Flush King - Thoughts

Who uses this?

What are your thoughts?

How well does it fill the black tank?

Any risk of damage having water forced back up?

Flush King - Valterra FK-01 - Sewer Flushing - Camping World

Thanks for your comments.

I use this arrangement. I also have a clear elbow I put on when dumping to make sure it runs clear. There is no issue when back flushing using the hose attachment since the toilet is sealed with the flush valve and there is a stack venting the tanks.

Herk, thank you for replying and sharing your thoughts. I'm thinking of purchasing one to use on my rig since it doesn't have a black flush.

Happy holidays!!

For sure. No problem. Again, please accept my apology. Love the iPhone except for the auto-correct.

I use one regularly.You will be surprised at how much comes out on 2nd or even third back flush dump. I did back fill to much one time only to find out the toilet flang seal was dried out, had a bit of water leak out onto bath floor. Since have replaced seal. One word of caution, DO NOT use your fresh water hose to flush with, use seperate hose only for flushing
