Just a suggestion.......
After hooking up sewer hose----dump a little grey water to check for leaks.
Easier to deal with grey water leak then black water.
Black tank......
Wait until it is 3/4 or FULL before dumping....if not ADD more water
Liquids are heavy and will help push/carry solids down/out of tank.
***A fast flowing river will move boulders------a slower moving creek can barely make a pebble move****
Dumping grey tank last is good routine to help flush/rinse drain line/sewer hose with soapy water. Just don't forget that grey can be nasty also what with food debris/oils/body scum etc.
Good job on adding water back into black tank.....keep the bottom wet and nothing will dry out and stick.
Remember.they are holding tanks and use of chemicals is personal thang.
I don't find them necessary. But again that is a personal thang.
I don't use gloves either :B
Careful with that bleach.
Only takes 1/4 cup per 15 gallons of water to sanitize and those vinyl hoses/plastic connections/o-rings will deteriorate from repeated bleach use.
