Flush King @ Camping World

Check out the weekly “Internet Only” specials at Camping World. This week, they have a couple of neat tables along with the Flush King
. We have a similar product and it works very well. Keep in mind, it works the best if your actual holding tank is close to the external drain hookup. In our new trailer, the hookup is farther from the tank, so the water pressure isn’t as strong.

I have the Flush King and it works great. If what you have similar to this product is the one without the stop gate, there is no comparison. With the Flush King, you dump the tank then close the Flush King stop gate. When you turn the water on it will definitely backfill your tank. I have learned to allow the water to run back into the tank for about 2 minutes and then shut the water off then pull the dump gate again on the Flush King. The Flush King isn’t dependent on water pressure to hold the backpressure into the tank, the closed stop gate does it. This is best done if you have a full hookup site, not recommended if you are holding up the line at a dump station.
Posted by Charlie on 10/13/04Hey thank you so much for posting this, Charlie! Yes, I just asked my husband, and what we have DOES NOT have the stop gate. What you are saying makes sense. The product we have worked just fine with our older trailer. Now we will have to upgrade to the Flush King.
Thank you!

My statement above about timing it for two minutes was learned the hard way. I know for a fact that if you lose track of the time while backfilling either of the tanks, they will eventually make it out through the roof vent.Posted by Charlie on 10/17/04
