One of my camping buddy's, and his name happens to be Buddy has done just that in his Class A for the very same reason, the wife insisted. He bought a used big DP and the wife hated the RV throne and insisted on a residential model for whatever reason. I believe he took it to Dues in Dickenson to have it done.
He shuts off the water to it and drains the tank and bowl (uses a cleaning brush to force the water out of the bowl) before he hits the road.
Therefore, it can be and has been done.
How does he keep the smell from the black tank out of the RV with no water in the trap?
And I can't believe that connection from the tank to the bowl doesn't occasionally work loose. My next Q would be...Would a wife that picky really enjoy the RV life?
I'll call him today to get answers, maybe some photo's.
They have camped for years in a TT so she has no objection to RV'ing. I think her issue was sitting on something that used. I believe the deal was in order for her to agree to a 12 yr old A he shall replace the toilet, carpet and mattress, so he did. He also replace the sofa and dinette.
As far as filling the tank? He bought a late '90s Dutch Star. How large is the black tank in something like that? Let's say 40 gal's. 2 ppl, 3 times a day at 2 gal/flush, that's a week! He's like me by not staying in one spot more than three of four days.
