Maiden Voyage

We had our maiden voyage in our new Torque toy hauler, we couldn't have asked for a better time. I did have a few questions that some of your might know the answer to.
1. Our Torque has 2 bathrooms, full bath up front and 1/2 bath in garage. Out side there are 2 drain stations, both have grey and black pull handles. Drained both black tanks fine, drained the front grey fine, but when I attached the rear drain and drained the grey, it poured out of the front drain station. Is this normal, is this the way it is suppose to be?
2. Storage. We will be storing the TH for about 30 days before we head out again (work pulled me away), what is the best way to store the TH? keep a little water in the black tanks, and grey tanks, and total drain the fresh water?
Thanks for any help you have on this.

  • I would guess there is a plumbing FUBAR. The second grey tank appears to be plumbed to the first grey tank drain gate valve. Not likely to be a problem. The second tank drain could be rerouted to the second drain gate valve.
  • I always store my trailer with full fresh water tank and a few gallons in the black with treatment. Grey tank is left empty.
  • I like to keep some water in the black tank so any stuff that's sitting on the bottom doesn't set up solid.
  • No real need to keep any water in any of the tanks.
    If temps are going to be below freezing, then maybe pour some RV antifreeze in all the sink and shower drains, and some in the toilet.
