Black tank won't take water

[Oregon_Camper]

Since the valves reduce the inside diameter, I wanted more volume. I don't know if this actually accomplishes this, but things seem no different in the rig. I run my rig at 60 psi, so maybe that makes a difference. Everything stays connected, even durring travel. Just hook in the water hose and done at setup.

FYI....Alliance recommends 40-45 PSI.

agreed and like my shower damage repairs, I am eliminating all the fittings that are not pex. Pex can more than handle 60 psi. My shower was a failure of fittings and the shower pan install. My shower pan wasn't even secured to the floor. I guess it is the risk and work I am willing to endure, while I eliminate the weak points, that should have never existed. Saying that the water is all PEX is a bit misleading in my opinion.

Believe it or not, because of the bends, you might get just a little less flow running through both feeders. Not significantly less but a little. Just a point of interest, not being critical by any means.

This is my control panel Mod, since we are sharing. Since there is a check valve on the backside of the flush connection and the Rinse connection is well above the tank level. This setup adds shut off valves to either side and I have been running it this way for 3 years now. When I think about it, running 2 separate hoses, because a check valve COULD fail, then I would be affecting the main water supply instead. In other words, same problem either way. I have disinfected 24" water mains before, so I guess it is not a fear of mine. I guess you could even throw in another check valve if you wanted.

This setup allows me to use 1 hose, 1 flow meter, and I just simply throw valves to direct flow. The hoses are $11 mixer hoses used for washer machines. I also carry two (2) Camco 25' EvoFlex2 collapsible hoses. They save sooooo much storage space! I only need 25' to date, but I have a backup plan with the second one. They are very tough and easy to deal with on a cold day.

Note: The hoses are twisted, because it removed some tension to the 4-way garden hose splitter.

That’s cool

is there a link for the 4 way valve as well?

Go to Lowes or home depot in the garden hose section, I recommend getting the brass
