When I flush the black tank (we have a tornado flusher installed) I will usually close the valve while the water is running so the black tank will fill. This allows the swirling action of the water to help pull out solids when I re-open the valve. Its a little risky, you have to avoid getting distracted while the tank valve is closed etc.
However, I have to keep asking my wife to check the tank display to insure I don't overfill the tank. What I am planning to try is to set up a second tank display on the outside near the flush valves in a small waterproof enclosure so I can monitor the tank levels myself when flushing.
Has anyone else ever tried this?
yes. we did that a year or so ago. the only downside is that if we check the tanks on the inside panel we have to wait until that panel resets before we can check levels on the exterior panel. otherwise the exterior panel simply duplicates what is showing on the interior panel.
