Heated tanks in 8528 IKWS 2013 5er

[arthmary]

We bought our 5er from estate sale and don't have much info. It is suppose to have heated tanks, would that mean all tanks are heated? Then we have 4 tanks, black, fresh, grey and galley - aren't gray water and galley water the same thing? Sorry if questions are silly, we are new at this rv thing. Thanks

There are no silly questions. Typically, if it has heated tanks, they all have heat pads that are thermostatically controlled when turned on, that is the case with my Rockwood (sister version of the Flagstaff). And the gray is bathroom sink and shower water and galley is just that, kitchen sink water. Love having the two separate tanks. Makes dry camping a bit easier since then you don't have to worry as much about washing dishes versus washing youself and your tank levels
