I recall reading a post, not sure where, a fellow RV'r built his own macerator drain for his black-water tank using a sink garbage disposal. He claimed it worked great. I was going to get the Shurflo-Flojet for a bit over $200 but the reviews are mixed. The other one, Sewer Solutions or something which uses a garden hose to "macerate & pump the waste has mixed reviews as well & seems terribly pricy for what it is.
The garbage disposal actually seems to be a good idea. After all, it IS a macerator & does "pump" some pretty tough stuff so should have no problem with waste from the black-water tank. I need to be able to run a 3/4" to 1" line from the trailer to the sewer drain....which is the outlet from a house. I have to run the hose about fifty feet.
I already have the basic idea how to build this but was hoping to find anymore info out there...so if anybody knows or has comments/feedback, etc., you know what to do!
