codgerbill said:If I remember correctly the effluent began coming up thru the shower drain... It was a greenish color (probably the chemical he used in it). I dunno how its possible unless his shower is drained into the black tank (2006 Pace Arrow 38L). Needless to say it was a mess and he was still cleaning up as we left.
I don't quite see how that is possible. Isn't the toilet the only thing that empties into the black tank? Shower and sink water should go into the gray water tank. Are the black and gray water tanks connected somehow? I didn't think that they were. If they are, is it possible for the black tank to back-flow into the gray tank and for that combined water to back up into the shower? Maybe that RV had some creative / non-standard plumbing? :-\
