black tank anti siphon flush valve
Just got my black tank flush anti-siphon valve installed (mostly) today. What a bear!!! Whoever thought to put it inside the pocket door area should be whupped! I started to take the mirror off the wall opposite the shower stall and discovered that it is glued on the wall. The screw brackets must be there for decoration..... There is no access panel to get to the valve. I took the pocket door out of the slide and that was the easy part. I did get my arm inside the area and took the screw out of the hose retaining strap and from that I was able to pull the assembly out of the door slot far enough to get to the valve which I replaced. I still have to get the bracket screwed back onto the wall stud it is attached to. I think this is going to be a real problem due to the lack of access and leverage. I am already contemplating relocating it to somewhere more accessable and still mount above the black tank. I think it is really easiest to remove the valve and its attendant plumbing and just put a straight thru hose with an external anti siphon.....
Anyone else with a 3295 experience this joy yet and willing to share the 'fix'?

I'm sorry that I cannot help you with your problem but maybe you can help me with mine. Whew! That was a long one. Anyway, where did you buy the anti-siphon valve? I can't find a replacement for mine.

Thanks for the info, Illapah. My 2003 2955RL has the anti-siphon valve located underneath the lavatory sink.Relatively easy to work with.
Thanks again
Bill

Mine to under the sink and when it broke I pulled it out and put in a L connector and it works great.
