    This helped me alot. My Blackwater valve was stuck open.It was clogged and full and I didn't know how I was going to fix it without spilling some nastiness everywhere while taking the valve apart. I used to work in the aquarium.industry sonthis video made a lot of sense. Cleared it right up... so well that I didnt even have to take the blackwayer valve out. Thank you!!!

    Guys! I could hug you right now! I am 62 years old and facing hip replacement surgery next month and waiting for my disability checks to start coming and my black tank got stuck. It is very painful for me to kneel down and deal with this, but, I had to. I was so upset to think I might have to spend money ( I don't have yet ) to get someone to get it unclogged. I would have spent time waiting for some kind of drain cleaner, you get the picture. I did not have any help, so I used my broom (bristles up) to hold up the hose . I was able to fill it up enough to close the grey tank, then jerk it around like you showed, then threw it to the ground. I soon heard the beautiful sound of liquids coming down and to verify it worked I saw other 'stuff' coming out and I knew it worked! I actually teared up. Thank you so much, sorry for the long post, but, it's people like you that should get a Nobel Peace Prize :) No tools, no money, just worked. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

    Great video! Are you flushing your tanks at the same time or just emptying the grey tank, as shown?
    Wanted to asked before I went out with my wife to try this

    • @BrazenBrits
      @BrazenBrits  3 года назад +1

      Hi Aiden, the black tank empties better the more water you have in there, but if it’s blocked, it is worrying to add more water to the problem. But ultimately, yes, we would typically flush the tanks as much as possible when doing this. We did do a follow up to this where we explain our typical tank emptying routine: ruclips.net/video/sImkwm-u3BM/видео.html

    Whenever I get a blocked black tank I just shut all the valves hook it up to the tow vehicle and drive around on some pretty rough roads. I do it for around 30 min or so then when I go to the dump station wala it usually empties right away.

  • @brucesannino6181
    @brucesannino6181 3 года назад +2

    Let me skip several chapters and just say that our black tank was full of paper that was about the texture of wet paper-mache. I could not back flush it nor could I get a hose up into the tank from the discharge outlet. I have a 20' plumber's snake, couldn't get that up to the tank either. I turned the water off at the source and ran the snake down from the toilet. The snake is stiff enough to feel whatever it bumps against and to more or less guide the working end towards the three inch discharge pipe. I kept working it until, by feel, I found the tank end of the pipe. I'd bent a hook in the working end of the tape and with a little more working it in and out it broke through the plug and WHOOSH! Everything rushed out. The girlfriend's nineteen year old son is useing the motor home to live in for the summer. I had shown him how to manage the tanks and warned him of three things. First that he WAS going to get the tank plugged up, second that I was going to unplug it once and only in his presence and last, when classes resume in the fall his lease on OUR motor home is up.
    Best to all!

    You are a miracle worker! Thank you for posting this trick. Only one suggestion: make sure your connection to your rig is very tight. When I shook the hose filled with water I actually accidentally twisted the pipe. And as the water came after the plug un plugged the hose dropped to the ground. You can imagine what happened next 😮... Immediately closed the black tank. Fortunately the water that came out first was the fresh water we had just put in the Grey tank. Alls well that ends well, and this problem ended well.

    Hi there. I’m only 21 and my father was out of town when I noticed this clog. The toilet tank water was rising so I got scared and tried everything! Came across your vid and it saved my life bro 😭 I can’t thank y’all enough. (Had to do it about 3-4 times tho)

    Our black tank had been clogged/slow draining for weeks. After spending money on chemicals & gadgets, shoving a hose down the roof vent, shooting water up the drain pipe, this FREE technique solved the problem! Liked and subscribed. Thank you so much!

  • @rickmars8581
    @rickmars8581 3 года назад +15

    Great idea. I have actually seen this method used successfully.
    On another note, as you said yourself, it's usually the toilet paper that will cause a clog like this, especially if you leave your black tank dump valve open all the time while at a campground - which you should not do. In that case all your liquid continually drains and your hard waste and paper stays behind forming that ugly outhouse pyramid. Only open your black tank dump valve when you are ready to empty it - around 2/3rds full. You need the liquid to help the solids flow out.
    Another note ... in our many years of RVing we have never put any toilet paper down our toilet. We keep a small pail beside the toilet with a plastic bag in it. Any paper used goes into the bag instead of the toilet and gets discarded - immediately if you just went #2 - into the trash bin. You can even use a Diaper Genie. From the many campers I've talked to I find that more and more people are also doing this.
    Toilet paper is also notorious for plugging up the tank level sensors ... which we don't have to worry about. Also, if you use the recommended, hideously thin RV toilet paper you're no doubt familiar with the finger up bum thing. Well, with our pail method you can still use your favorite home brand of toilet paper and enjoy the "go".

    • @BrazenBrits
      @BrazenBrits  3 года назад +1

      Hi Rick! All good points there for sure. We have seen an increase of the number of people who do not discard toilet paper into the toilet. Personally, we just ensure that we have plenty of water in there before during and after use and we haven't had a problem. We might reconsider this when boondocking though in order to conserve water usage and blacktank capacity. Great info though from all your years experience. Thank you!
      We also filmed a follow up to this for how to prevent black tank clogs, which mentions some of these things: ruclips.net/video/sImkwm-u3BM/видео.html
