I have never heard of a storage tank in the slide.
This would place a significant load on the slide mech when extended...even a 30 gal tank could approach 300# or more!
A tank in the slide would also require "soft" plumbing...not rigid PVC.
This does not seem like a good idea at all...
Are you sure about this?
Thx, Bill
It's the black tank that's in the slide, with the toilet also mounted in the slide, all hard piped. The dump valve and outlet are also in the slide. If there is a black tank flush it would also be completely contained in the slide.
But yes I would agree with your comments about the extra weight in the slide.
So the black tank has its own dedicated dump valve?
That is different...I never heard of a setup like that before. I guess if you put the head and therefore the tank in the slide that makes sense.
