fresh water tank fill, carbon 327

So I know I can see the faces already on this and maybe it is a stupid question. But here goes, when your filling your fresh water and walk away. so said tank continues to fill, and is full. will the excess water come out the vent on the side of the trailer? No I haven't overfilled mine yet, but I also have never really filled it to the top.

  • Testing is the only sure fire way to know. Some gravity fills have a air release vent right by the hose portion. Many will have a vent on top of the tank.
  • I guess the only way ill know for certain is to let it fill, to this date I have always stopped when it got 3/4 But next month I will need a full tank.
  • My trailer has 2 spots that will spit water out when full... an overflow tube under the frame, and a vent hole next to the fill port
  • that wont happen on mine as the hose is screwed onto it and not resting in the fill tube.
  • On mine it shoots out the same hole I'm filling it from.
