Sewer Donut
If a CG says a sewer donut is required, what do theY mean? Amazon has a "sewer seal" which was what I thought they meant but went to RV Supply store today & they didn't have one. They only had a sewer...

The uses for the donut were very well covered.
An elbow can be used without the donut - and frequently it is.
Some folks will put a weight of some kind on top of the elbow to make sure it stays where it belongs.
Some *campgrounds* are requiring a *threaded* elbow - although most do not. - (Never saw an employee checking sewer connections, LOL!
Even if you only boondock, you will usually need/want an elbow at the dump station - not really necessary.....but "handy".
BTW - a "Y" connection is to connect *two* 3" sewer lines into *one*.
Some folks with two (remote from each other) separate tanks (usually with rear kitchens, or 2 bathrooms) will want to do that - but even then, a 3" 'Y' is not necessary.
Happy dumping..;)
