I did not know you should flush the black water tank after dumping it? I have just dumped and cleaned out the hose. What is the purpose of flushing the black water tank?

Beats me! Putting a gallon of water in your black tank after emptying it will keep it nice and clean. No need to flush it. I don't even clean the hose as flushing the gray tank does this.
