I would like to combine my grey water and black water outlets on my 179 with risers. I have seen a post here a while back that gave specific instructions as to how to do it and what parts to order. Can someone please repost that. I think I have most of the parts but would like the instructions so I don't make a major mistake cutting something wrong. Thanks. ------------- 179 Chevy Tahoe Jan & Bob IMG_0655.JPGIMG_0655.JPG

One easy way to do this is to use a 5 foot hose on each outlet and then connect them to a Y and then run that single to the dump. All the parts are readily available at any RV outlet.
I did this and then found that it was just easier to dump each one when I needed to. |

Remember that you can leave the gray water valve open when you have a sewer hookup, but you need to leave the black valve closed until the tank is at least 2/3 full (before dumping close the gray valve to collect a shower or two worth of water to help flush the line). So leaving them separate isn't as big a problem as you might think, as Capt discovered. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual
