Nice write up.........lots of scenarios covered
BUT do you really take an hour to dump and flush :B
I turn on black tank flush before I open dump valve.....dump/flush (clear adapter), dump grey.....add a few gallons back into black via flush connection...done 10-15 mins total MAX. and that's 120 gallons plus flush gallons.
Yup- I do each tank individually. Black 1 first- dump, flush (x3 usually at 5, 4, and 3 minute fill times w/ the valve closed). Then the gray 1 and gray 2 get emptied separately. Black 2 happens w/ the same flushes and finally gray 3 get emptied.
For the flush- I typically run it as the black tank slows down for a minute or so, but find that I get more "stuff" out if I close the valve and let it run for a few minutes - hence my staggered 5, 4, 3 fills.
