Overall I love my Tango TT. There is one nagging problem that drives me crazy though and that's filling the fresh water tank. What seems to be happening is that the vent line plugs with water. As soon as that happens water comes out the fill. I can unscrew the fill fitting which also has the vent, loosen the hose clamp on the vent line and blow into it to clear it. Water can then be added. Needless to say this is a giant Pain!Short of half dismantling the TT to get at the tank has anyone got any suggestions?Thanks. Joe

I bought a hose attachement which is a skinnier hose that fits down into the fill neck about 10" or so. Would that help? Maybe filling it more slowly? Do you have the instructions? There may be a valve you have to open or some such. You could also just try opening the kitchen faucet (with the pump off) to provide additional venting. Good luck!

I'll give that a try, thanks.

I use a hose attachment that I used on the pop up we previously had, works great. Camco...

I made a hose attachment of clear tubing that fits all the way down into the tank and just fill away. No backwash at all.

Long smaller hose down the fill spout worked for me.
