Flush King
Hello and thanks to all in advance!! Going to use this apparatus for first time in order to clean out my black tank, do I also clean out the grey tank? When flushing, do I have just the black tank...

Every one I have seen are funneled to the drain pipe, makes a big difference with how the flushers work.

I believe it makes a larger difference in how well the tank drains rather than the flusher's effectiveness.
I don't see how the results would be any different using the Sewer Solution or RV Hydroflush on a actual tank since neither added water to the tank during the rinse cycle.
In the tests of the Flush King and Tornado, I believe more would have been removed from the bottom of the tank during the rinse cycle. I don't believe it would change the result of the side residue left with the Flush King.
I'm not surprised with the results using the Tornado as spraying a tank logically should be the most effective. I was surprised however of the ineffectiveness of the Sewer Solution as it seems to have a strong following on this forum.
I have been using the Flush King for the last 11 years and do so because I have a sealed underbelly and installing something like the Tornado would just be too labor intensive for the benefit received.
I would suggest to the OP purchasing a water meter to monitor the gallons being added to the tank during rinse. I have found my Flush King adds 30 gallons between 3 and 4 minutes depending on water pressure. Also be EXTREMELY careful not to overfill the tank as you can have water running from your vent pipe, or even worse a ruptured tank (as some have reported). I have plenty of experience of doing what I’ve warned you about, and fortunately I’ve never ruptured a tank :)
