The R-Pod has a built-in black water tank flush fitting. With that, the standard 3" hose works well. I don't see the need to pay a premium price for the Sewer Solution, which takes over twice the time to empty the tank and still requires tank flushing to be effective in cleaning it out.

Reading about the hose issue, has anyone seen, heard or used the Sewer Solution system? I saw it on YouTube and I'm thinking about getting it to use if I'm able to use our clean out trap at home. Of course it can be used anywhere. Would love some feedback on this. Thanks.

Didn't realise we needed your permission.  Seems like you need an attitude adjustment.  Possibly low T at your age.  Might want to see your Doc about that.  We are all entitled to our opinions, even you.  Might want to get off your high horse and be more constructive rather than continuing with your need of an attitude adjustment.  Safe Travels.

The plastic plumbing in a Pod is Pex and rated to handle lots more than 80 PSI.  Go ahead and spend your money on what makes you happy.

Even the brass regulators (not flow restrictors) are so inexpensive that they are expendable.  Since they attach between the campground's hose bib and your hose, many campers unhook their hose and forget to remove the regulator.  It is very easy to forget, I know from personal experience.  I now attach the regulator to the hose very tightly, where it stays when we break camp.  This way you have to remove the regulator with the hose.

We purchased an inexpensive, plastic regulator at Walmart. Don't know the brand (it's stored in the pup). They simply restrict water flow so there is not much to them and you don't need anything expensive.

I always figure on spending at least 10% of the purchase price towards things I buy. In this case, I'm sooooo far under that to buy these things, I'm ok. I hate reacting since it usually means I'm payung to fix the damage and then buying the preventative items.
