- BradWExplorer IIJust a follow up:
I spoke with a very helpful Lance rep today and he did confirm that the shower drains into the gray tank on a 1062 Lance.
Thanks all for your responses.
BradW - BradWExplorer IIOn our Lance 500, I know the kitchen sink drain into the gray tank. I'm not sure about the bath sink and shower.

I'm surprised to learn that the showers on some models actually dump into the black tank as the sewage. The eliminates being able flush your hose clean with the soapy shower water after dumping the black tanks. I prefer what I have with 2 separate tanks.
"Usually" this is with older campers with side and rear mounted holding tanks secured with straps..There is still two holding tanks on most for washing out the sewer hose, but just smaller than the ones with a basement.
My grey tank is secured to the side of the camper strapped in place and the rear larger black tank, is at the rear of the camper, also secured by straps. - I'm surprised to learn that the showers on some models actually dump into the black tank as the sewage.

Guess I will contact lance and ask them.
Lance owners forum will get you an answer. - Put shower drain in to plug off water from draining out of shower. Put about 2" or 3" of water in your shower tray. Turn off city water faucet and in coach water pump.
Flush toilet and hold foot peddle down.
Turn on flash light and look down toilet hole. Have someone open shower drain which will allow the stationary water in shower tray to flow into coach piping.
Watch down toilet hole to see and hear if the water that is draining from shower tray goes into black tank.
Question answered. Let us know what you find.
Lakeside - BradWExplorer IIGuess I will contact lance and ask them.
- northshoreExplorerI cannot tell you if your 1062 drains into the black tank but I can say (for what its worth ) that my 1997 Lance shower drains into the black tank. I disconnected the shower from the black tank and connected a hose to the shower and drain that into a bucket... works for me.
