Bill, I have no water issues except when I hook up the flush hose. Going to find someone to turn on the water while I look at the setup. Everything except the hose going under the floor into the tank is visible, under the bathroom sink. I thought maybe the sprayer was blocked in the tank and causing the fresh water to spray out since it has nowhere to go. Going to use a manual sprayer to clean the tank and see if that helps before I try the hookup again.
Doug, I like the idea of a sturdy brass one. Are they all pretty much the same or do I need to worry about getting the right one? Seems like a pretty basic thing but I hate to assume anything.
1. If the nozzle is clogged NOTHING will happen---no water will flow
2. The Brass/metal ones are all the same for this application.
3. From another post---IF you have removed a sewage filled nozzle, and clean it out, do NOT drill out the holes. WHY would you do that??????? Just makes it easier for sewage to flow in and also STOPS the forceful spray that the holes are designed to shoot out to clean the tank. Doug
PS. I do not believe this system has a plumbing code. It is a COMMON SENSE code to install it and maintain it as designed.
