Questions and doubts about Flojet
We have a sewer cleanout next to our house, about 40 feet from the trailer's black water valve. The cleanout is essentially level with the trailer -- maybe a little downhill from the trailer, but not...

The flojet is very easy to use. Hook it on, screw on the hose end, drop the other hose end in the clean out pipe, attach the power, open the drain valve and push a button. A couple minutes and it's emptied.
In contrast when I used the stinky slinky, gravity required having to lift the slinky and "walk" the contents the 21 or so feet because it would stop flowing halfway. Each of those connections was a potential leak. The distance needed could not be met exactly with the available slinky lengths so there was always several feet of excess that sank with the contents.
With the flojet, it doesn't matter if I have extra length of hose, the pump pushes it through easily. I keep the hose on a reel and pull out just what I need. Easy to setup and use and store.
