Sani Flush Issues

[wnytaxman]

We just returned from a 15 day trip in the Maritime Provinces and when I hooked up a hose to the Sani Flush I found that the Sani Flush seemed to be plugged as no water was going into the tank. Has anyone else encountered something like this?

Ed,
Haven't encountered that problem but one thought is that the back-flow (aniti-siphon) valve may be stuck or broken. It should be right behind the white panel. You would need to remove the panel to get at it but once that is done, it should be a fairly simple job to change it.
Other than this problem, I hope you had a great trip.

Thanks Tom, I'll check it out to see if that does the trick. Do I need to take off the entire panel or just the two screws that hold the San-T-Flush inlet in place?

Ed,
Not sure how it is plumbed. Hopefully there will be enough 'slack'so that when you remove the screws you will be able to pull it out far enough to work on it. If it is plumbed with rigid piping, you would probably need to take the whold panel off so that you can work on it.
Let us know what happens.
Good luck.
Tom
