So far, our trips in the RV have been to places where there's no water and sewer connection at the campsite. Next weekend, we'll be spending three days in a place with those services at each campsite.
I've read through the owner's manual, and it seems pretty straightforward:
Water: Hook the hose up as if filing the tank, but leave the switch in what Itasca calls the "normal" position. Water will then bypass the tank, and it will be as if we're back at home, using city water. The fresh water tank's presently nearly empty, but that'll be OK, since the water's not coming from the tank.
Sewer: Hook up the dump line, but leave the black and gray water tank valves shut until they're full or we're leaving, then follow the usual sequence (black water tank first, then gray water, then rinse out the hose). Add the orange stuff that breaks down the solids and (supposedly) removes stink, just as normal.
Are there other things I should know?
Other than not having to drive to the dump station on the way out, is there any major benefit, for a short stay like ours, to connecting the sewer line at the campsite?
