Type of review

Worked once I thought it was a great deal but a few minutes after first use the hose broke off at the factory end outside the tank. I bought a 6ft hose from a local store to replace but haven't had a chance to put it on yet. I'm hoping the unit didn't freeze in the tank causing the hose to build up pressure and rupture the factory end. Worst of all, I was bragging about it at a rural campground to friends who also had their own RVs, and while they were using it, it exploded right in front of…

Something let me down

The orange plastic clamps seemed flimsy and didn't fit my 1/2" hoses (too small ID) so I threw them away and used stainless steel clamps. There is an inexplicable leak at the nozzle which I suspect is due to the plastic fittings. This is just my opinion but I can't stop the leak and there really aren't any other solutions. Why not just include a whole short garden hose instead of all those parts? Finally, the hose connector must come with a bracket, although it was clear at the time of purchase

  • Van parts and accessories

It really works: Van parts and accessories

Very easy to install but the instructions are a bit vague. The main part I understood from the leaky fittings is that there are two male nipples of different lengths and each one fits a different fitting. The leaks stopped as soon as I inverted the hose between the skirt and the tank. I like the convenience of just clipping the hose to the apron and not having to crawl under the RV to use it. This was used in conjunction with a Valterra A70 No Fuss Flush, also purchased here at Revain. It works
