We've been dumping our RV tanks into our home septic system for around 30 years. However, the dump station in our back yard where we dump the RV tanks has 4 inch plumbing all the way to the septic tank.
We've pumped our septic system once in 37 years - and that was just because the country required it for a remodeling permit. We put everything down our sink drains in the home - just as if we were on a city sewer system. We have a garbage disposal in the kitchen sink and grind up all kinds of stuff - even artichoke leaves ... and down the drain into the septic tank everything goes. We don't baby our septic system.
Once a month for 37 years I have added Septonic additive to our home's septic tank.
