RV Black Tank Clog
Safe ways to approach black tank clogs and when it's time to call a tank cleaning specialist.
Backflush
Use a clear elbow with a backflush valve (like a Flush King) to push water back up the pipe and break the clog.
Prevention
Use plenty of water with every flush. Water is the vehicle that moves waste. Never leave black valves open.
Can't fix it yourself?
