We traded our beloved 340 RL that we have had for 4 years. Looking for any tips and tricks you guys have for the Valor. I’m not sure how to get
To the backside of the panel for adding a Victron? Are the tanks really that big? We had two 45 gray and one 45 black. This has 106/106 G/B😱. I noticed two black tank spray rinse ports? Why if it’s one tank?? I have a little video attached. Also ceramic coatings? Recommendations? I don’t trust the dealer to hand them $4k to hose it down……… TIA

Rider,
I may be wrong, but I believe you have 2 black tanks and 2 gray tanks. The blacks are split as you have a half bath in the back? Do you have two waste water discharge ports?
Congratulations on your new rig. Lots of new possibilities.
Enjoy,

Appears to be one but maybe I missed it

First, congratulations! On the ceramic coating, I've done it once on my own but would do it differently (I'm going to reapply it). When I redo it at the end of this season, I am going to pay someone else to prep it for me then a few buddies of mine and I will apply the coating. THe application is easy. Wipe it on, let it flash (if you are using the good stuff), level and buff (by hand), switch towels often. The prep is not like lifting bags of concrete or anything, but it is the hardest part of the whole job. If you do pay someone to do it all for you, make sure you ask about the hardness rating of the product (harder is better) and what maintenance is involved.

Congrats!

Our 44V14 has two grays and two blacks. The half bath and garage laundry all goes into the rear black tank.

Interestingly enough on ours, the front bathroom lav also goes into the front black tank but the shower has it's own gray. I'm pretty sure it was supposed to combine with the gray from shower but it's not big enough of a deal to make me switch it. Found out from the wife washing her face at the sink when the black was full and it pressurized the black tank that started hissing through the flush ball valve, so she pushed the pedal and it exploded toilet water all over the bathroom. Luckily it was just bowl water with no "contents" but still pretty gross.
