2024 Shasta 16RE

[TLD 64]

The black water tank is installed with the shallow end under the bowl pipe.
The clearance of the bowl pipe is 1/2 inch from the bottom of the black water tank.

 

[Mr. Dan]

Is this from the Shasta division or the Cherokee division?

Mentioning which specific Shasta model you have might help as well.

Are there any Shasta 16 RE 2024 owners on here?

Not sure that the toilet dump pipe being over the shallow end of the tank is an issue but the clearance only being 1/2" probably is.

Not that I've seen yet. You could do a search in the Shasta sub-forum, to find other 16RE owners.

Just for your information, Shasta doesn't sell many trailers since they have a very limited lineup. So there are way less Shasta owners out there, than FR's other trailer divisions.

This would be a warrantee issue, but if it was me, I would probably pull the waste pipe out and cut off the extra and re install it. But I worked for years as a plumber. Good Luck DR

Thanks, but that would void any warranty going forward.
I don't know if the deep end would empty completely.

How could shortening the input pipe from the toilet into the black tank have any effect on the deep end emptying?

The deep end is opposite the dump valve, the black water would have to flow up to the shallow end and out.

Your original post says the INPUT pipe from the toilet is into the shallow end. Now you’re saying the OUTPUT/dump pipe is in the shallow end.

The waste would have run up into shallow end form the deep end in order to dump.

 

[Mr. Dan]

The waste would have run up into shallow end form the deep end in order to dump.

Please read what I wrote in post #16.

To clarify the tank is installed backwards
The deep end of the tank is on the opposite side of the dump valve.
All campers have the deep side on the dump valve side
