Black Tank Flush Issues

[VagabondLove]

My flusher became clogged, too. Perhaps dirt or Teflon tape made its way into the hose and clogged those small openings. Instead of ripping it all apart just for a mediocre spray, I opted to change my black clean out method. After bleaching the toilet, I drop a hose into the bowl drain and open it full blast right before opening the black valve. That water helps to add liquid to the slurry, and breaks up the pyramid better than any little sprayer could. After the water runs clear, I close the tank and let it fill up about 2/3rds (my water meter helps measure how much water I added) then drain again. Once the water runs clear I turn off all water and let the black tank completely drain. Then, start up the water again to flush out the remaining sediment. Finally, I close the tank and let about 5 gallons remain as the start for the next batch of slurry. If we are moving to our next stop, I add about 12 gallons of water to slosh around and clean up anything that’s left, and dump the tank on arrival, then fill with 5 gallons. Add a scoop of Happy Camper, and we are good to go until next weekend’s flush.
