Toilet Overflow
What a mess. We use our travel trailer at our recreational property primarily for the fridge, restroom and microwave.
Well this past weekend we had our annual family picnic with about 50 people. Had the water system set for city water and hooked to my well pump. At the end of the day one of the kids runs out of the trailer and says the toilet is overflowing.
Long story short, evidently the city water inlet allows incoming water to run into the gray tank, when that filled then it filled the black tank and kept pumping water up thru the toilet when it was flushed.
Fortunately most of the water that dumped on the floor was fresh.
This trailer was bought used for this season so no history available.
Any suggestions on causes or fixes?
