Above my black tank flush valve is a sticker that says do not use the black tank flush unless the black tank drain is open. Is the only reason for this to keep the tank from overflowing into the rv?
I assumed so and flushed for a few minutes with the valve closed to get some water built up in the tank to help flush it out better with the rush of water and it seemed to work fine, but thought I would ask and make sure it isn’t going to hurt anything.
Also, I was monitoring the tank level as the black tank flush was running just to make sure I wouldn’t overflow and I ran the flush for at least 5 mins and it never even registered 1/3 full and there really wasn’t a ton of water that flushed out when I opened the drain. Is that normal?
