn. I know, I know, way more than you wanted to know about poop in an RV! 😀😀😀
